In the realm of federal cybersecurity, Zero Trust principles are essential for resilience. This panel discussion delves into the intricacies of integrating ZT principles into established architectures, fostering a culture of trustworthiness and resilience at the agency level. Insights will be shared on navigating implementation processes such as FedRAMP compliance, Software as a Service (SaaS) adoption, and other complexities inherent in the t...

Agencies increasingly rely on Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms such as Salesforce for mission-critical functions, which offers them numerous benefits including flexibility, reducing upfront IT resource costs and delegating upgrades and patches to the provider. Using Salesforce does not remove the agencies’ responsibility for cybersecurity, however, and SaaS applications face their own risks, including misconfigurations, poor access...

Ever since the issuance of Executive Order 14028, issued in May 2021 to improve cybersecurity across the entire government by implementing a zero trust architecture, federal agencies have been hard at work to meet the requirement. Then, in October 2023 – less than 18 months later – a new executive order, 14110, was released on the “Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence.” These are...
