Navigating M-26-14: Modernizing Federal Observability and Security

Tune in Monday, October 26 at 2:00 PM EDT!

Federal IT environments are growing more complex by the day, and so is the mission to secure them. With OMB Memorandum M-26-14 raising the bar on logging, data retention, and threat detection, agencies are under pressure to modernize, not just to check the compliance box, but to stay ahead of what's coming. Attendees will walk away with a clear-eyed breakdown of what the memo requires for logging and observability, along with practical strategies for managing high-volume telemetry at scale without losing sight of what's actionable and compliant.

The session will also explore how open standards like OpenTelemetry can help agencies build a unified view across complex, hybrid infrastructure, and how that visibility translates into speed. Attendees will leave with proven strategies for reducing mean time to detection (MTTD) and mean time to resolution (MTTR), spotting problems faster and fixing them faster, even in complex environments.
