Accelerating Army Modernization
From the ever expanding threat landscape to the prevalence of remote work, there is a critical need to transform the U.S Army’s network and communication systems. A modern environment provides the updated networking, cybersecurity, and work capabilities required for mission success at a global level. During this digital event on September 21, WWT will sit down with U.S. Army leaders at TechNet Augusta to discuss accelerating digital transformation, such as software-defined networks and a Zero Trust architecture, and expanding the service’s ability to support more secure and robust technology modernization at an enterprise scale.

BG Paul Craft and Rick Piña Panel Discussion
Maintaining mission readiness across all domains starts with proper training. Emerging tech --
like AI -- will play an important role in areas like cybersecurity and info-sharing across networks.
But concepts like Zero Trust won’t be leveraged to their full potential without effective training,
partnerships, and communication. Brig. Gen. Paul Craft and Rick Peña discuss best practices in some of those areas for enabling the Army’s modernization journey.
MG Barrett and Gus Mendiola Panel Discussion
Maj. Gen. Maria Barrett and Gus Mendiola continue the conversation on unified network
integration -- including barriers to innovation, IT infrastructure needs, the role of culture plays in
