Watch this 41-minute keynote address from BSidesCharm 2025 featuring Harry Coker, Secretary of the Maryland Department of Commerce and former United States National Cyber Director, as he explores the critical intersection of cybersecurity and national security. Learn how adversaries have already infiltrated critical infrastructure not merely for espionage but in preparation for potential conflict. Understand why traditional national security frameworks must evolve to recognize cyberspace as an active battlefield where America faces daily attacks. Discover the urgent reforms Coker outlines to protect the nation's digital foundation, from implementing basic security protocols to creating shared cybersecurity resources for vulnerable municipalities that cannot defend against nation-state threats. Benefit from Coker's extensive experience spanning nearly 20 years as a naval officer, 17 years in CIA leadership positions, and his service as the third-highest ranking official at the NSA, where he earned numerous distinctions including the National Intelligence Distinguished Service Medal.
