The Cyberspace Information Operations Study Center will host its first symposium “Air Force Symposium 2008 – Cyberspace” at Maxwell AFB, Montgomery, AL, July 15 – 17, 2008. This event is the next in a series of symposiums produced by Air University, a major component of Air Education and Training Command and the intellectual and leadership center of the Air Force. Co-hosted by Headquarters 8th Air Force, Barksdale AFB, LA and U.S. Strategic Command, Offutt AFB, NE, the symposium engages military, industry and academic participants with a desire to discuss a broad spectrum of topics affecting the cyberspace mission.

Who Should Attend:
Servicemembers, business leaders, researchers, and academics who wish to participate in advancing the U.S. Air Force mission to “fly and fight” in cyberspace. The diversity and expertise of the speakers and the practical, participatory focus of the workshops (Doctrine and Concepts of Operations, Policy and Law, and Presentation of Capabilities) assures that all who attend have the opportunity to contribute actively to meeting the security challenges of the 21st century in cyberspace.

Air University Commander’s Reception:
Symposium participants are invited to a stand-up reception hosted by the Air University Commander on Tuesday, July 15. The reception will be held in the Grand Ballroom at the Maxwell AFB Officers Club. Heavy hors d’oeuvres will be provided, as well as a cash bar.
