INFORMATION SECURITY AND INNOVATION FORUM

February 23rd, 2022 9:30am EST   ON24

Overview Speakers Agenda

The considerable rise of remote work, the rapid expansion of the Internet of
Things and the accelerating digitization of society in recent years have all
contributed to a significant increase in opportunities for cyber attacks and
security vulnerabilities in federal agencies and commercial organizations. Since
the major 2020 Solarwinds breach, public and private entities have shifted their
focus on leveraging advanced technology to bolster information security, protect
sensitive data and fortify their networks. 

Innovative technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning and zero
trust are increasingly being implemented across the federal sector to address
growing cybersecurity threats and build a next-generation information security
precedent. 

Despite the escalating frequency of cyber attacks, government agencies are still
underprepared to address critical information security challenges and must work
to expedite their efforts in this newly identified mission focus area.

GovCon Wire’s Information Security and Innovation Forum will gather notable
federal and industry leaders to discuss the goals, priorities and strategies
surrounding information security in the digital age, as well as how
public-private partnerships can help advance these initiatives.

Robert Costello, chief information officer for the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency, will serve as the forum’s keynote speaker to
share how he works to develop, deploy and support advanced technology solutions
to efficiently mitigate cybercrime and strengthen the government’s technology
culture.
