Network Modernization Summit

In a world where information and data are moving faster than ever before, the ability to stay ahead of near-peer threats is crucial to mission success. Secure, effective, and dependable networks are the only way to provide streamlined communication between decision makers and troops on the tactical edge, allow for advanced mobility for warfighters, and ensure intelligence organizations have effective, secure, and dependable tools. Time is of the essence. With initiatives like JADC2, the Defense Department is looking to solve cross-branch communication issues and enhance multi-domain operations. Hear from leaders across the Department of Defense on what they are doing to modernize networks and increase security to ward off threats from the ever-evolving cyber battlefield.

As agencies look to modernize their network infrastructure and systems through processes such as TIC 3.0, how can they best adapt to new technology? What stands in the way of successful modernization? Legislation such as the Modernizing Government Technology Act and the recent $1 billion to the Technology Modernization Fund have given agencies a degree of flexibility to fund their modernization plans. How are they using these funds? Join leaders from across the federal government to hear how they are working to enact policies that create lasting change.

As new technologies are developed, agencies must stay one step ahead in their strategies for protecting sensitive data, networks, and critical infrastructure. In this session, we’ll sit down with senior leaders from across the federal government to discuss how they are using new technology, while maintaining security to bridge the gap between the current state of their networks and their strategies for the future.
