Today’s technologies offer government agencies numerous ways to cut operating costs, improve service delivery, strengthen national security, and enhance mission performance. Government’s increased reliance on technology has expanded the attack potential.

By every measure, attacks on government systems are growing in sophistication and numbers. At the same time, IT systems are growing more complex — and more difficult to defend.

How are agencies defending against the growing cyber threats? This briefing will feature government and industry technology leaders discussing emerging threats and techniques in place to combat them.

We’ll Explore:

Explore emerging cyber security threats disrupting government.
Discuss the roles of data and analytics in securing government information.
Consider methods for securing information in the hybrid cloud environment.
Detail how the growth in the Internet of Things has expanded the cyberattack surface.
Examine the government and contractor workforce capability to address the full scope of the cyber threat.
Delineate methods in use for a secure software supply chain to ensure the integrity of software.
