FCW Roundtable Webcast: Protecting Mission Critical Data: Securing Cloud and Cloud Native Environments
Ongoing IT modernization pressures and 2020’s unexpected shift to remote work leave all agencies needing to accelerate cloud adoption. The Cloud First to Cloud Smart initiative was already urging the transition, but delay is no longer optional. With the federal government projected to spend up to $7 billion dollars on cloud technology and services in the current fiscal year, the stakes are high.
Yet obstacles to effective adoption remain. Among the most pressing are time to deployment; the need to ensure strong security and privacy protections for government data; and the shortage of skilled workers to manage it all. Those issues are compounded by the complexities of running multi-cloud environments, an approach that most agencies are pursuing.
During this webcast, attendees will learn from the Department of State and proven industry experts about how to navigate complex multi-cloud security capabilities from Google to AWS, including the ability to continuously scan applications for misconfigurations and threats.
