Zero Trust, Real Impact: Defense Leaders on Building Resilient Systems



In today’s evolving threat landscape, a strong security posture is no longer optional—it’s foundational to mission success. For government agencies, resilience isn’t just about technology; it’s about leadership, trust, and the ability to adapt in the face of uncertainty.

 

This episode of GovExec TV explores why security posture is emerging as a strategic priority across federal agencies. From executive accountability to supply chain integrity, our speakers will examine how cyber resilience is shaping leadership decisions, procurement strategies, and long-term operational readiness.

 

Through real-world insights and forward-looking perspectives, the conversation will highlight:

  • How federal leaders are reframing cybersecurity as a mission enabler, not just a compliance checkbox
  • The evolving role of industry-government partnerships in building resilient infrastructures
  • Why data resilience in hybrid and multi-cloud environments is central to continuity and trust
  • How frameworks like NIST, MITRE ATTACK, and Zero Trust are guiding leadership decisions
  • Ways organizations can demonstrate value through proactive security assessments and transparency
