For immediate release

The organizers of Critical Infrastructure Protection & Resilience North America (CIPRNA) are delighted to announce that Trusted Computing Group (TCG) are Platinum sponsors at the 2024 event, March 12-14, Lake Charles, Louisiana

Through open standards and specifications, Trusted Computing Group (TCG) enables secure computing. Benefits of TCG technologies include protection of business-critical data and systems, secure authentication and strong protection of user identities, and the establishment of strong machine identity and network integrity. Trusted hardware and applications reduce enterprise total cost of ownership and support regulatory compliance.

Through its member-driven work groups, TCG enables the benefits of trust in computing devices from mobile to embedded systems, as well as networks, storage, infrastructure, and cloud security. More than a billion devices include TCG technologies. Virtually all enterprise PCs, many servers and embedded systems include the TPM; while networking equipment, drives and other devices and systems deploy other TCG specifications, including self-encrypting drives and network security specifications.

The Nation’s critical infrastructure provides the essential services that underpin American society. Proactive and coordinated efforts are necessary to strengthen and maintain secure, functioning, and resilient critical infrastructure – including assets, networks, and systems – that are vital to public confidence and the Nation’s safety, prosperity, and well-being.

Cyber threats have become a prominent and regular feature of society, with regular attacks against critical infrastructures, including power, communications, and transport networks.

The CIPRNA conference delivers a high-quality discussion, looking at developing on the theme of previous events in helping to create better understanding of the issues and the threats, to help facilitate the work to develop frameworks, good risk management, strategic planning and implementation.

Neil Walker, CEO of CIPRNA, said, “We are delighted of the support of the Trusted Computing Group with the Platinum Sponsorship of CIPRNA, which will help showcase the importance of security in technologies in our critical infrastructure for a more resilient network. The continued threats to the internet and IT infrastructures of our critical assets poses a biggest challenge to our industries to ensure the stability of our economic society.”

CIPRNA 2024 brings together leading stakeholders from industry, operators, agencies, and governments to collaborate on securing North America, and will reconvene in Lake Charles on 12th-14th March 2024 – www.ciprna-expo.com.
