Modern Day Marines are becoming increasingly connected to technology and networks. Therefore, enhancing and protecting the data and systems that these Marines utilize is critically important for operational success and national security. Emerging technologies and capabilities, such as AI and quantum information science, have the potential to greatly enhance existing capabilities, as well as, drive innovation to develop new cyber capabilities. So, how are the U.S. Marines utilizing these emerging technologies to push the envelope and develop the cyber capabilities of tomorrow.
Join GovExec TV as we engage with leaders and experts from HP and the U.S. Marine Corps at Modern Day Marine 2024 about the nature of warfare is shifting due to emerging technologies and how they are enhancing and developing the cyber capabilities needed to drive future mission success.
