Reducing Risk in the Cloud for Government

This event qualifies for 1 CPEs

Security is one of the highest priorities for today’s government agencies as cyber-security threats rise and become increasingly sophisticated. While many CIOs and agency department heads feel increasing concern and pressure around security breaches and privacy, FedRAMP and key compliance mandates are driving greater standards within the industry.

In this panel discussion, government and industry thought leaders discuss how a trusted cloud platform can help government agencies meet today’s demands—from certification to privacy and security mandates—and also evolve to address future needs.

Learning Objectives: Whether you log in from the office or the road, you will gain valuable, useable insights from this session, including the answers to such key questions as:

Discussion of the attributes of FedRAMP certified cloud providers.
How do agencies structure brokered cloud services to meet their security requirements and their service level agreements?
How do agencies feel about brokered cloud services in terms of meeting not only their security requirements but also the other elements in the service level agreements?
