Military cyber leaders repeatedly say zero trust is critical, essential and integral to the Defense Department's Joint All-Domain Command-and-Control (JADC2) concept. A zero trust approach to cybersecurity helps organizations improve data security, manage users on the network and facilitate data interoperability, all key components of JADC2. This panel explores how zero trust aids secure communication and data sharing to prepare the joint force for future fights.

Zero trust requires all users to be authenticated, authorized and continuously validated for security posture before accessing applications and data. As organizations make progress in their zero trust journeys, leaders are focusing on the next challenge: software application security. These leaders dive into the strategy, testing and evaluation, advances in analytics and more that are bolstering security features within applications to prevent vulnerabilities against evolving threats.

The Defense Department has dozens of software factories playing pivotal roles in implementing DevSecOps culture across the enterprise and in moving more services to the cloud. This culture will be key to unlocking fast development timelines to put tech and data in the hands of the warfighter.
Interview |
Last year, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) released a “Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights,” which requires agencies to responsibly develop and implement automated systems, guided by five core protections. Federal leaders discuss how they are tackling the challenges around AI to meet mission needs in health care.
Interview |
Good cybersecurity strategies rely on sound data management. Federal agencies can't secure their data if they don't know where it is, how it relates to other data and how important it is to the mission. Hear from federal and industry data leaders about how to use data-mapping and data governance to get ready for new security approaches, such as zero trust.
Interview |
Ransomware attacks against federal IT systems surged to unprecedented levels at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and show no sign of abating, with ransomware losses surpassing $1 billion in the second half of 2021. Federal agencies handling mission-sensitive medical, financial, demographic and homeland security-focused data within legacy IT systems are especially vulnerable to ransomware attacks. Hear from federal cyber leaders at the DOD and CyberArk about the best tips, tricks and strategies for resisting ransomware and protecting federal data.
Interview |
President Joe Biden’s fiscal year 2024 budget proposed an additional $200 million to support the Technology Modernization Fund, a federal technology program aimed to modernize digital services and improve customer experience by identifying opportunities to leverage technology across federal agencies. Leaders behind the program discuss the key investments and strategies that are improving the digital customer experience for the federal workforce and public alike. This includes developing new enterprise systems and policies, digital services using human-centered design, and creating portals that ensure easy and seamless access to data.
Interview |
Federal agencies investing in cloud are seeing efficient and modernized tech developments that improve the user experience. These developments include digital services and initiatives grounded in user-centered design and data management. Key to these tools is a solid hybrid cloud architecture to support more portable workloads, automation and speed for software development and research teams while also keeping security top of mind.
Interview |
As the Defense Department ramps up AI development within its new Chief Digital and AI Office (CDAO), defense AI leaders aim to limit biases, maintain ethical standards and develop algorithms responsibly. These leaders discuss the key principles to eradicate bias in defense data sets and data processes while maintaining warfighter trust and assurance to get ready for AI.
Interview |
Even when organizations check all their security boxes and prioritize cybersecurity training, multi-factor authentication and data backups, breaches still happen. As federal agencies increasingly adopt hybrid cloud solutions that merge software-defined network access with on-prem IT infrastructure, cyber risks unique to this approach threaten to undo the strongest cyber defenses.

As government tackles the effects of climate change, the Department of Energy has made climate resilience and adaptation a key priority. The Argonne National Laboratory and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory are two facilities working to offer climate modeling that enables more data-driven decisions. Through an applied research model, the labs are mapping decarbonization pathways and risk mitigation, with a focus on climate justice and critical infrastructure. Data leaders discuss how they’re unlocking critical data-sharing efforts, spurred by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
