The cybersecurity landscape for U.S. federal and defense sectors is evolving rapidly amid technological advancements and increasingly sophisticated threats. These organizations face unprecedented challenges in safeguarding sensitive data and critical infrastructure from adversaries who exploit evolving vulnerabilities. As federal networks expand into cloud computing, IoT, and interconnected systems, the attack surface broadens, necessitating robust defenses. The Defense Department, with its extensive networks supporting military operations and housing classified information, faces particularly daunting tasks in securing these assets. Resilient cybersecurity strategies are crucial to defending against data breaches, espionage, and disruptions to national security. How can we ensure our defenses keep pace with the evolving threat landscape?

Join us at this year’s cybersecurity conference, hosted by GovExec’s Nextgov/FCW, Defense One, and Washington Technology, where leaders from federal and defense sectors will convene to tackle pressing cybersecurity challenges. Mainstage discussions will focus on proactive measures, regulatory updates, and emerging cybersecurity standards essential for operational readiness. Artificial intelligence and machine learning will take center stage, complemented by initiatives aimed at strengthening the cyber workforce through effective recruitment, training, and retention strategies. Dive deeper into these critical topics during our breakout sessions exploring their impact on operational elements such as endpoint detection and response, data protection, privacy, and quantum computing preparedness.
