 - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n\n   In today's volatile geopolitical landsca
 pe\, the security of critical\n   infrastructure—such as power grids\, w
 ater supplies\, and\n   transportation systems—has never been more impor
 tant. As global\n   tensions rise\, these vital systems increasingly becom
 e targets for\n   cyber threats from state and non-state actors alike. Thi
 s talk will\n   delve into the evolving landscape of cyber threats targeti
 ng these\n   essential services\, highlighting notable attacks and their d
 evastating\n   impacts. We will explore the methodologies employed by mali
 cious\n   actors\, including advanced persistent threats and ransomware\, 
 and\n   examine real-world case studies to understand the stakes involved.
  The\n   discussion will also cover the latest strategies and technologies
  for\n   protecting critical infrastructure\, emphasizing a defense-in-dep
 th\n   approach.\n\n   SpeakerBio:  Soledad Antelada Toledano\, Google -Of
 fice of the CISO\n\n   Soledad Antelada Toledano is the Security Technical
  Program Manager at\n   Google. She previously worked for Berkeley Lab\, o
 ne of the most\n   prestigious scientific centers in the world and one of 
 the first nodes\n   of ARPANET\, the forerunner of the Internet. Soledad w
 as the first\n   woman in the history of the Cybersecurity department at B
 erkeley Lab.\n   After specializing in 'penetration testing' for several y
 ears\, Soledad\n   also develops research and advancement tasks for intrus
 ion detection\n   systems\, monitoring of high capacity networks and visio
 n and research\n   exercises on how cybersecurity will evolve in the next 
 10 years\n   adopting techniques of Artificial Intelligence for intrusion 
 detection\n   and handling of BigData generated by monitoring tools. Soled
 ad has\n   combined her work at the Berkeley lab in recent years with the\
 n   responsibility of being the head of security for the ACM / IEEE\n   Su
 percomputing Conference\, the annual supercomputing conference in the\n
