Join us May 11 for a look inside the Coast Guard’s counterterrorism operations. Get a primer on how the oldest DHS component – founded in 1790 – has adapted to meet the changing threat environment.

This was an event previously scheduled in February, when record cold temperatures hampering power delivery forced NCITE to cancel. We are excited to present this event now with our guest presenters, Dr. Dane Egli, U.S. Coast Guard Counterterrorism and Defense Operations senior policy advisor, and USCG Lt. Commander Matt Brinkley in Omaha. We will premiere this event this through our website.
