Kenneth Schmutz, a special agent with the FBI Cyber Task Force, Omaha Division, will be presenting “Current Cyber Threats” at 1 p.m. Oct. 18 in the Nebraska Union.
The FBI is the lead federal agency for investigating cyber attacks by criminals, overseas adversaries, and terrorists. Cyber intrusions are becoming more commonplace, more dangerous, and more sophisticated.
