Federal AI in the Fast Lane

Join Netskope as we bring together federal cybersecurity leaders to discuss how agencies are leveraging AI today, and how a comprehensive security strategy allows for the evolution toward a smarter, more resilient, and future-proof mission model.

The significant operational gains realized from deploying AI solutions to optimize mission delivery and accelerate productivity are unparalleled. But on June 2, 2026, the White House made it official: with the Promoting Advanced Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Security Executive Order, federal agencies now face a dual mandate — accelerate AI adoption and harden systems in parallel. Speed and security are no longer in tension. They're inseparable. Across civilian and defense agencies alike, AI tools are already being utilized—often without official authorization or oversight from agency IT leadership. The new EO raises the stakes, with near-term directives (many within 30–60 days) requiring agencies to act on AI-enabled cyber defense, shadow AI visibility, and Zero Trust enforcement now.

To maintain a strong security posture and meet these new requirements, it is critical to achieve complete visibility into where and how personnel are interacting with AI, while streamlining and centralizing all AI governance and controls.

This interactive event is essential for federal networking and cybersecurity practitioners, CISOs and mission leaders looking to safely harness the power of AI while maintaining strict adherence to the new AI Executive Order, federal security directives, Zero Trust mandates, and compliance frameworks across their agency's technology landscape.
