Key national leaders have been invited to emphasize the importance of Security and provide expert knowledge at PROTECT 2011: Defense Secretary Voltaire T. Gazmin, National Security Adviser Cesar P. Garcia Jr. and Secretary of Transportation and Communications (DTC) Jose P. de Jesus.

The Department of Transportation and Communications (DTC) is the partner agency of PROTECT 2011, now on its sixth year.

With its role as builder and promoter of critical infrastructures, the DTC strengthens the government-private sector preparedness for disaster through networking and sustaining awareness for updated means for disaster preparedness.

There is a session on strengthening community and business resiliency which includes the role of new media and technology, securing critical infrastructures, building a “smart city” and developing public and private sector partnership for low-cost effective emergency management and business continuity.

Another important session of the conference will be the introduction to the delegates of the latest technologies for network video by AXIS Communications of Singapore, the future of surveillance by Panasonic, building an e-city by Huawei Technologies and protecting business-critical processes by Kaspersky.
