The United States is a major consumer, contributor, and target in cyberspace. This talk will describe cyber threats, roles and responsibilities, technology, and policy considerations for achieving American self-defense in cyber. We will discuss options for defending against cyberattack, achieving deterrence, and the interplay between offense and defense. We will consider various perspectives from computer science and engineering, political science, and economics.
Dr. Josiah Dykstra is a senior researcher at RTX BBN Technologies. He solves ambitious problems by blending high-end security research with a real-world attacker mentality to fortify the code powering the world's most critical organizations and devices.
Dr. Dykstra previously worked for 19 years at the National Security Agency (NSA) where he advised leadership and employees on technical matters for integrated cybersecurity operations and provided technical direction on projects and programs that enabled high impact operational effects. He held a variety of technical and leadership positions including as a senior researcher within NSA's Research Directorate studying computer network operations.

Build Your Digital Brand Workshop
Turn your strengths into a standout digital brand!
We're excited to announce that GEARS is partnering with the UMBC Career Center and the Office of Professional Programs to bring you -
BYDB: Building Your Digital Brand, an interactive workshop designed to help you intentionally shape your online presence in today's competitive job market.
📅 April 28
🕔 5:00–7:00 p.m.
📍UMBC Commons, Room 329
Your digital presence plays a critical role in how employers, recruiters, and professional contacts perceive you, often before you ever submit an application or attend an interview. This event will help you take control of that narrative, starting with LinkedIn.
We'll explore the value of personal branding and why LinkedIn remains one of the most powerful tools for networking, career exploration, and professional visibility. Then we'll move beyond theory and into action through guided, hands-on activities where you will:
Identify your brand core and craft a clear value proposition statement
Translate your strengths, interests, and goals into a brand identity board
Create a custom, branded LinkedIn cover photo
Participate in a show-and-tell to share your work and gather inspiration from peers
Whether you're actively job searching, networking, or simply refining how you present yourself online, you'll leave with a clearer message, stronger visuals, and tangible updates ready to apply to your profile.
Snacks will be provided! Come with a device (laptop/iPad) to be able to work together!
We hope to see you there; drop any questions in the comments below and share this with your fellow grad students!
Save your spot now through this Handshake link!
