Missions are evolving, employee expectations are changing, and emerging technologies bring an opportunity to work smarter, faster, and bolder than ever before. Join us on April 10 at the Newseum to get the inside track on how next-generation technologies are improving the mission of government -- driving efficiency, powering performance, and delivering co...

Cyber sabotage, ransomware, and denial of service attacks are on the rise, while AI, IoT, and cloud are changing the tech landscape. How do we find clarity in this ever-growing complexity? Complex challenges call for bold solutions. Join the best and brightest cyber minds at the 2017 Symantec Government Symposium on December 5 where we’ll tackle these critical issues together. Program to cover: IT MODERNIZATIONand the cloud generation AD...

Feds are on the clock to modernize their IT systems. The Modernizing Government Technology Act proposes an annual $250 million centralized revolving capital fund to upgrade the Federal government’s outdated IT infrastructure. With data centers commanding the majority of Uncle Sam’s $90 billion IT spend, change agents across government are exploring new paths to bring those aging data centers into the 21st century. With 10 out of 24...

We’ve seen all of the cyber headlines this year – new policies emerging, old policies evolving, the cyber workforce is multiplying, and rapidly growing connected devices are complicating governance. While the Federal government is focused on security, new adversaries and attack vectors still emerge hourly. What are the early grades on the new Administration’s response to the growing cyber threat? How can collaborative tactics...

Cyber Security Operations Centers (CSOCs) are at the core of agencies’ response to cyber threats. CSOCs perform critical functions spanning the incident management lifecycle – operating 24 hours a day, 365 days per year. While the efficacy continues to increase, CSOCs are unable to keep pace with the expansion and evolution of sophisticated cyber-attacks. Additionally, senior executives across both the public and private sectors of...

Today’s cloud generation wants it all – flexibility, connectivity, agility, and security. As Federal agencies embrace cloud as the key to a dynamic and modern IT enterprise, they struggle to meet all of these demands, on top of ensuring FedRAMP and FISMA compliance. Join us July 12th as we discuss where cloud implementations deliver results, best practices for cloud security and migration, and how agencies can accelerate cloud prog...

Visibility. Transparency. Agility. Join us at GovProtect17 on June 21 for a one-day, collaborative discussion on how agencies can gain actionable insight into the increasingly complex security risks facing a modern government. We’ll dialogue on the critical need for transparency in strengthening agencies’ cybersecurity hygiene and posture. We’ll take a deep dive into vulnerability management and assessments for everything fro...

The explosion of connectivity and multiplying data sets have opened millions of entry and exit points for data – consequently identifying a breach is about as easy as looking for a needle in a haystack. Hence, advanced analytics and artificial intelligence now stand shoulder to shoulder with our cyber defenders on the thin digital line. So, how are agencies leveraging big data analytics to harden systems without sacrificing performance,...

Law enforcement agencies across government are leveraging IoT, sensor, and other custom data analysis to drive enhanced investigative operations. Big data analysis and collaboration tools are critical to today’s investigative agencies and program offices – improving incident situational awareness while enhancing targeted investigative processes that can be easily shared with a broad team. Join us on Tuesday, March 7th at the Newseu...
