Abstract:
The threat such as "cyberterrorism or cyber war" in the case of using the network and IT infrastructure has been a risk of not only the government but entire society. On the other hand, the usage of new technology such as 'Cloud computing' should be considered with the workaround, and we should consider how to hedge against risk. This lecture addressed the use of cloud computing to respond to the unconventional risk of cyber terrorism from the perspectives of businesses and researches.


This event is free and open to the public.
