The 2016 <strong>Government</strong> <strong>Security</strong> <strong>News</strong> Awards Program, featuring<br />

many new categories in Cybersecurity, Physical <strong>Security</strong>, <strong>Government</strong><br />

Agency Innovations and Mobile Technologies will open for entries on<br />

<strong>August</strong> 24 and will close for entries on November 15.<br />

In good news for Winners and Finalists, GSN will be reinstating its<br />

annual Homeland <strong>Security</strong> Awards Dinner in Washington, DC in<br />

the first week of December, in a venue to be announced. Longtime<br />

participants in the GSN awards programs will recall that previous<br />

GSN Awards Dinners have featured top government, military leaders<br />

and respected television commentators such as 4-Star General<br />

Barry McCaffrey (Ret); Fran Townsend, Homeland <strong>Security</strong> Advisor to<br />

George W. Bush, James Kallstrom, Assistant Director of the FBI and<br />

Admiral Thad Allen (Ret), Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard<br />

who came out of retirement twice to serve his county, first in<br />

Hurricane Katrina and later in the BP Oil Spill.<br />

The cost of an entry for vendors is $300 per entry, but there is no<br />

charge for government agencies or departments. All Winners<br />

and Finalists receive Awards Emblems, and all Winners receive a<br />

handsome, gold-trimmed plaque describing their winning entries.<br />

All Winners and Finalists will also be invited to participate in the 2016<br />

<strong>Digital</strong> Yearbook of Awards Winners.<br />
