As the new fiscal year gets underway, Tech Tonic will bring together government and industry technology leaders on October 8 at Morton’s The Steakhouse in Washington, D.C., for an evening of networking and meaningful conversation.

The evening will begin with an exclusive VIP reception for invited government leaders, followed by Tech Tonic’s signature networking reception.

This event provides an opportunity for the federal technology community to reconnect with colleagues, build new relationships, strengthen existing partnerships, and engage with the leaders shaping the priorities and future of federal technology.

AI is rapidly changing the cybersecurity landscape — but how are agencies turning AI and automation into practical tools for stronger, more adaptive security operations? Join experts from the Agriculture Department, Army Corps of Engineers, Idaho National Laboratory, Splunk and Optiv + Clearshark for a closer look at how cybersecurity leaders are applying AI today, simplifying SOC operations, measuring results and preparing their teams for what’s next.

Learning objectives:

• Explore how AI is reshaping cybersecurity strategies.
• Identify strategies for simplifying and automating security operations.
• Examine how agencies are measuring AI’s impact and preparing their workforce.

During this webinar, attendees will learn:

• How the Splunk ELA delivers enterprise wide visibility and analytics across afloat and ashore C4I environments without the cost and complexity of fragmented buys
• To tackle real world use cases across CANES, ADNS, and cross enclave environments that improve mission readiness and accelerate decision making
• Ways to operate effectively in DDIL environments through continuous monitoring
• How Splunk supports Zero Trust, Cyber Defense Architecture, and RMF continuous monitoring obligations to enable real time situational awareness and defensive cyber operations
• How to reduce tool sprawl and eliminate duplicative analytics investments through consolidated ELA licensing across program offices and baselines

As federal agencies move beyond Zero Trust planning and into implementation, the focus has shifted from strategy to execution. Leaders across government are advancing practical capabilities that strengthen cybersecurity, improve resilience, and support secure mission delivery.

GovExec's Zero Trust Summit: Transforming Strategy into Capability brings together government technology, cybersecurity, and policy leaders to explore how agencies are operationalizing Zero Trust through modern identity, data, network, and AI-driven security strategies. Through interactive discussions and real-world examples, attendees will gain practical insights into overcoming implementation challenges, accelerating adoption, and building resilient, mission-ready environments.

The US federal landscape is being shaped by tighter fiscal conditions and sharper prioritization, with the Administration’s FY2026 budget proposing deep reductions to non-defense discretionary spend while protecting investments tied to national security, homeland security, veterans, law enforcement, and infrastructure. Agencies must modernize under constraint: retire legacy systems, strengthen cyber resilience, and deploy responsible AI where it improves mission delivery and productivity—accelerating the shift from Government 2.0 silos to Government 3.0 connected, interoperable delivery.

Government Innovation Showcase US Federal helps executives translate these shifting priorities into practical delivery. Across cybersecurity, IT modernization, data and AI, and workforce enablement, the program spotlights what is working across agencies and how leaders can build governance and capability without compromising security, privacy, or accountability. Join peers to align, share approaches, and leave with insights you can apply immediately in the Government 3.0 era.

Federal health agencies are entering a period where modernization is defined by integration, not implementation. Cloud environments, AI‑enabled operations, and stronger cyber defenses are becoming core to mission delivery, and the Preview event will explore the shared pressures and priorities shaping that shift. This session sets the tone for the 2027 Health IT Summit by focusing on broad, cross‑agency themes rather than program‑specific details, keeping the door open for a wide range of speakers and perspectives.

Leaders from across the federal health community will discuss how agencies are preparing for federated data environments, expanding the use of generative and agent‑based AI, strengthening supply‑chain‑aware cybersecurity, and improving digital engagement tools that support preventive care. These themes mirror the Summit’s focus on integrating cloud, AI, and cyber capabilities to deliver measurable improvements in patient outcomes.

Key Discussion Areas

• Modernization pressures shaping 2027 priorities
• Federated data environments and secure cloud integration
• AI in clinical and operational workflows
• Cyber resilience across interconnected systems and supply chains
• Digital engagement and the shift toward preventive, data‑driven care
• Where agencies need partnership in 2027

The federal health IT landscape has shifted from basic technology rollouts to active operational integration. Driven by the "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) agenda, health IT, artificial intelligence (AI), and resilient cybersecurity are essential technologies supporting preventive wellness, cost reduction, and regulatory reform. However, as agencies consolidate shared services and retire vulnerable legacy systems, securing interconnected environments against third-party supply chain risks is vital for modernizing public health.

To support this massive data consolidation, cloud modernization remains a critical objective. Standard cloud infrastructure cannot provide the compute power or security architecture required for predictive modeling, population-scale genomics, and advanced AI. Federal policy now prioritizes federated data environments with secure, zero-trust networks that let agencies and researchers run complex AI models where the data lives. By eliminating the need to move massive medical records, these cloud environments break down agency silos, protect against unauthorized data exfiltration, and ensure continuous privacy compliance.

Within this infrastructure, generative and agentic AI models are transforming clinical operations by automating documentation and diagnostics. Yet as reliance on AI expands, health systems face aggressive ransomware and cyberattacks targeting operational availability. Federal directives now drive automated, AI-driven defense to protect critical health infrastructure without overtaxing a short-staffed cyber workforce. As a result, health agencies now require real-time threat hunting across all networks and vendor supply chains.

Finally, these secure frameworks converge to boost digital patient engagement, transforming consumer technology into a primary front line against chronic disease. Remote biometric monitors and advanced patient portals empower citizens to manage their health at home under new proactive payment models. Because every connected medical and Internet of Things (IoT) device expands the attack surface, embedding end-to-end encryption and device authentication ensures patient trust while shifting healthcare from reactive treatment to secure, data-driven wellness.

Ultimately, progress will be measured by a system's ability to seamlessly integrate federated cloud capabilities, ethical AI adoption, and resilient cyber defenses to deliver measurable improvements in patient outcomes.

Join us at the 2027 Health IT Summit, January 25–26, as we chart the course toward a healthier, more secure, and connected future.

With assistance from the U.S. Army Cyber Center of Excellence, Augusta University, and industry, this three-day conference is designed to open the lines of communication between the military and commercial sector and provide a space where government, academia, and industry professionals can discuss issues and share solutions surrounding cyber electromagnetic activities and unified land operations.

With a focus on enhanced warfighting outcomes, TechNet Augusta 2027 will explore how to accelerate the delivery of innovative and interoperable systems, which are crucial for decisive action in joint operational environments. We will deepen the military and private sector partnerships required to deliver advanced C2 and counter-C2 capabilities to our warfighters with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
