The Malware Technical Exchange Meeting (MTEM) aims to connect practitioners and researchers through the United States Government, FFRDCs, UARCs, and industry to solve critical, classified malware-related problems in the national security space. MTEM often attracts keynote speakers from major USG agencies, including the NSA, and allows technical staff to connect to senior leadership throughout the US Government. MTEM also allows technical practitioners to share ideas with each other to support their respective customers’ missions. MTEM is unique in the aspect that it allows malware practitioners to discuss topics at a classified level, unlike public cybersecurity conferences.
