The internet has evolved from a best-effort IP network for file sharing, email and browsing to a network at the center of a digital revolution in the way we live, work and play. Every sector — from industry and commerce to the federal government — now relies on IP networks for connectivity and everyone expects real-time responsiveness, secure connectivity and 100% reliability. Protecting data and interactions are more important tha...

This historic transition, complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic, requires significant cultural change and modern workforce models. In this webinar, you will be immersed in best practices from experts skilled at fostering a culture of innovation and peak performance. SAIC and Bluescape leaders will walk you t...

If you're interested in modernizing your software stack to containerize applications and orchestrate them with Kubernetes out to the tactical edge, you are not alone. In this exclusive RGS webinar for the AFCEA community, open source government technology experts will help you understand what you need and how to choose the right Kubernetes management platform for your agency. This webinar will cover: Docker and Kubernetes concepts and architec...

Government contractors are increasingly a prime target for cyber-attacks, ranging from phishing and social engineering to malware and ransomware. Cloud computing, remote working and traffic encryption expand the attack surface while making threats harder to detect. How do we improve our network security in the face of these challenges? Network detection and response solutions can help detect potential breaches and prevent attackers from disrup...

Securing critical infrastructure requires a combination of resources, technology and people that understand the unique nature of control systems and their supporting technology. People are the most critical element of the equation — without the right team that understands how to resource a control system/operational technology program, and without the right people to operate and maintain both cybersecurity capabilities and compliance pro...

5G heralds a generational step forward for cellular networks, bringing faster connection speeds and unlocking new use cases like AR/VR and IoT. The emergence of 5G also marks a significant industry disruption in terms of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN). No longer will cellular networks be confined to traditional terrestrial deployments on rooftops and towers. With NTN and 5G, network assets can be deployed on satellites as well as unmanned airc...

Lt. Gen. Dennis Crall, USMC, the Director for Command, Control, Communications, and Computers/Cyber and Chief Information Office Joint Staff J6, has said the JADC2 vision for a connected force across all domains—land, sea, air, space and cyber—is not possible without enterprise cloud computing. The Defense Department’s future battlefield network needs the cloud to increase command and control capabilities, to provide global a...

Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) is a $7.2 billion technology integrator that provides highly secure engineering and IT modernization solutions to government, defense, space, civilian and intelligence clients. With Kubernetes becoming pervasive across U.S. military and government agencies, SAIC needed a better way to deploy Kubernetes and support add-ons for clients that include the U.S. Department of Defense and intellige...

Federal agencies are not immune to security attacks, even if their controls and processes are as tight as Fort Knox. Some of the world’s most technologically advanced enterprises, from Microsoft to SolarWinds to Okta, have faced security incidents and were exposed to risk. Many of these successful cyber attacks did not start with hackers fighting their way through firewalls and intrusion prevention systems or executing zero-day exploits....

Today’s warfighters and the network architects that design the communications networks they rely on are faced with adversaries that are increasingly sophisticated. It’s critical that sensitive and classified information is secured while in transit and at rest. Public key cryptography plays an essential role in securing this data, whether it is CUI data used throughout the federal government, or Secret and Top Secret data secured th...
