A New Plan to Break the Cycle of Destructive Critical Infrastructure Hacks

Summary

Nutrition label

75% Informative

UnDisruptable27 aims to communicate with utility operators, municipalities, and regular people in creative ways about protecting critical infrastructure now.

The project will start as a pilot with a $ 700,000 grant for the first year through Craig Newmark Philanthropies' Cyber Civil Defense coalition.

The key goal is to foster new discourse about these challenges inspired by the disaster management tenets “inform, influence, inspire”.

UnDisruptable27 is launching this week for visibility among attendees at BSides as well as the other conferences, Black Hat and Defcon , that will run through Sunday in Las Vegas .

The goal is to combine the hacker mentality and, essentially, a call for volunteers with plans to work with creative collaborators on producing engaging content.
