Events We Are Sponsoring
Red Hat and Carahsoft will host an Executive Briefing at DoDIIS 2026 on Tuesday, August 11th, where Red Hat Chief Architect and Security Strategist, Michael Epley, will outline a technical blueprint for establishing Automated Shields within military networks.
U.S. adversaries are using generative AI to rapidly identify vulnerabilities, evade detection and automate sophisticated attacks, rendering traditional perimeter defenses and manual patching ineffective, especially in contested or DIL environments. The Department of War and Intelligence Community are uniquely positioned to counter these machine-speed threats through advanced cyber capabilities.
At this executive briefing, Red Hat will discuss the critical elements of this blueprint:
- AI-secured sovereign supply chains with task-tuned models automating continuous Test, Evaluation, Validation, and Verification (TEVV)
- Enforced Zero Trust utilizing anchored and cryptographically secure agents and workload identities (SPIFFE/SPIRE)
- Securely backport hardened Open Source software supply chain patches directly into air-gapped enclaves
- Leveraging ground-truth system telemetry, executing closed-loop Defensive Cyberspace Operations (DCO) via event-driven automation
- Coordinating secure cross-domain threat intelligence sharing
Armed with this blueprint, our Government defenders can re-establish decision dominance and preserve mission integrity against autonomous adversaries.
Organizations across the public sector are investing in AI, but turning experimentation into measurable outcomes requires the right strategy, platform and governance model.
Join Red Hat, ConRes and Carahsoft for an in-depth discussion on how Government agencies and Educational institutions are building, scaling and governing AI initiatives while maintaining security, consistency and operational control.
During this webinar, Red Hat experts will explore how organizations are leveraging Red Hat OpenShift AI to streamline AI development, accelerate deployment and support AI workloads across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Build a scalable foundation for enterprise AI initiatives
- Accelerate AI development and deployment with Red Hat OpenShift AI
- Establish governance and operational consistency across AI workloads
- Support collaboration between data scientists, developers and IT teams
- Deliver measurable outcomes while maintaining security and compliance
Whether you are evaluating AI technologies or expanding existing initiatives across Government or Education, this session will provide practical insights to help your organization move forward with confidence.
Register today to learn how Red Hat OpenShift AI is helping public sector organizations build, scale and govern AI initiatives.
As government networks become more complex, agencies need cybersecurity strategies that can keep pace. Today, they must defend against growing cyber threats while also managing modernization efforts, compliance requirements, and limited resources.
Join us online Wednesday, Aug. 12, from 2–2:50 p.m. ET/11–11:50 a.m. PT, to learn how agencies are building resilient cybersecurity programs that can adapt to the evolving threat landscape. Experts will discuss how agencies are strengthening defenses, improving visibility, and managing cyber risk at scale.
You'll learn:
- How agencies are adapting to emerging cyber threats.
- Ways to strengthen security operations with limited resources.
- Lessons learned from public-sector cybersecurity leaders.
Your scanner backlog grows faster than your team can triage it. A 500-finding report doesn't tell you which 12 findings actually change your risk posture. The rest is noise — packages that never run, paths that aren't reachable, components owned by someone else upstream.
The answer isn't faster patching. It's a smaller surface to begin with, plus the visibility to prove what you ship and enforce what you promise.
In this session, we'll walk through how Red Hat Hardened Images and Anchore Enterprise work together to break the vulnerability treadmill — from SBOM generation and continuous vulnerability matching in CI/CD, to policy enforcement against NIST 800-53, NIST 800-190, and FedRAMP at the gate, to audit-ready SBOM storage at promotion time.
You'll leave knowing:
- Why minimizing the image is the highest-leverage first step, and what Red Hat Hardened Images actually removes from the default attack surface
- How to run Anchore's continuous SBOM-grounded analysis across the build and registry promotion pipeline
- How policy enforcement at the gate keeps non-hardened, non-compliant images out of production
- What compliance artifact capture looks like when an auditor asks for proof
Built for security engineers, platform engineers, and DevSecOps practitioners in regulated environments — and for the compliance leaders who have to answer for what ships.
FORGE. Three days with the people who decide what gets built, who builds it, and who buys it.
LEAD. Walk away with the coordinates, the allies, and the momentum to drive real change. Starting the week you get home.
AI mandates are out. Speed-first directives are colliding with legacy compliance systems.
The rules for government software delivery changed faster in the last 18 months than in the previous decade.
If you’re waiting for the dust to settle, you’re already behind. The people moving through it are comparing notes, adjusting their approach, and shipping.
Prodacity is where that happens.
Three days in Nashville with government decision-makers, practitioners, acquisition officers, and industry partners working the same terrain. Every session is built around what works in real production environments, honest about what went wrong and specific about what worked. That includes what AI-native tools are making possible right now, and what it takes to lead when the pace keeps accelerating.
The path forward is Uncharted. The people who are leading the way are the ones in this room.
