Very
well
any
other
members
of
the
committee
with
special
introduction
at
all
all
right
great
seeing
none.
So
everybody
knows
what
we're
going
to
do.
We
do
have
some
scheduling
conflicts
that
we
have
got
to
work
around
today,
so
we
are
going
to
flop
the
two
issues
on
the
agenda
here
and
start
out
on
the
sports
wagering
front.
So
at
this
time,
director,
Eads
and
company,
if
you
guys
could
please
come
on
up
to
the
committee
table,
please.
A
And
if
you
could,
obviously
we
are,
as
we
I
hope,
was
communicated
and
staffed
with
you
guys
was
concerns
about
funding
and
particularly
for
the
regulatory
enforcement
positions
that
you
we
know.
You'll
have
to
add
and
be
able
to
run
through
some
discussion
on
that.
So
please
introduce
yourself
for
the
record
and
proceed
Mr.
F
Chairman
I'm
gonna
kick
things
off
here:
Senate
Majority,
Leader,
Damon,
Thayer,
District
17.
and
the
Senate
sponsor
of
the
sports
betting
bill
along
with
former
representative
Koenig
and
representative
Meredith
representative
Meredith
was
going
to
join
me
today,
but
he
had
a
scheduling
conflict
so
I'm
going
to
take
it
from
the
legislative
perspective.
F
So,
five
years
after
the
famous
pasta
decision
was
made
by
the
United
States
Supreme
Court,
stating
that
the
legalization
of
sports
betting
was
now
up
to
the
states
not
to
the
federal
government,
an
excellent
10th
Amendment
decision
that,
whether
you're
for
or
against
it,
you
should
applaud
the
decision.
Sports
betting
is
now
legal
in
Kentucky,
after
the
passage
of
House
Bill
551
in
the
most
recent
legislative
session.
Like
all
other
bills,
it
became
law
on
June
29th.
F
If
you
have
questions
about
the
implementation
schedule,
director
Eads
will
handle
those,
but
chairman
McDaniel
informed
me
that
he
wanted
to
talk
about
funding
in
today's
committee.
Some
of
you
in
this
committee
are
also
members
of
Licensing
and
occupations
the
bill
that
the
bill
was
assigned
to
the
committee
that
the
bill
was
assigned
to
in
the
house
and
the
Senate.
So
you
understand
the
policy
questions
and
finer
points
of
it
that
maybe
some
of
the
other
members
don't
so
since
this
is
a
funding
Committee,
just
a
quick
review.
F
So
as
as
also
noted
before,
just
a
reminder,
history
shows
that
90
to
95
percent
of
sports
betting
is
going
to
take
place
online
in
about
five
to
ten
percent
will
take
place
at
the
retail
locations.
We
were
asked
why
we
put
it
at
the
racetracks.
Well,
that's
where
gambling's
already
occurring,
so
it
seemed
like
a
natural
fit
and
also
in
other
states.
F
The
brick
and
mortar
Sports
books
were
located
at
casinos,
professional
sports
teams
and
race
tracks,
and
since
we
do
not
have
either
of
the
first
two
but
do
have
nine
race
tracks,
it
seemed
like
a
natural
fit
plus.
It
also
is
a
good
way
to
help
our
race
tracks
attract
new
fans
to
their
paramutual
products.
F
So
that's
all
I
wanted
to
say
today.
The
racing
commission
has
done
a
really
good
job,
keeping
representative
Meredith
and
me
up
to
date.
F
I
get
weekly
reports
on
the
progress,
one
of
the
benefits
of
being
one
of
the
last
states
to
implement
sports
betting
in
America
is
we
had
37
or
38
other
jurisdictions
to
look
to
for
Best
Practices,
as
well
as
things
that
didn't
work
and
from
what
I've
been
told
there
have
been
half
a
dozen
other
states
that
the
racing
commission
has
collaborated
with
on
on
the
development
of
the
regs,
which
were
announced
last
week,
I
have
full
confidence
in
the
racing
commission's
ability
to
promulgate
these
regs
and
oversee
sports
betting.
F
They've
been
the
racing
commission
has
been
overseeing
the
paramutual
product
in
this
country.
This
Commonwealth
for
100
years,
including
the
full
implementation
of
historical
horse
racing
simulcasting,
Advanced,
deposit
wagering
and
going
back
100
years.
The
original
paramutual
wagering
on
live
racing
I'm
going
to
let
director
Eads
introduce
herself
and
her
colleague
at
full
disclosure.
F
Jamie
ease
is
a
longtime
friend
of
mine.
We
used
to
work
together
at
the
Breeders
Cup
back
a
couple
of
lifetimes
ago.
It
feels
like,
and
she
has
worked
as
an
employee
at
the
horse
racing
commission
through
three
gubernatorial
administrations.
Now
she
originally
started
out
as
the
administrator
of
the
Kentucky
breeders
incentive
fund,
which
was
created
by
legislation
that
I
authored
in
2004,
and
she
was
most
recently
promoted
to
Executive
Director
by
the
governor,
so
I'm
going
to
turn
things
over
to
her
and
Jennifer
for
their
introductions
and
their
report.
G
Thank
you
Senator
there.
My
name
is
Jamie
Eads
I'm,
the
executive
director
for
the
Kentucky
Horse
Racing
Commission,
better
and
I've,
brought
with
me
Jennifer
Woolsey,
who
is
our
general
counsel,
I,
want
to
thank
chair,
McDaniel
and
Petrie
for
inviting
us
to
give
an
update
on
the
implementation
of
house
bill.
551.
G
the
bill
was
signed
into
law
on
March
31st
and
immediately
the
Kentucky
Horse
Racing
commission,
along
with
the
support
of
the
public
protection
cabinet,
met
and
put
a
timeline
out
and
strategized
how
to
meet
that
timeline.
So
we'd
be
live
for
the
NFL
for
the
start
of
the
NFL,
along
with
the
timeline
we
delegated.
Who
would
be
doing
what
to
make
sure
we
stayed
on
top
of
things
and
we've
been
meeting
weekly
since,
since
the
bill
passed,
we've
had
meetings
with
other
jurisdictions,
where
Sports
wagering
already
exists:
Colorado
Indiana,
Nevada,
New,
Jersey,
Massachusetts.
G
G
We
immediately
entered
into
an
agreement
with
gaming.
Laboratories
International
GLI
is
considered
the
experts
in
sports
wagering
of
the
36
so
jurisdictions.
They
have
helped
roll
it
out
in
25
of
those
most
recently
in
Massachusetts,
so
we
felt
good
about
having
we
already
have
a
relationship
with
them.
They
test
our
HHR
product
right
now
for
us,
we
already
had
some
relationships
built
with
them
that
allowed
for
us
to
enter
into
an
agreement
and
they've
been
working
with
us
through
this
entire
process.
G
G
We've
also
are
in
the
process.
Throughout
this
process
we've
been,
we
were
graciously
granted
14
positions
that
we're
currently
posting
and
filling
one
of
the
or
one
of
those
started.
July
1
another
one
started:
July
16th.
We
have
eight
more
coming
in
on
August
one
six
more
coming
in
the
middle
of
August
and
two
more
we've
had
to
repost,
but
these
are
auditor
of
special
investigations,
auditing
positions,
licensing
positions,
a
director
to
oversee
the
process.
G
We've
also
have
two
rfps
that
we
anticipate
to
be
filed
this
week,
which
will
help
with
the
auditing
of
the
technical
standards
as
well
as
compliance,
and
so
we
are
eager
and
ready
to
begin
taking.
Wagers
on
September
7th
and
our
retail
locations
and
September
28th
online
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
we
could.
A
Very
good,
well,
I'll
kick
off,
because
I
was
had
a
particular
interest,
not
so
much
in
your
regs
I'll.
Leave
that
to
you
either
in
the
gaming
industry,
but
more
about
the
the
finances
surrounding
the
positions
that
you
need
to
add
in
various
contacts
that
I've
had
I've
heard
numbers
thrown
around
anywhere
from
a
couple
of
dozen
to
maybe
as
many
as
a
hundred
people
to
handle
regulation
and
enforcement
is
potentially
necessary.
Obviously
you
testified
to
14.
A
is
14
going
to
be
an
adequate
number
and
then
secondarily
how
because
I
don't
think
we
made
a
supplementary
appropriation
yet
obviously
you
end
up
with
restricted
funds
down
the
line.
But
do
you
have
money,
or
are
you
making
some
kind
of
a
supplemental
request
for
money
in
his
14
enough
positions?
For
you.
G
Initially,
we
have
asked
for
14
and,
as
we
sit
here
today,
I
feel
confident.
We
can
afford
that
as
Senator.
There
pointed
out
we're
taking
in
operator
licensees
right
now,
that'll
bring
in
four
to
four
and
a
half
million,
and
then
the
enabling
legislation
sets
out
funding
to
fund
the
staff.
Those
14
positions
will
do
they'll,
be
compliance
for
all
of
wagering,
so
it
won't
just
be
paid
for
out
of
sports.
G
A
A
But
you
know
the
Reds
have
a
sports
book
and
there
was
a
pretty
bad
case
that
is
I'm
watching
the
University
of
Cincinnati
and
University
of
Alabama.
Get
decimated
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
the
Integrity
of
all
of
it's
critical
right
and
I
want
to
make
sure
you've
got
the
money
that
we
know
where
the
money's
coming
from
to
get
you
off
the
ground
properly
and
make
sure
that
you're
confident
there.
Thank.
G
G
You
know
we've
been
regulating
per
Mutual
wagering
as
Senator.
There
pointed
out
for
over
100
years.
Most
recently
there
was
over
eight
billion
dollars
wagered
in
our
state,
and
we
managed
that
perfectly
with
a
team
of
two,
so
I
think
14
is
going
to
be
good.
Mr.
F
Chairman
I,
you
know
I
want
to
you
mentioned
Ohio
and
of
course
you
live
close
to
there,
and
our
districts
are
right
across
the
river
I'd
point
out
that
in
Ohio
they
have
professional
sports
teams,
they
have
casinos,
they
have
racinos
at
racetracks,
a
lot
more
locations,
a
lot
more
volume,
a
lot
more
population,
but
we're
going
to
do
things
better
than
Ohio.
We
usually
do
so.
I
have
no
doubt
in
this
case
that
that's
going
to
happen.
B
A
A
All
right,
very
good.
Next
up
we're
going
to
talk
about
cyber
security
in
the
cyber
security
centers
around
the
Commonwealth.
Let's
see
how
we
want
to
start
this
out.
A
If
we
could,
how
about
we
come
up,
let's
see
we'll
let
the
University
of
Louisville
start
out
since
that's
kind
of
the
the
Nexus
on
this
one
here
and
a
lot
of
people
will
call
we've
kind
of
had
an
ongoing
conversation
in
the
general
assembly
about
a
program
with
NSA
that
got
a
little
bit
sideways
last
time
and
unfortunately,
it
got
sideways
behind
closed
doors
rather
than
in
the
public
sphere,
and
I
think
that
it's
important
that
we
talk
about
these
things
in
the
public
sphere,
so
that
we
can
hopefully
advance
or
not
programs
like
this.
A
So
with
that,
if
you
guys
would
please
introduce
yourselves
for
the
record
and
feel
free
to
proceed.
H
Good
afternoon
I'm
Kim
chatzel
I'm,
the
six-month-old
President
of
University
of
Louisville
and
I
just
want
to
thank
both
the
two
co-chairs,
McDaniels
as
well
as
Petrie,
as
well
as
all
the
distinguished
members
of
this
committee
to
have
the
opportunity
to
be
here
this
afternoon,
and
these
are
my
two
colleagues
that
I'll
ask
to
introduce
themselves.
H
Thank
you,
I
I
want
to
take
the
opportunity
to
just
reinforce
the
importance
of
the
subject.
That's
being
talked
about
today.
Cyber
security,
83
percent
of
organizations
around
the
United
States
have
reported
a
Cyber
attack,
the
impact
that
it
has
on
business
and
not
just
business,
but
non-profits
government
agencies,
City
governments,
hospitals,
is
extraordinary
and
is
only
projected
to
be
able
to
increase.
H
We
all
are
aware
of
the
fact
that
Norton
Healthcare
121
of
their
clinics
and
hospitals
were
hit
at
the
end
of
May,
with
that
two
weeks
later,
there's
after
that,
they
were
still
not
recovered.
It
was
impacted
the
ability
to
conduct
Diagnostics
lab
tests.
People
were
backed
up
in
terms
of
the
patient
portals
and
also
last
Labor.
H
Day
Bardstown
connect
at
Bardstown
during
the
Labor
Day
weekend
had
a
Cyber
attack
that
took
it
down
for
18
hours,
losing
everyone's
email,
but
also
the
fact
that
credit
card
transactions
could
not
occur
on
that
busy
weekend
for
all
of
the
small
businesses
and
operators
that
were
trying
to
make
a
success
out
of
it.
So
it's
a
widespread
issue
that
is
so
important
for
us
to
be
able
to
to
deal
with.
H
It's
also
industry
training
to
be
able
to
provide
for
employees
to
be
able
to
not
allow
cyber
attacks
and
to
prevent
those
and
the
priorities
such
as
multi-function
authorization,
is
something
that
we
want
to
be
able
to
work
on
and
to
be
able
to
create
a
secure
environment
for
Kentucky's
businesses,
as
well
as
non-profits
schools
and
hospitals
to
operate.
I
just
want
to
commend
this
body
for
making
this
a
priority
and
the
legislature
to
put
this
as
a
priority.
H
I
want
to
commend
all
of
my
fellow
presidents
worked
very
closely
with
President
Jackson
over
the
last
few
months
to
be
able
to
have
conversations
so
that
we
can
come
up
with
a
collaborative
and
Collective
approach
and
we're
really
looking
forward
to
being
able
to
bring
that
forward.
So
again,
thank
you
so
much
for
making
this
a
priority.
You
have
my
gratitude
and
thank
you
for
your
leadership
on
this
important
topic
for
the
Commonwealth
and
for
everybody
that
lives
in
it.
So
thank
you
again.
B
J
Thank
you
again.
I'm
Gail
deploy
I'm
the
senior
Vice
Provost
at
the
University
of
Louisville
I
want
to
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
present
some
of
our
current
work
that
we're
doing
at
the
University
of
Louisville
in
the
areas
of
cyber
security,
education,
training
and
research.
J
In
today's
digital
era,
cyber
threats
have
become
increasingly
sophisticated
and
pervasive.
As
president
schatzel
just
mentioned,
we've
had
a
near
record
number
of
breaches
according
to
the
identity
theft,
Resource
Center
this
past
year
with
1800
breaches
and
more
than
80
percent
of
those
revealed
sensitive
personal
information.
J
Obviously,
cyber
security
breaches
cost
businesses
and
governments
billions
of
dollars
annually
so
as
advanced
persistent
threats,
ransomware
attacks
and
data
breaches
have
devastated
consequences
for
individuals,
organizations
and
even
Nations.
J
The
evolving
threat
landscape
requires
a
robust
Workforce
trained
in
cyber
security.
To
defend
against
these
tasks,
the
demand
for
cyber
Security
Professionals
is
growing
and
is
surpassed
by
surpassing
the
supply.
So
we
do
not
obviously
have
enough
people.
You
can
see
here
that
there's
over
four
thousand
unfilled
highly
paid
positions
in
cyber
security
in
Kentucky
alone,
and
we
do
not
have
the
workforce
available
currently
to
meet
those
by
providing
comprehensive
training
programs.
We
can
address
the
skills
Gap
and
ensure
highly
skilled
Workforce,
capable
of
defending
our
critical
infrastructure
and
sensitive
information.
J
J
Trained
professionals
strengthen
our
defense
against
cyber
threats,
safeguarding
critical
infrastructures
and
public
services.
A
strong
cyber
security
Workforce
attracts
businesses,
Fosters
Innovation
and
drives
Economic
Development.
The
University
of
Louisville
was
recently
awarded
a
3.4
million
dollar
Grant
from
the
National
Science
Foundation
to
help
grow
the
cyber
security
Workforce.
The
funding
will
cover
the
full
tuition
for
100
students
20
per
year
for
a
five-year
period
to
enroll.
In
the
Masters
in
computer
science,
degree
offered
through
the
JB
speed
School
of
Engineering
and
then
work
in
federal,
local
state
or
tribal
government
roles
upon
graduation.
J
J
This
was
piloted
at
uofl
in
2021
and
it
provided
training
to
more
than
500
First
Responders
from
law
enforcement,
Health,
Care,
I.T,
specialist,
firefighters,
along
with
transitioning
military
and
Veterans,
and
throughout
the
six-month
certificate
program,
participants
earned
technology,
industry,
badges
from
Google,
IBM,
Microsoft
and
others
adding
value
to
this
cyber
security
certificate
completion.
Many
of
those
who
have
participated
in
this
program
are
from
our
partner
institutions,
and
the
curriculum
developed
for
this
program
will
be
made
available
free
of
charge.
J
So
this
cyber
security,
Pathways
Coalition,
is
just
the
beginning
of
our
collaborations
with
others,
and
we
look
forward
to
partnering
with
all
interested
parties.
I
Yeah,
thank
you
Gail,
so
I
just
wanted
to
touch
on
a
couple
of
points
so
Dr
Dupuis
mentioned
there
are
4
000,
open
jobs
in
Kentucky
right
now,
so
this
is
a
Workforce
crisis.
We
all
know,
as
Gail
Dr
dupuin
mentioned,
there's
no
way
that
University
of
Louisville
can
fill
these
jobs
alone,
provide
all
the
training
that's
needed
alone,
but
working
together
we
can
build
coalitions
and
attract
the
federal
funding
needed
to
to
support
these
positions
and
train
these
individuals
to
fill
these
critical
roles
in
the
state
of
Kentucky.
I
Just
recently,
in
the
last
several
years,
we've
attracted
over
10
million
dollars
in
funding
to
support
credentials
and
badging,
with
the
special
emphasis
on
industry
recognized
credentials.
So
the
emphasis
emphasis
on
industry
recognized
credentials
is
key
for
the
University
of
Louisville.
So
that
means
our
graduates
and
the
students
coming
out
of
these
programs
have
certifications
and
designations
that
are
recognized
by
the
companies
from
Microsoft
and
Google
and
AWS.
I
So
they
come
out
with
a
real
advantage
and
the
curriculums
that
we're
developing
are
available
not
just
to
University
of
Louisville
students
but
to
students
from
every
University
throughout
the
state
of
Kentucky.
So
we
can
build
these
Technologies
together
and
these
programs
together
and
that's
what.
F
I
Doing
right
now
so
Gail,
if
you
want
to
go
to
the
next
slide,
so
this
is
just
a
an
emphasis
here
on
some
of
the
programs
that
we've
run
recently
in
this
specific
non-academic
work
for
certificate
program.
We've
had
about
500
enrollees,
with
a
real
emphasis
on
Veterans,
so
we
want
we're
proud
of
that
focus
on
Veterans
transitioning
military
members
out
into
the
civilian
Workforce,
so
about
30
percent
of
that
those
500
enrollees
in
this
credentials,
program
that
I
mentioned
were
veterans
or
transitioning
military
members
or
their
spouses.
I
So
Gail
you
can
go
to
the
next
slide
there.
Here's
just
some
of
the
types
of
grants
that
we've
received
out
of
that
10
million.
These
are
a
little
bit
more
detail
here.
So
the
first
one
is,
with
the
support
of
the
Commonwealth
of
Kentucky,
we've
been
able
to
produce
about
184
graduates
from
our
military
program
in
the
last
three
years.
This
is
military
members-
spouses
transitioning
out
of
you,
know
their
careers
in
in
the
defense,
Department
of
Defense
or
other
parts
of
the
military
into
civilian
jobs.
I
Here
in
the
city
of
Kentucky,
the
next
grant
that
we
received
with
support
from
the
Department
of
Homeland
Security,
we've
trained
about
171
graduates
in
the
last
several
years
from
32
states.
So
this
is
a
program
it's
online
all
online
and
it
it
can
help
train
people
within
the
law
enforcement
department
as
well
as
other
types
of
you
know,
criminal
justice
employees,
so
that
can
help
fight
cyber
crime.
You
know
a
lot
of
times.
We
know
that
you
know
these
are
cyber
criminals
and
often
small
departments
within
different
parts
of
the
state.
I
Don't
always
have
the
training
they
need
to
to
meet
the
demands,
and
that's
what
this
program
is
focused
on.
Additionally,
teachers
in
the
state
of
Kentucky,
with
support
from
the
National
Science
Foundation
we've
been
able
to
train
31
teachers
into
accepted
them
in
a
program
for
2022
to
help
train
students
in
high
school
to
get
them
ready
for
careers
in
cyber
security.
Talent
pipeline
is
so
critical
for
these
types
of
jobs
and
getting
access
to
those
students
early
is
key,
and
so
that's
what
this
program
is
all
about.
I
It's
helping
teachers
have
the
skills
necessary
to
train
students
in
cyber
security
and
get
them
access
to
what
those
jobs
could
be.
These
highly
paid
jobs
that
we
know
exist
throughout
the
state
of
Kentucky
next
slide,
yeah
all
right.
So
this
is
just
an
emphasis
on
the
cyber
security
Workforce
program.
We
have
support
from
the
National
Science
Foundation
we
have.
I
This
is
to
train
both
bachelors
and
master's
degree
students
at
the
University
of
Louisville,
and
they
will
receive
full
scholarships
for
dozens
of
students
at
the
University
of
Louisville's
focused
on
cyber
security
and
it's
3.4
million
dollars
from
the
National
Science
Foundation.
These
students
are
going
to
go
on
to
work
at
companies
throughout
the
state
of
Kentucky
and
Louisville
and
throughout
the
Commonwealth,
go
ahead.
Gail.
Thank
you.
So
next
we
have
I.
K
I
Want
to
emphasize
here
that
you
know
the
key
takeaway
is
that
we're
focused
on
supporting
the
Statewide
efforts
to
grow
our
cyber
security
Workforce,
and
we
have
the
experience
and
credentials
to
do
that.
To
help
be
a
part
of
that
to
attract
Federal
funding
to
grow
our
industrial
base
and
the
technologists
and
and
experts
that
we
know
we
need
to
be
able
to
secure
our
cyber
infrastructure.
I
It's
also
really
important
to
emphasize
that
we
have
been
recognized
from
the
national
cyber
command,
as
well
as
the
Strategic
command,
as
as
experts
in
this
field
and
we're
here
to
to
support
the
growth
of
the
state
of
Kentucky
within
cyber
security
and
uofl
has
the
ability
to
manage
these
large
grants
and
we've
we've
done
about
200
million
dollars
in
research
activity
over
the
last
year
and
we're
we're
here
to
support
that
for
the
and
grow
that
base
for
the
whole
state
of
Kentucky.
I
A
Good
we're
going
to
do
a
couple
questions
and
we'll
get
through
some
of
the
other
universities
as
well.
Senator
Frank
fromer
had
a
question.
L
I
It's
a
great
example,
so
exactly
that's
that's
the
point
is
we've
got
this
one
National
Science
Foundation
Grant,
to
train
those
teachers
and
it's
just
a
limited
number
of
qualified
applicants
that
we
can.
We
can
accept
into
the
program.
I
You
know
we
could
certainly
train
more
teachers
if
we
had
additional
funding
to
support
the
trainers
at
the
University
of
Louisville,
so
that
and
that's
the
talent
pipeline
right,
so
that
that
program
is
to
support
educating
High
School
teachers
so
that
they
can
provide.
You
know,
quality
education
to
high
school
students
and
give
them
that
early
exposure
to
cyber
security
career,
so
they
can
come
into
college
or
some
of
their
non-degree
credential
programs.
That
I
mentioned
at
the
beginning,
which
are
also
really
valuable
and
important.
A
A
Right
now,
all
right,
seeing
none
forget
Eastern
Kentucky.
Let's
try
to
do
eastern
western
Murray
and
Morehead.
Since
we've
got
seats
up
there.
Could
you
guys
all
come
up
at
once
and
make
your
individual
presentations
please?
But
just
so
we
don't
have
the
shuffling
back
and
forth
quite
as
much.
N
A
Very
well
Dr
Paulson.
If
you'd
like
to
proceed,
sir.
M
I
will
thank
you.
My
name
is
Derek
Paulson
I
am
the
dean
of
the
College
of
Justice
safety
and
Military
science
at
Eastern,
Kentucky,
University
and
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
allowing
me
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
this
committee
today
about
the
various
cyber
security
programs
that
we
have
at
Eastern,
Kentucky,
University
I
know
our
time
is
limited.
I
do
not
have
a
PowerPoint
presentation.
We
provided
some
handouts
for
your
packet
and
I'm,
going
to
provide
a
brief
overview
of
the
various
different
programs
that
we
have
at
Eastern
Kentucky
University.
M
At
this
time
we
currently
have
10
different
academic
programs.
We
have
three
undergraduate
programs:
computer
science,
cyber
Systems
Technology
and
a
digital
forensics
in
cyber
security
degree.
We
also
have
two
Master's
programs,
one
in
technology
management
with
a
cyber
systems
concentration
and
a
computer
science
degree
that
has
a
cyber
security
concentration.
In
addition
to
that,
we
have
five
different
certificates,
which
provide
credentials
to
students
on
a
smaller
number
of
credit
hours
that
they
need
to
have
and
in
those
five
different
Goods.
M
They
include
digital
forensics
network
security,
cyber
and
Security
Management,
intelligence
studies
and
one
that
I
will
talk
about
a
little
bit
more,
that
is
we're
just
launching
in
financial
Tech
and
cyber
crime.
M
One
of
the
important
things
that
we
do
at
Eastern
is
we
are
we
house,
the
Kentucky
State
Police
digital
forensics
lab,
which
is
a
fully
functioning
lab
in
partnership
with
our
department
of
computer
science
that
handles
all
of
the
Kentucky
State
police's
digital
forensics
investigation.
So
what
that
means
is
for
our
ongoing
investigations.
They
handle
all
the
digital
forensics,
which
could
be
analysis
of
hard
drives.
It
could
be
phones,
it
could
be
a
wide
variety
of
things
in
active
investigations.
In
addition,
that
lab
also
helps
provide
training
and
experience
to
students
through
internships
and
education.
M
Finally,
we
are
launching
a
brand
new
Financial
Tech
and
cyber
crime
certificate.
This
fall
that
is
being
funded
by
a
one
million
donation
from
the
Commonwealth
Credit
Union.
This
is
a
first
of
its
kind
program
in
the
nation
that
is
a
joint
collaboration
between
our
College
of
Business
and
our
College
of
Justice
safety
and
Military
science.
It
was
developed
with
input
and
guidance
from
the
financial
industry
and
federal
law
enforcement
in
order
to
provide
necessary
Workforce
education
for
this
critical
area
of
the
economy
and,
again,
I.
M
Think
our
colleagues
from
Louisville
set
the
stage
very
well
in
terms
of
the
importance
of
cyber
crime
and
cyber
security
within
the
state
of
Kentucky,
and
we're
just
again
providing
a
brief
overview
of
the
programs
that
we
have
at
EKU.
We
and
again
I'm
open
for
any
questions.
If
you
have
any.
N
Yeah
all
right!
Well,
let
me
let
me
just
share
you
all.
Have
my
presentation
in
your
in
your
packet?
I
certainly
don't
have
time
to
go
through
all
of
the
slides
on
that.
But
let
me
share
a
couple
of
key
pieces.
N
As
I
said,
I'm
the
director
of
the
Cyber
educational
Research
Center,
our
Center
was
created
with
House
Bill,
one
in
1997..
We
serve
as
the
program
of
Distinction
for
Murray
State
University
and
have
since
then
we
had
our
first
graduate
of
our
program.
In
2000,
we
created
our
program
to
manage
networks
that
was
our
Focus
to
manage
networks.
You
need
to
make
sure
that
you
understand
the
technical
and
how
to
translate
that
into
business
and
finance,
so
that
is
the
type
of
person
that
we
create
and
have
been
creating
for
more
than
20
years.
N
N
We
were
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
articulated
with
the
community
college
and
starting
in
2002,
we've
had
a
transfer
agreement
in
place
so
that,
if
you
complete
your
first
two
years
at
one
of
the
kctcs
schools
that
you
can
transfer
to
Murray
State
and
complete
your
cyber
security
network
management
degree
in
person
or
realizing
that
there's
some
places
across
Kentucky
that
may
not
want
to
travel
to
Murray.
We
also
offer
the
the
option
of
being
online.
N
So
it
is
completely
online
that
you
can
complete
your
cyber
security
degree
from
Us
online
and
have
been
doing
that
since
2002
2003,
we
received
our
first
NSF
grant
our
scholarship
for
service
Grant
back
in
2003.
Since
that
time
we
have
had
probably
more
than
15
contracts
with
Department
of
Education,
with
Homeland
Security
and
others
in
in
a
variety
of
of
cyber
security
and
networking
research.
N
Our
Center
has
evolved.
Just
like
the
threat
has
we
focus
in
three
primary
areas,
one
on
the
academic
side.
We
have,
in
addition
to
our
bachelor's
program.
We
have
a
master's
program
in
cyber
security
management
and
then
we
have
certificates
that
both
the
undergraduate
and
graduate
level.
We
have
a
strong
academic
program
that
not
just
focuses
on
the
technical
of
cyber,
but
how
to
how
to
manage
the
risk
and
translate
that
into
into
business.
We
are
a
center
for
academic
excellence
in
cyber
defense.
We
have
received
that
designation
as
well
we
last
year.
N
Actually,
the
CAE
program
has
a
competition
for
outreach,
which
is
another
important
piece
of
our
Center
and
and
of
all
the
caes
and
there's
three
or
four
hundred
of
them
across
the
country.
We
were
fourth
out
of
all
the
ce's
in
the
amount
of
Outreach
that
we
did
in
the
center
as
our
as
our
program
and
just
as
a
little
bit
of
bias.
The
three
ahead
of
us
have
a
role
in
the
in
the
National
structure
of
the
CE
program.
N
So
we
were
at
a
bit
of
disadvantage,
so
fourth
I'm
extremely
proud
of,
but
that
Outreach
includes
conferences
that
we
host
on
an
annual
basis.
I
think
this
year
will
be
our
18th
Annual
security
matters,
conference,
I.
Think
that's
right
and
we
do
a
spring
conference
a
fall
conference.
We
work
with
high
schools
in
our
region
on
on
training
and
and
exposing
their
students
to
cyber
security
issues.
To
hopefully
get
them
excited
about.
The
topic
I
have
recently
done.
N
Training
workshops
with
with
with
Kentucky
cities
with
other
state
organizations,
have
some
of
that
scheduled
coming
forward
as
well.
We
try
to
do
that
type
of
Outreach
to
make
sure
that
our
organizations
and
and
our
our
Commonwealth
is
safe
and
there's
a
lot
to
do
there.
We
are
also
the
lead
University
in
the
state
for
a
program
called
Pisces.
N
You
may
have
heard
that
from
from
the
Kentucky
office
of
Homeland
Security,
because
they're
the
the
lead
entity
for
the
state,
basically
for
small
communities
that
can't
afford
to
hire
someone
or
a
company
to
manage
and
and
monitor
their
Network
for
security
threats.
We
do
that
through
the
university
with
our
students
and
and
while
we're
the
lead.
There
will
be
other
universities
that
that
come
on
with
that,
as
we
have
more
local
governments
and
more
information
to
to
monitor,
to
be
clear.
N
It's
not
the
data,
so
there's
no
confidentiality
issue
or
privacy
issue
of
the
data
that
the
local
governments
have,
but
we're
able
to
look
at
the
packet
headers
and
be
able
to
detect
security
threats
to
our
local
governments.
It's
a
great
service
for
our
government
and
it's
also
a
great
opportunity
for
our
students
as
well,
and
let
me
just
say
there
was
there's,
been
a
little
bit
of
talk
about
the
the
pipeline
in
addition
to
the
Outreach.
N
In
addition
to
the
academics,
we
do
research
and
a
research
project
that
we
just
completed
was
with
a
national
non-profit
look,
but
specifically,
we
looked
at
across
Kentucky
the
amount
of
computer
classes,
security
classes
and
security
Pathways
at
our
high
schools
and
and
while
there
is
a
massive
need
across
the
country
across
the
Commonwealth
for
jobs
and
opportunities,
we're
certainly
what
our
research
identified
and
there's
there's
a
dashboard
that's
available.
Looking
at
that
is
that
there
are
certainly
more
work
to
be
done
at
the
K-12
and
we're
trying
to
do
that
as
well.
N
Other
research
that
we're
working
on
right
now
is
looking
at
residual
data
on
mobile
devices
once
you're
finished
with
them.
What
happens
when
you
turn
a
phone
in?
Is
there
data
left
on
there
and
and
what
happens
to
that
data?
And
just
let
me
say,
I,
wouldn't
turn
in
a
phone
a
lot
more.
That
I
could
talk
about.
I
mean
this
is
this
is
a
passionate
area
for
me
and
for
our
Center
and
and
I
could
take
an
hour.
N
I
could
take
a
day
and
share
about
what
we
do
and
if
you
would
like
for
me
to
sit
down
Jordan
our
governor
first
person,
that's
probably
sat
down
with
with
many
of
you.
If,
if
you
would
like
for
us
to
sit
down
and
talk
more
about
what
we've
been
doing
for
the
last
20
years
in
our
Center,
I
certainly
would
be
happy
to
do
it
and
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
O
O
A
K
O
I
can
see
it
on
my
screen.
Can
you
see
it
on
your
screen.
O
O
The
first
master's
program
that
we
have
is
a
cyber
security
data
analytics
program.
It's
a
very
recent
program.
It's
built
on
a
certificate
we
developed
in
2021.
O
The
certificate
is
a
stackable
certificate,
allowing
people
who
want
to
get
into
cyber
security
to
take
12
hours,
get
that
certificate,
and
then
hopefully
they
can
move
on
to
our
master's
program,
and
so
in
Fall
of
2022
we
started
our
master's
program.
We've
graduated
one
student
and
we
have
I
think
24
admitted
students
into
our
program
right
now.
O
The
program
has
the
following
concentrations.
If
you
look
at
those
concentrations,
those
concentrations
are
built
for
infrastructure
workers,
and
so
that
is
where
our
program
was
developed
for
and
you
can
see
the
different
types
of
infrastructure
workers
and
the
different
audiences
that
are
cyber
security
data.
O
And
so
this
is
a
College
of
Business
program,
and
so
our
emphasis
is
looking
at
those
policies
and
then
teaching
people
how
to
extract
and
transform
data
and
then
to
do
the
analysis
and
then
how
to
communicate
that
data
so
that
other
people
will
understand
what's
going
on.
So
that's
that's
our
first
program
at
WKU.
P
O
A
Seen
right
now,
very
good:
okay,
we
still
have
a
K-State
Moorhead
and
kctcs
and
NKU
on
our
regionals
and
we'll
jump
into
UK.
After
that.
K
K
Sure,
thank
you
very
much.
It's
an
honor
to
be
here
to
be
a
part
of
this
very
important
ecosystem,
tackling
a
very
important
problem,
because
I've
tried
to
confine
my
remarks
at
two
minutes.
I
can
refer
you
to
a
flyer
we
submitted
earlier
I'm
going
to
concentrate
on
a
few
things.
K
Nq
first
got
started
in
cyber
security
with
a
digital
forensics
program,
computer
science
coming
together
with
criminal
justice,
but
it
grew
very
fast
in
conjunction
with
the
launch
of
nku's
college
of
informatics,
so
like
some
of
our
some
of
our
schools
in
in
this
room
in
2015,
NKU
was
designated
a
center
of
academic
excellence
and
cyber
Defense
Education
by
the
Department
of
Homeland
Security
and
the
NSA,
and
has
been
so
ever
since
enrollment
has
grown
grown
amazingly
fast
in
this
area.
K
This
spring
this
past
spring
NKU
enrolled
over
440
students
in
cyber
security
related
degree
programs
I'm,
not
counting
their
certificates.
Now,
so
we
have
an
accelerated
online
Masters
oriented
to
Career
Changers,
simply
because
of
the
talent
need.
We
have
a
new
rigorous
cyber
security
bachelor's
program
and
a
cyber
security
track
in
our
I.T
undergraduate
program.
So
projections
actually
show
this
enrollment
more
than
doubling
over
the
next
two
years,
as
NKU
makes
this
the
undergraduate
cyber
security
track
also
available
online.
K
So
at
NKU
it's
I'm
sure
my
peers
were
committed
to
providing
Talent
where
there
was
a
great
shortage
of
professionals.
Our
Center
for
information
security,
Advisory
board
has
cyber
security
leaders
from
companies
such
as
U.S
Bank,
Great,
American,
Insurance
pay,
Corps,
Booz,
Allen,
Hamilton,
western
and
southern
and
even
uofl
health.
K
Our
jrg
cyber
threat
intelligence
lab
is
actually
based
on
the
security
operations
center
at
U.S,
Bank
and
and
these
companies
they
they
realize
it's
not
just
about
academics
right.
This
is
an
ultra
fast,
changing
field.
My
own
field
is
computer
science.
This
changes
faster
than
computer
science.
So
it's
about
getting
students,
Real,
World
Experience,
our
bachelor's
degree
in
cyber
security,
requires
experiential
learning
an
internship
or
a
co-op,
but
it
even
starts
earlier.
K
We
have
cyber
security
camps
for
high
school
students
and
this
this
summer
literally
right
now
as
we
speak,
we
have
25
students
in
Highland
Heights
at
a
National
Science
Foundation
NSA
gen,
cyber
Workshop
learning
cyber
security
at
National,
National
Grant
I
mean
we
get
extra
support
from
interreliance
and
I.T
Talent
Partnership
of
major
companies
such
as
Procter,
Gamble,
Fifth,
Third,
Bank
and
Kroger,
and,
let
me
end
this
is
almost
a
Sentimental
note,
because
it's
more
than
just
NKU,
so
one
of
the
earliest
physical
signs
of
Kentucky
cyber
security
success
was
in
something
called
the
Collegiate
cyber
defense
competition.
K
This
is
when
you
take
a
team
of
students,
typically
eight
students,
undergraduates
and
at
the
regional
level,
lock
them
in
a
room
for
36
hours
and
give
them
a
real
computer
network
to
protect,
while
the
judges
are
malicious
hackers
trying
to
take
them
down
so
NKU.
K
During
nearly
all
of
the
past
12
years,
nku's
team
has
been
scoring
in
the
top
two
of
the
entire
nine
State
Midwest
region
and
Kentucky's
considered
part
of
the
Midwest.
In
this
case,
it's
actually
there's
two
teams
that
regularly
buy
for
the
top
spot
in
the
Midwest
and
they're,
both
from
Kentucky
NKU
and
uofl.
Basically
to
win
the
state
of
Kentucky.
O
K
U
of
L
versus
NKU
and
they
are
regularly
at
the
top
of
the
region,
so
I
think
I
think
that's
a
point
of
Pride
for
our
state
and,
as
my
colleagues
have
pointed
out,
we
we
all
got
in
very
early
here
and
it's
a
point
of
Pride
and
at
NKU.
We
are
happy
to
play
a
role
in
this
ecosystem.
Thank
you.
Q
Yes,
as
I
said,
I'm
Larry,
Ferguson
I'm,
with
the
Kentucky
Community
and
Technical
College
system,
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
be
before
the
committee
today
out
of
our
16
colleges.
We
have
four
that
have
been
aggressively
involved
in
doing
cyber
security
education,
as
we
heard
from
the
first
presenter
today,
our
colleagues
at
the
University
of
Louisville.
There
are
4
000,
open
jobs
and
at
kctcs
our
primary
Mission,
and
our
vision
is
to
provide
the
skilled
Workforce
necessary
for
Kentucky,
which
is
why
we
too
are
also
involved
in
cyber
security
training.
Q
Two
of
our
colleges,
Bluegrass
Community
and
Technical
College
and
Owensboro
Community
and
Technical
College
have
been
deemed
centers
for
academic
Excellence
for
cyber
Defense.
Education
they've
worked
closely,
of
course,
in
development
of
that
curriculum
with
the
NSA
and
the
Department
of
Homeland
Security,
and
they
offer
an
associative
applied
science
and
Community
computer
and
information
technology
centered
on
cyber
security.
Q
It's
important
to
note
I
know
some
of
my
other
colleagues
have
said
that
they
also
are
centers
for
academic
Excellence,
but
there
are
less
than
300
of
those
in
the
U.S
and
only
83
out
of
those
300s
are
two-year
institutions,
and
so
we
have
two
of
those.
We
offer
four
different
tracks
and
secure
coding,
Network
defense,
cyber
forensic
cyber
science.
Q
All
things
I
can
promise
you
I,
don't
fully
understand
I'm,
just
representing
my
colleges,
but
within
that
we
have
seven
embedded
industry
credentials
or
certificates
that
they
pick
up
along
the
way
as
they
earn
that
associative
science
degree
and
we
work
with
all
of
our
University
Partners.
My
peers
sitting
beside
me
good
examples
of
that
in
providing
transfer
opportunities.
Q
If
those
individuals
who
earn
the
associative
science
degree
do
want
to
transfer
on
to
one
of
our
regionals
or
one
of
our
land
grant
universities
for
further
education,
we
have
two
other
colleges,
Big
Sandy,
Community
and
Technical.
College
is
getting
started
also
within
AAS,
focusing
on
network
defense
and
to
give
you
an
example
of
how
we
develop
these
types
of
programs.
Q
They've
actually
received
a
couple
of
Grants,
a
twenty
thousand
dollar
Grant
from
the
American
Association
of
community
colleges
to
get
started,
and
then
is
also
mentioned
by
other
presenters.
They
received
a
grant
three
hundred
thousand
dollars,
National
Science,
Foundation
Grant
and
that
was
utilized
to
train
faculty,
provide
the
adequate
faculty
with
the
experience
and
the
equipment
curriculum
things
along
those
lines
to
get
started
with
that
degree.
But
I
say
that
those
are
actually
three
of
the
colleges.
Q
The
fourth
would
be
Somerset
they're
right
now,
working
with
our
regional
creditor,
which
is
Saks
COC
to
be
approved
in
the
spring
of
24.
They
also
will
start
an
AAS
focused
inside
cyber
security,
but
out
of
our
16,
all
of
the
other
colleges
as
well
teach
courses.
They
may
not
necessarily
have
degree
programs
in
cyber
security,
but
they
are
teaching
courses
and,
just
over
the
past
24
months
to
36
months,
we've
graduated
460
students
actually
reaching.
You
know,
industry
recognized
credentials
in
cyber
security.
Q
An
interesting
part
of
all
this
is
many
of
those
students
when
we
dig
down
and
look
at
who
they
are
actually
have
Baccalaureate
degrees,
probably
being
earned
from
some
of
our
Kentucky
institutions,
but
they're
coming
back
for
that
expertise
to
further
their
career
plans
and
their
objectives
and
to
meet
the
needs
in
the
cyber
security
area,
particularly
in
our
work
with
health
care.
We
found
they
are
in
desperate
need
of
folks
with
these
types
of
credentials
and
do
not
necessarily
have
the
ability
to
recruit
some
of
those
folks
based
on
their
High
earning
potential.
Q
So
in
doing
all
of
that,
one
thing
that's
been
mentioned
before
I
can't
recall,
which
university
did
is
recruitment,
it's
trying
to
reach
out
into
our
communities
and
get
younger
folks
to
understand
what
these
opportunities
are.
As
we
know,
they
are
great
I
mean
it
literally
is
a
Workforce
crisis,
so
Big
Sandy
particularly
has
done
a
lot
of
Summer
Camps.
You
know,
based
around
teaching
younger
folks,
that
middle
school
age,
trying
to
entice
them
down
this
educational
pathway
and
occupational
Pathway
to
meet
this
Workforce
demand.
Q
So
a
lot
of
it
for
us
also
is
recruitment,
we're
looking
at
options.
How
would
we
do
some
of
this
through
our
dual
credit
offer
offerings,
which
you
all
know
we're
in
most
of
the
high
schools
within
Kentucky,
providing
dual
credit
opportunities,
and
so
those
are
other
things
that
we
are
looking
at.
To
do
last
thing
I
wanted
to
remember.
Mention
is
also
our
relationship,
at
least
with
kctcs,
with
the
Kentucky
chamber.
Many
of
you
are
probably
familiar
with
multiple
projects.
Q
They
have
ran
under
the
talent,
pipeline
management
model
and
one
of
those
that
they,
they
ran
recently
indicated
again
several
more
positions
in
this
area
and
they
do
not
always
require
a
baccalaureate
degree
as
much
as
they
require
that
industry
certification
to
meet
the
needs
of
those
employers.
So
in
essence,
that's
where
we
are,
you
know
it
takes
all
of
us.
I
think
it
was
said
with
the
first
presentation.
This
has
to
be
a
collective
effort
with
4
000,
open
jobs,
not
one
of
us
or
not.
Q
Even
the
entire
kctcs
system
can
meet
this
demand,
and
so
it's
very
rewarding
to
me
to
see
that
we're
working,
cooperatively
and
collaboratively
with
all
of
our
universities
to
ensure
that
we're
getting
this
work
done.
Thank
you.
R
Again,
my
name
is
John
Nelson
dean
of
the
Smith
College
of
Business
and
Technology
at
Morehead
State,
and
we
too
are
pleased
to
be
able
to
be
a
part
of
this
solution
to
addressing
these
Workforce
needs
and
cyber
security.
We
offer
a
Bachelor
of
Science
in
computer
science
with
a
track
in
cyber
security
that
we
began
during
the
fall
2020
semester.
R
Students
in
this
track
learn
the
fundamentals
of
cyber
security,
with
a
focus
on
topics
such
as
programming,
skills
related
to
computer
security,
network
security,
applied
cryptography
and
digital
forensics
through
the
coursework.
Our
students
are
prepared
to
enter
the
cyber
security
Workforce
and
begin
having
been
given
the
tools
to
support
public
and
private
sector
organizations,
prevent
data
and
information
breaches
and
accompanying
challenges
that
those
breaches
bring,
including
financial
and
reputational
losses.
R
We
welcome
the
opportunity,
like
all
of
our
colleagues
have
mentioned,
to
collaborate
across
the
state
to
address
the
workforce,
needs
related
to
cyber
security
and
we're
particularly
interested
in
enhancing
our
program
offerings
related
to
cyber
security
to
work
with
similar
programs
that
have
dated
needs,
such
as
our
space
science
program,
where
there
are
sensitive
and
large
amounts
of
data.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
welcome
any
questions
as
well
again.
A
Thank
you
for
the
presentation
there
Dr
Nelson
I
did
want
to
ask
you
I,
think
kind
of
separate
from
your
department,
but
distinct
to
Moorhead
I,
think
you
guys
had
a
some
kind
of
a
breach
or
a
hack
recently
that
it's
affected
your
internet.
Is
that
correct
correct
is
it?
Is
that
still
ongoing?
Are
there
kind
of
any
Lessons
Learned
From
that
or
where
are
we
at
on
that?
So.
R
We
we
quickly
addressed
and
shut
down.
All
systems
are
related
as
of
yesterday
evening,
talking
with
Dr
Morgan,
we've
had
no
exfiltration
of
sensitive
data
so
and
we
were
able
to
get
teaching
and
learning
systems
back
up
and
we're
still
ongoing
with
bringing
our
other
systems
up,
but
in
a
careful
and
cautious
manner
to
make
sure
everything's
ready.
A
Very
good
all
right,
thank
you
all
right.
We,
let's
see
K-State
UK
and
if
CPE
has
anybody
here
as
well,
if
you
guys
want
to
come
on
up
we'll
in
committee,
if
you've
got
any
questions,
this
is
our
last
group
of
presenters.
So
please
let
the
chair
or
one
of
the
staff
members
know
that
you
do
have.
If
you
do
have
questions.
D
I'll
start
off
with
the
chairman.
Thank
you
all
for
allowing
us
to
have
time
today.
I
think
it's
very
important
topic
that
the
universities
are
presenting
today,
as
many
of
them
are
peer
institutions
have
said
this
is
an
important
topic
that
has
to
be
addressed
more
than
just
the
education
piece.
Kentucky
as
you've
heard,
is
not
immune
from
cyber
attacks.
The
Commonwealth,
in
fact,
has
recently
seen
cyber
intrusions
into
private
businesses,
a
major
health
care
hospital
and,
within
the
last
week,
an
institution
of
higher
education.
D
The
real
risk
of
all
this
is
that
confidential
data
is
being
sold
on
the
dark
web.
The
Commonwealth
must
be
proactive.
We
need
to
have
more
cyber
education
funding,
threat,
awareness
and
response
teams.
Assembled
you've
heard
from
our
our
colleagues.
While
the
University
of
Kentucky
has
a
cyber
certificate
program.
We've
taken
a
different
approach.
We
are
focused
on
the
prevention
and
intelligence
piece.
D
Against
that
backdrop,
I'll
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
what
the
University
of
Kentucky
has
undertaken.
First,
the
University
of
Kentucky
is
building
a
cyber
Joint
Task
Force,
a
cyber
security
Joint
Task
Force.
That
is,
focus
on
defending
the
University
from
cyber
attacks,
responding
to
incidents
ensuring
appropriate
management
of
threat,
intelligence.
D
The
intelligence
is
the
most
important
piece
also.
We
are
focused
on
the
forensic
piece
understanding
where
these
attackers
are
also
understanding
what
the
emerging
cyber
security
issues
are.
To
that
end,
the
task
force
will
collaborate
with
law
enforcement,
federal
agencies,
information
sharing
analysis,
centers
and
peer
institutions
across
the
Commonwealth
to
make
sure
that
we
are
sharing
best
practices,
threat,
intelligence
and
coordination
of
these
best
practices
to
increase
our
cyber
security
awareness.
D
D
These
initiatives
are
providing
valuable
experience
to
the
students
and
supporting
the
development
of
future
cyber
security,
Workforce
a
critical
and
growing
sector
as
you've
heard
today.
Third,
while
our
initial
efforts,
Focus
solely
on
protecting
the
University
of
Kentucky
Our
intention,
is
to
share
this
information
with
our
partners,
protecting
the
Commonwealth
at
all
cost
is
important.
D
We
take
these
threats
and
challenge
it
seriously.
Our
approach
is
to
appropriately
assess
these
challenges,
create
strategies
to
mitigate
those
threats
and
use
this
information
appropriately
to
create
these
proactive
strategies
and
learning
opportunities
for
our
students,
as
well
as
the
Commonwealth.
Thank
you,
sir.
T
T
Good
afternoon,
sorry
about
that,
you
all
have
a
copy
of
the
flyer
I'm,
an
assistant
professor
at
Kentucky,
State
University,
along
with
my
colleagues
here,
Dr
acopo
and
our
other
colleagues.
So
just
want
to
talk
about
the
importance
of
cyber
security
in
the
Commonwealth
talk
about
our
current
program.
So
we
have
a
bachelor's
in
computer
science
with
information
security.
T
T
We've
got
collaborations
with
uofl
the
University
of
Louisville,
with
the
cyber
security
Workforce
program,
which
I
mentioned
I'm
a
graduate
of
that
program.
We
also
have
collaboration
with
Bluegrass
Community
Technical
College
BCTC.
T
We
also
have
different
Workforce
ready
Partnerships
as
well
with
the
NSA,
with
our
former
alumni
I'm
part
of
the
Kentucky,
we're
part
of
the
Kentucky
cyber
threat
work
group
we've
got
connections
with
Louisville
Metro
Government.
We've
got
internship
and
research
opportunities
for
our
students
through
our
HBCU
NSF
Grant,
so
our
students
have
participated
in
different
kinds
of
projects,
so
blockchain
agricultural
security
Etc.
T
It's
our
future
plans
kind
of
build
Pathways
along
with
BCTC
into
our
program,
also
faculty
training
with
uofl,
with
the
cyber
security
Workforce
program
student
competitions
collaborations
with
Northern
Kentucky
universities
and
job
placement.
We've
also
got
students
that
are
working
doing
interning
at
the
state
government,
as
well
as
private
organizations,
local
private
organizations.
We
also
have
a
student
with
SpaceX,
so
you
know
there
is
definitely
a
demand
for
cyber
security
Workforce
not
only
on
the
Commonwealth
but
throughout
the
country.
S
So
the
first
thing
to
note
is
that
student
demand
for
cyber
Security
Programs
is
very
strong
both
nationally
and
in
Kentucky.
Part
of
that
reason
is
because
of
the
job
opportunities.
For
example,
the
number
of
information
security
analysts
in
Kentucky's
expected
to
grow
by
31
percent
over
the
next
10
years,
software
developers
by
20
and
computer
and
information
research
scientists
by
18
percent.
S
Our
institutions
are
addressing
the
demand
through
academic
programming.
You've
heard
that
so
far
today
we
have
a
number
of
undergraduate
certificates.
We
also
have
a
few
associate
degrees.
We
have
bachelor's
degrees,
we
have
master's
degrees
and
we
do
have
some
post
bachelor
certificates.
S
S
Cyber
defense,
designation,
meaning
that
programs
have
met
the
standards
for
the
curriculum,
The,
Faculty
expertise,
the
student,
research
and
other
criteria
for
academic
excellence,
and
we
already
have
five
institutions
in
the
state
that
have
achieved
this
designation
for
at
least
one
of
their
programs.
So
we
have
a
really
good,
solid
foundation
of
excellence
in
cyber
security
in
Kentucky
that
we
can
build
on
and
that's
all
I
have
for
you
today.
A
U
That
they've
done
a
great
job,
I'll
just
say
three
quick
things.
One
is
that
we
do
have
a
variety
of
programs,
that's
concentrating
on
prevention
to
intervention
and
that's
important
number
two.
We
do
need
to
build
this
out
more
and
there's
opportunities
for
that
in
Kentucky
and
I
think
we
can
do
that
best
by
collaboration.
No
doubt
number
three
research
and
development
is
also
key
here.
U
We
didn't
talk
a
lot
about
that,
but,
as
someone
who's
also
doing
Health
Care
stuff
in
my
life,
as
well
as
other
items
along
these
lines,
I
mean
we
can't
keep
up
with
the
hackers,
as
that's
what
I
tell
people.
So
we
have
to
get
ahead
of
this
somehow
so
I
think
it's
a
rich
field
for
us
to
be
looking
at
developing
a
holistic
way
of
thinking
about
r
d,
so
other
than
what
they've
offered
they've
done.
U
A
good
job
of
telling
you
what
we're
currently
doing,
I
guess
I
want
to
offer
up
the
idea
that
we
need
to
be
really
concentrating
on
doing
more
in
a
way,
that's
coordinated
and
in
a
way
that
really
gets
Kentucky
truly
to
that
edge.
That
you
know,
as
you've
heard
me
say
way
too
often,
I
want
us
to
have
so.
That's
all
I
have
to
say
Mr
T.
C
Thank
you,
Mr
chairman
I
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
the
University
of
the
Cumberlands,
who
have
also
got
a
great
program
and
welcome
to
the
University
of
Louisville
president
Dr
schatzel,
but
in
Murray
State.
My
grandson
is
going
into
cyber
he's,
transferring
from
a
junior
college
in
Illinois
to
cyber
at
Murray
State.
My
granddaughter
I
just
went
to
EKU
for
her,
so
I'm
glad
to
hear
and
see
all
the
great
programs
at
the
universities.
C
But
what
I
want
to
say
is
this
was
my
bill
that
started
this
firestorm
and
I'm.
Glad
I
did
this
so
we've
heard
from
all
of
the
universities
on
their
great
programs
and
what
they're
doing
and
what
they're
trying
to
do,
because
they've
seen
this
issue
is
important
to
Kentucky
important
to
our
Workforce
and
important
to
the
United
States.
So
they've
taken
it
upon
themselves
to
start
these
programs
and
do
things
so
it
just
shows
the
need
to
centralize
some
of
this.
You
all
talked
about
cooperation
and
collaboration.
C
The
center,
like
Georgia
and
Tampa
Florida,
has
is
to
coordinate
the
collaboration
between
all
of
y'all
and
to
help
with
the
funding
the
grants
and
bring
in
the
money
to
help
with
everything
that
you
do
and
to
expand
it
and
the
other
universities,
and
that
with
your
teaching
and
we're
not
trying
to
pick
and
choose
with
this
we're
only
trying
to
help
and
as
Dr
Jackson
was
pointing
out
that
the
academ,
this
all
got
sidetracked
into
only
Academia,
and
this
is
not,
or
at
least
the
bill
wasn't,
but
the
Academia
part.
C
C
There'll
be
four
parts
in
my
opinion
to
the
center.
That
needs
to
be
done.
I
think
the
next
time
we
meet.
We
should
be
talking
about
the
whole
thing
and
not
just
the
Academia.
This
was
a
fantastic
meeting
and
it
shows
the
need
for
it
and
your
all's
ability
to
cooperate
so
I
have
a
doctor's
appointment.
Thank
you,
chairman.
V
Dr
Thompson
Dr,
Bell,
Dr,
Jennifer
Franks,
you
guys
are
all
three
a
part
of
the
Council
on
post
edu,
post-secondary
education
and
what
is
the
funding
for
those
three
programs
come
from
so
just
help
educate
me
here.
V
U
Yes,
it
comes
under
General
government.
We
have
a
board
that
selects
us
we're
quasi
I
guess
you
can
call
us
that,
to
a
degree
I'm
hired
by
a
board.
Our
funding
comes
from
the
state
through
General
funds,
no
doubt,
but
a
lot
of
our
work
are
also
done
with
soft
dollars
that
we
get
from
foundations
from
the
federal
government
and
from
other
entities.
So
many
of
the
items
that
we
perform
isn't
performed
through
dollars
from
the
general
assembly.
P
Thank
you,
and
this
is
a
general
question
for
anybody.
Does
anybody
doing
any
research
out
there
at
the
universities
that
have
a
skiff
available
to
them
and
if
you
did
have
a
skiff,
would
that
further
the
amount
of
research
and
the
attraction
of
corporations
that
would
make
use
of
that
in
academic?
If
anybody
has
one
available,
doesn't
look
like
it?
Okay,
thank
you.
A
Well,
well
to
all
the
universities
and
presenters
today,
I
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
do
have
a
huge
concern
that
this
is
not
just
an
all
of
government.
This
is
an
all
of
society
and
issue
and
and
requires
a
whole
society
response
and,
unfortunately,
I
think
about
one
tenth
of
one
percent
of
all
Society
really
realizes
even
a
fraction
of
what
goes
on
out
there.
A
But
I
have
a
great
fear
that
one
day,
a
large
swath
of
society
will
wake
up
to
no
power
bank
accounts
with
zero
doctors
who
can't
get
into
their
medical
records.
Take
your
pick
of
things
that
are
sensitive
and
that
in
modern
society
are
online,
and
you
know
the
the
the
idea
that
there
are
state
or
and
or
non-state
actors
who
may
have
interest
in
disrupting
those
types
of
things,
is
tremendous
and
honestly,
you
know
that
kind
of
Gray
Zone.
A
Cyber
warfare
is
where
you
guys
stand
on
front
line,
and
most
people
don't
even
realize
it.
So
we
appreciate
what
you
do.
We
take
the
Partnerships
that
you
do
and
frankly,
I
don't
think
any
one
of
you
do
enough,
because
it
simply
does
not
get
enough
societal
attention
as
of
yet
and
I'm,
fearful
as
to
the
kind
of
negative
things
that
may
have
to
happen
to
to
get
more
of
that
attention.
A
But
hopefully
we
can
do
even
more
in
the
Commonwealth
more
as
you
guys,
partner
across
the
the
communities
and
obviously
Across
the
Nation,
with
some
of
the
other
folks
that
you've
mentioned
as
well,
and
we
appreciate
the
time
and
effort
that
every
one
of
you
put
coming
in
front
of
this
committee
today
and
look
forward
to
ongoing
conversations
and
Dr
Thompson.
As
always,
it's
wonderful
to
see
you
even
if
remotely.
A
At
this
point
in
time,
all
we
have
are
follow-up
information
and
correspondence.
So
please,
as
always,
take
a
look
at
those
and
then
our
next
meeting
will
be
Tuesday
August,
the
2nd
chaired
by
the
esteemed
representative,
Jason
Petry,
who
I
have
no
doubt
will
have
yet
another
riveting
agenda
in
front
of
all
of
us.
See
no
other
business
to
come
from.
The
committee
will
stand
adjourned.
