On August 12th, FBI Omaha will be hosting our second annual #Agriculture Threats Symposium at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. We invite everyone devoted to protecting our nation’s food, feed, and biofuel supply from cyber, terrorism, criminal, and nation state threats. See registration link below. Last year's conference brought together over 300 attendees from 17 states to talk about protecting this critical infrastructure segment and offering resources and guidance for the sector to prevent, detect, and mitigate these threats. Agricultural security is #nationalsecurity. 

When FBI Director Christopher Wray traveled to Omaha in August 2022,  he spoke directly about combating threats to U.S. farm production: “If the agriculture sector ever suffers a serious cyber disruption, the effects will be felt across the country and across the spectrum — from the farms in your states to dinner tables across America.” 
 
Attendees will include participants from the private sector, law enforcement, government, and academia.

To register, please visit https://lnkd.in/g2EBshne and complete the registration process. Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging associated with attendance, and all attendees must be US citizens. Please direct any questions to AgThreatsSymposium@fbi.gov

American technology and #innovation has made our farms, our ranches, our food processing industry more productive and efficient than ever before. With the advent of #precisionagriculture, autonomous tractors and agriculture robotics, next generation wireless technology, new technology used to raise livestock, and innovative research in food production, environmental stewardship, human nutrition, and business development, our farms are more productive then they have ever been.

But it also makes us more vulnerable to cyber threats. And in today's digital world, cyber actors are targeting our food and agricultural sector more and more. A few years ago, ransomware actors hit six of our nation's grain cooperatives, and some of these co-ops had to halt production completely, which is exactly what these cyber actors wanted to hold our information hostage and to profit from our vulnerabilities.

We are grateful for our partnerships with USDA, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Nebraska Farm Bureau, Iowa Farm Bureau, The Combine at Invest Nebraska,National Counterterrorism Innovation, Technology, and Education Center (NCITE), Nebraska Department of Agriculture Director Sherry Vinton, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship Mike Naig, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Nebraska Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources  and many others.
