CHARLOTTE – Congressman Robert Pittenger (NC-09) is traveling to Vienna, Austria this weekend to host the fourth Parliamentary Intelligence-Security Forum, with a primary focus on terrorism financing and cybersecurity issues. More than 125 Members of Parliament and other high ranking officials from 30 nations will participate.

“We will work on major issues dealing with terrorism financing, cybersecurity, and Intelligence collaboration. These tools are important for us to be able to defeat ISIS.

“I’m very encouraged that some important institutions from North Carolina will be joining me for this event. Bank of America is sending one of their key security officers to provide his expertise to this meeting, as well as SAS, a key software company out of Cary. They have very capable software that is used around the world and we want other countries to be fully aware of what the private sector has to offer to help us accomplish our objectives.

“We will work together and we will use every possible means to make sure we collaborate and we defeat ISIS.”

Congressman Pittenger is Chairman of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism andUnconventional Warfare.
