Modernizing & Securing Government IT

This event qualifies for YES

The Administration has proposed a budgetary increase of $3.1 billion for modernization of the core infrastructure that runs most Federal agencies. The goal is to achieve these three primary goals: Address cybersecurity loopholes inherent in older systems; contain costly maintenance requirements and the inefficiency of legacy technology; and develop a more modern and reliable architecture that leverages cloud infrastructure and services.

These efforts reflect a fundamental change in mindset to continuously refreshing government’s IT infrastructure rather than waiting until it breaks.

Topics Discussed Will Include:

Steps needed to prepare your government network to address advanced capabilities.
The role of cloud computing and mobility in modernizing government.
How you can mitigate security breaches with a hardened network infrastructure.
Lessons learned and examples from agencies tapping the benefits of modernization.
