We are excited to announce that our featured speaker will be Julian Zottl is the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Nightwing, the newly divested company formally Raytheon Cyber Intelligence and Services.

Julian has been taking things apart for as long as he can remember, and 18 years ago he was offered a job to do just that. Over the last 18 years, that job has evolved from Reverse Engineering, to Intelligence work, and now in large scale Computer Network Defense (CND). He has presented at multiple conferences including DEFCON and BSides, and is heavily involved in STEM work in the DC area. He holds an Electrical Engineering undergrad and Masters from Catholic University in DC and will be pursuing his PhD in 2025.

We will create name badges for everyone before the event. Please RSVP for the Meetup here and register with Loudoun Economic Development so we know your full name and organization:

Launched in March, 2021, this Meetup provides opportunities for cybersecurity professional development and networking for anybody in the greater Loudoun County, VA area. We’re open to cyber practitioners, consultants, trainers, policymakers, software vendors, students, etc. This Meetup is intended as an informal forum for the people who seek knowledge of the current state, status, challenges, successes, and emerging topics in governmental and general cybersecurity technologies.

As of June, 2021, we have transitioned to in-person meetings. Meetings will feature a speaker on a topic of interest for about 20-30 minutes, encouraging questions and discussion, and then allow for networking to include announcements by jobseekers/employers and startups who want to give their elevator pitch on a new cyber company, idea, or technology. Join this conversation as we discuss the most important issues of the day, as they concern the intersections of technology, government, business, and people.

If you require a reasonable accommodation for any type of disability in order to participate in Loudoun County Cybersecurity Professionals, please contact Katie Fleger at 703-737-8612 (TTY 711). Three business days advance notice is requested.
