TITLE: How I learned to love the CIA and Started Worrying 
       about Infrastructure Protection

SPEAKER: MARY CULNAN, Commissioner, President's Commission on Critical 
         Infrastructure Protection

COMMENTATORS: Alan Davidson, Center for Democracy and Technology
              Peter Wilson, RAND Corporation 
         
In October 1997, the President's Commission on Critical 
Infrastructure Protection (PCCIP) sent its final report to 
the White House. Critical infrastructures represent the nation's 
"life support systems" and include information and communications, 
banking and finance, energy, transportation and vital human 
services. The Commission's mission was to assess the scope and 
nature of physical and cyber threats and vulnerabilities for these
infrastructures, identify legal and policy issues that are raised 
by infrastructure assurance, and propose recommendations and an 
implementation strategy. The presentation will describe the 
factors that led to the creation of the PCCIP, the Commission's 
process, and its findings and recommendations.
