Events We Are Sponsoring

Join Optiv and CrowdStrike for a practical discussion with former state IT leaders Deborah Blyth (former CISO, State of Colorado, CrowdStrike) and Jeff Woak (former IT Leader, State of Idaho, Optiv). The session focuses on building an AI security and governance program that ties organizational policy to technical control, from discovering shadow AI to managing AI risk as regulations evolve.
What we'll cover:
- The new risks introduced by autonomous AI agents accessing government and education systems
- Identifying sanctioned and unsanctioned AI use across an agency or institution
- Protecting sensitive constituent, student and employee data used by AI applications and agents
- Detecting and responding to AI-specific runtime threats targeting public sector environments
- Establishing an ongoing operating model for AI governance that keeps pace with evolving state, federal and sector-specific regulations
