Have you ever wondered how the United States Government constructs nuclear weapons? How does it protect these design and construction processes from our Nation's enemies? The InfraGard Southern Nevada Members Alliance will answer these questions at its CLOSED Summer meeting on July 21, 2009. Due to the classification level of the information that will be presented, ONLY SECURED INFRAGARD MEMBERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO ATTEND. No guests will be admitted. The meeting will feature an Executive from Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Sandia's primary mission is to ensure the U.S. nuclear arsenal is safe, secure, reliable, and can fully support the Nation's deterrence policy. Sandia designs and integrates more than 6,300 parts of a modern nuclear weapon's 6,500 components. Because of Sandia's involvement in this technology, it must carefully protect its work. The Executive will explain how Sandia protects this information from both physical security and cyber security threats. THIS MEETING WILL BE HELD AT A NEW LOCATION. IT WILL BE AT THE DESERT RESEARCH INSTITUTE (DRI) and not at the Clark County Library. DRI IS LOCATED AT 755 EAST FLAMINGO ROAD, LAS VEGAS. The meeting will be held in the Rogers Auditorium, which is located INSIDE THE ATOMIC TESTING MUSEUM. As you enter the Museum building, the auditorium is to the left. Lunch is being partnered by USDN Network Security (www.usdn.net) and will be served at 11:15 a.m. The meeting will begin at 11:30 a.m. and end by 1:30 p.m. Because of the limited access to the meeting, you are encouraged to arrive a few minutes early to ensure that you are seated on time. If you have your membership card, please bring it. Members without cards will be checked against the InfraGard membership database. New cards will be disributed at the meeting to those who have not received them. Again, only Secured InfraGard members will be allowed entry into this meeting. Individuals may apply for membership by the "Join InfraGard" link on the left side of this webpage. |
