The purpose of this meeting is to focus on the future of the chapter. First, we will bring together representatives from a number of civilian agencies so that we can discuss their roles in cybersecurity and infrastructure protection and how InfraGard relates to their work. We will also discuss some future projects, including home cybersecurity education and — at long last! — some organizational documents for the chapter. This is an important meeting to help set our direction for the next twelve months.
