AI Governance for the Public Sector: Balancing Innovation, Security and Trust

AI is already reshaping state and local government but adoption is moving faster than governance, security and oversight can keep up.

Many agencies don’t have full visibility into what tools are being used, how data is being handled or what guardrails are in place, creating real risk.

Join us online Thursday, Aug. 20 from 2:30-3:15 p.m. ET/11:30 a.m.-12:15 p.m. PT to hear from public-sector technology and cybersecurity leaders about how to secure and govern AI in today’s evolving landscape.

You'll learn:

  • Where AI adoption is creating new risks across state and local government environments, and why many organizations lack full visibility.
  • How to identify and manage shadow AI, and what steps can help improve oversight of tools and usage across your organization.
  • What it takes to establish practical governance frameworks, and how to balance innovation with security and compliance.
