How to Optimize Federal IT Operations

As federal agencies navigate administrative changes, hybrid work models, and evolving security challenges, IT modernization has become a critical priority.

 

This webinar will provide insights into observability and AI operations, proactive maintenance strategies, and the importance of federal-specific certifications like Common Criteria and FIPS 140-2, the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s “Security Requirements for Cryptographic Modules,” and their application to modernization efforts.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Review best practices for adopting hybrid work models while maintaining operational continuity and network performance
  • Outline the steps to streamlining administrative processes with innovative automation tools to improve workforce productivity
  • Delineate how to support software acquisition pathways with agile, secure, and user-centric development practices
