Industrial & National Security Compliance

Continued business growth in the defense, high technology, oil & gas, and telecom industries, among others, is contingent upon protecting your data and continuingly monitoring the strength of your internal security measures. Not only do you have to worry about your internal classified and unclassified data, but federal regulations, such as the NISPOM and DSS procedures, provide strict compliance guidelines for protecting the best interests of our national security. In-house security and trade compliance staff, as well as outside legal counsel, must understand the intricacies of meeting DSS expectations to get the deal done. Amid new and emerging risk factors, it is critical to be up to speed on the latest strategies for preventing severe fines, loss of business and confidential property, and significant harm to your company’s reputation.

ACI’s 2nd National Summit on Industrial & National Security Compliance is one of the few opportunities to meet and learn from senior-level decision makers within the U.S. government and industry. Gain practical insights from leading legal, compliance, security and trade executives from the most prestigious firms in the country. You will benefit from an invaluable opportunity to hear the experiences of others and see how other companies are dealing with counterintelligence threat assessments, cybersecurity risk management, FOCI mitigation, and CFIUS review roadblocks as mergers and acquisitions continue to make a comeback.

ACI has developed this program through extensive market research, creating panels that hit on the most complex and onerous challenges facing companies today. This unique event brings together a diverse set of speakers, who will deliver the tools needed for administering a strong security compliance program across your company.
