Mr. Chuck Rosenberg
United States Attorney - Eastern District of Virginia
Chuck Rosenberg was appointed by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales in
March 2006 to serve as the United States Attorney for the Eastern
District of Virginia. He was subsequently nominated to that position by
President George Bush and confirmed by the United States Senate,
unanimously, on June 13, 2006.
As the chief federal law enforcement officer for the District, which
includes offices in Alexandria, Newport News, Norfolk and Richmond, Mr.
Rosenberg supervises the prosecution of all federal crimes, and the
litigation of all civil matters in which the federal government has an
interest.
Mr. Rosenberg has spent most of his professional career in public
service. From June 2005 until March 2006, he served as the United
States Attorney for the Southern District of Texas. Prior to that, he
served in several senior posts at the Department of Justice where his
work focused on counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and national
security matters, including as: Chief of Staff to Deputy Attorney
General James B. Comey, Counselor to Attorney General John Ashcroft;
and, before that, as Counsel to FBI Director Robert S. Mueller, III.
Before joining the FBI, Mr. Rosenberg was an Assistant United States
Attorney in the Eastern District of Virginia, in Norfolk and,
subsequently, in Alexandria. There he prosecuted financial fraud
crimes, violent crimes, and espionage cases. During the last two years
of his tenure as a federal prosecutor in Alexandria, Mr. Rosenberg
supervised that office's Major Crimes Unit - the unit that prosecuted
numerous prominent spy cases. While in private practice with the law
firm of Hunton & Williams, Mr. Rosenberg served as an NBC legal
analyst, appearing frequently on television.
He is a graduate of Tufts University (B.A.), Harvard University (M.P.P) and the University of Virginia (J.D.).
Guest Speaker:
Mr. Douglas E. Winter
Of Counsel, Bryan Cave LLP, Washington, D.C.
Doug Winter is a trial and appellate lawyer who specializes in complex civil cases, practicing in federal and state courts throughout the country. He is a founding member of Bryan Cave’s Electronic Discovery Unit.
The Legal 500 recently identified Mr. Winter as a “key expert” in aviation and aerospace products liability and mass tort litigation. He has represented a variety of private clients in cases with sophisticated procedural and technology issues, including the first products liability suit involving an accident in outer space; the U.S. Air Force’s “friendly fire” shoot-down of United Nations helicopters in Iraq; the explosion of a Delta II launch vehicle at Cape Canaveral; and the 2005 crash of a Kyrgyzstani commercial airliner near Kabul, Afghanistan, in which six Americans perished.
Mr. Winter was lead counsel in one of the longest civil jury trials in American history: the 19-month trial of liability for the crash of Northwest Airlines Flight 255 at Detroit, Michigan, in which his team secured a complete victory for their client. He has also argued and prevailed in significant cases involving the government contractor defense, the sophisticated user defense, and the state secrets defense.
Mr. Winter developed and teaches Bryan Cave’s legal writing and trial training programs. He has also written 11 published books, including the Book of the Month Club’s “Best Suspense Novel of the Year,” Run.
Mr. Winter began his legal career as law clerk to Judge (later FBI Director and CIA Director) William H. Webster. He is a graduate of the University of Illinois (B.S., M.S.), Harvard Law School (J.D.), and the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General School.
Guest Speaker:
Mr. Jeffrey Ritter
CEO, Waters Edge Consulting
Jeffrey Ritter has a different view on how things work. His career is devoted to figuring out how—as this generation of interdependent, always-on global computing arrives—we will develop and maintain trust in the information assets of society. Across a career of academic research, diplomatic leadership, legal services and standards development, Jeffrey has gained a coherent understanding of the calculus of trust, taking account of the complex interactions between systems, rules, economics and subjective human judgment.
He has held substantive roles with the UN Economic Commission for Europe and the American Bar Association in advancing Internet law reform, and is actively engaged in the work of the Information Systems Security Association and the Internet Security Alliance.
Through Waters Edge Consulting, Jeffrey challenges how we think of, and measure the performance of, governance, compliance and process management within any enterprise, and how to re-think using information security controls for broader business functions. As a speaker, workshop leader and facilitator, he is consistently viewed as “outstanding”, “worth the price of the conference” and “provocative”.
