Today’s technologies offer government agencies numerous ways to cut operating costs, improve service delivery, strengthen national security, and enhance mission performance. Government’s increased reliance on technology has expanded the attack potential. This video-based briefing will touch on the building blocks of a solid security infrastructure and how agencies are becoming more resilient and effective in stemming cyber threats.

The digital world is exploding, and government is feeling the impact. The digital-first mindset underscores the work of agencies actively converting and automating internal and citizen-facing services. Even business infrastructure and machinery, not traditionally considered information technology, are becoming smarter, network-enabled, and part of an ever-expanding Internet of Things. The “digitization of everything” is just as rel...

Whether to open government for greater transparency, secure Federal buildings, networks and IoT, or improve healthcare delivery, public sector technologists have staggering workloads. Regardless of the mission, modernizing entries operations are a first step in enabling the connected government. This briefing will touch on critical aspects of technology modernization that can affect engagement, secure networks, the smart city, and healthcare I...

Continuity of Operations (COOP) is the initiative that ensures that Federal Government departments and agencies are able to continue operation of their essential functions under a broad range of circumstances including all-hazard emergencies as well as natural, man-made, and technological threats and national security emergencies. Today’s threat environment makes COOP planning even more critical. This webinar will explore how government...

According to the Office of Management and Budget, three-quarters of IT budgets are going toward the maintenance of legacy IT investments. As a means to adopt more efficient, secure, and modern IT systems and infrastructure, government is turning to an “as-a-service” model. This technique provides a self-sustaining mechanism for Federal agencies to regularly refresh their IT systems based on up-to-date technologies and best practice...

Government agencies have a combination of policy, technology and workforce requirements to address when mapping the framework for mobile security within their agencies. Security options are available at both the hardware and software levels and include encryption, rooted trust, kernel protection, and containerization. While crafting their security set-ups, technology staff also has to remember that users – real, live people – have...

Whether created maliciously or unwittingly, insider threats can result in grave damage to national security interests. Traditional methods of detection rely on monitoring structured data, such as system access logs. However, critical insights that can help thwart an attack lay hidden in massive volumes of unstructured data. Unstructured data represents typically 80% of available information and typically remains unobserved and underutilized. C...

Federal agencies have been encouraged to “cloudify” what they can to save resources and drive innovative new ways of serving the citizen. Most public and private sector organizations are pursuing the twin sirens of lower operating costs and greater agility by focusing on migrating applications and data to the cloud. This discussion will focus on strategies that government agencies are employing to capitalize on their culture, techn...

Gartner Research estimates that a new architectural model will evolve in which security technology and services will be made available at the device and network layer, characterizing the emergence of security solutions made within endpoints, gateways and IoT platforms. Capabilities will include software vulnerability assessment, application control, network security, access control, and threat intelligence. This webinar will explore some of th...

The federal government is the single largest energy consumer in the country and the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) is the leading contributor. With a total annual energy budget of approximately $20 billion, DOD ranks as one of the world’s largest energy consumers and accounts for nearly three quarters of energy used by the federal government. This discussion will take an in-depth look at best practices and new technologies for federal...
