 n   Weaponization of GPS and AIS Spoofing [[MARITIME]]\n   When: Saturday\
 , Aug 13\, 16:00 - 16:59 PDT\n   Where: Caesars Forum - Alliance 314 - 319
  (ICS Village) - [1]Map\n   Speakers:Gary Kessler\,Tyson B. Meadors\,Dr. D
 iane Maye Zorri\n\n   SpeakerBio:Gary Kessler \, Principal Consultant\n   
 Fathom5 will be hosting a number of Grace Maritime Cyber Testbed\n   conso
 les at the ICS Village to support the SeaTF activity. This\n   "lunchtime 
 tutorial" will discuss the protocols associated with the\n   Automatic Ide
 ntification System (AIS)\, the widely-used maritime\n   situational awaren
 ess system and part of the Grace Navigation console.\n   This mini-tutoria
 l will describe the AIS protocol and transmission\n   format used between 
 vessels using radio transmission.\n\n   SpeakerBio:Tyson B. Meadors \, Cyb
 er Warfare Engineer\n   LCDR Tyson B. Meadors is a Navy Cyber Warfare Engi
 neer currently\n   assigned to Cryptologic Warfare Activity SIXTY SEVEN. H
 e previously\n   served both afloat and ashore as a Surface Warfare Office
 r and Naval\n   Intelligence Officer. From 2017-2018\, he was a Director o
 f Cyber\n   Policy on the National Security Council Staff\, where he advis
 ed the\n   President\, Vice President\, and multiple National Security Adv
 isors on\n   cyber operations policy\, technology\, and threats and helped
  draft\n   multiple national-level strategies and policies. Prior to\n   c
 ommissioning from the US Naval Academy\, worked as a journalist and\n   ta
 ught English in the People’s Republic of China. He is the only\n   naval
  officer to ever defeat a guided missile destroyer in a\n   real-world eng
 agement and is also the founder and CEO of Ex Mare\n   Cyber\, a cybersecu
 rity consultancy.\n\n   SpeakerBio:Dr. Diane Maye Zorri \, Associate Profe
 ssor of Security\n   Studies\n   Dr. Diane Maye Zorri is an associate 
 professor of security studies\n   at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University 
 and serves as a nonresident\n   senior fellow for Joint Special Operations
  University. Prior to\n   Embry-Riddle\, Diane was a visiting assistant pr
 ofessor at John Cabot\n   University in Rome\, Italy. She writes and does 
 research on issues that\n   involve governance\, U.S. defense policy\, and
  cybersecurity. Diane\n   started her career as an officer in the U.S. Air
  Force and later\n   worked in the defense industry. During the Iraq War\,
  she worked for\n   Multi-National Force – Iraq in Baghdad\, managing 
 over four hundred\n   bilingual\, bicultural advisors to the U.S. Departme
 nt of State and the\n   U.S. Department of Defense. She is a graduate of
  the U.S. Air Force\n   Academy\, the Naval Postgraduate School\, and Geor
 ge Mason University.\n\n   Description:\n   Maritime transit relies on the
  set of global navigation satellite\n   systems (GNSS)\; the position\, na
 vigation\, and timing (PNT) systems\n   they enable are crucial for traver
 sing narrow straits and littoral\n   waters. GNSS also facilitates the Aut
 omatic Identification System\n   (AIS) for situational awareness\; AIS tra
 cings also provide the log of\n   a ship’s movement. The Global Position
 ing System (GPS) and AIS\n   contain a host of vulnerabilities\, however\,
  and vessels around the\n   world\, from the Black Sea to the Port of Shan
 ghai\, have been spoofed.\n   Both AIS and GPS spoofing have escalated in 
 their seriousness in the\n   last five year\, to the point where spoofing 
 has become weaponized.\n   These disruptions are provocative\; adversary n
 ations can create false\n   AIS tracks to support virulent narratives\, co
 untering the interests of\n   U.S. and our allies. Because of grave danger
  these threats entail\, it\n   is essential that policymakers and maritime
  operators understand the\n   risks\, mitigation techniques\, and implicat
 ions of GPS and AIS\n   spoofing.\n   '\n\n   1. https://defcon.outel.org/
