In today’s increasingly interconnected digital era, our nation faces unprecedented cyber risks. Despite the apparent simplicity of our world, technology continues to grow more intricate, amplifying the threats we encounter. Both external and internal cyber threats are escalating, compounded by reductions in IT budgets redirected to support global conflicts. Our digital supply chains, reliant on IT infrastructure, are prime targets for hackers seeking to exploit obsolete or unidentified technology assets within organizations.

The prevalence of open-source software adds another layer of complexity. Shockingly, nearly 70 percent of organizations lack comprehensive policies for managing open-source usage, identifying associated security vulnerabilities, and adhering to licensing requirements. Apart from security concerns, there are financial risks associated with overspending and overuse, diverting resources from mission-focused innovation projects. Even with the implementation of Zero Trust initiatives, understanding your digital inventory and continuous risk monitoring remain crucial. It’s evident that comprehensive intelligence on assets and licensing expenditure is paramount for mitigating risk, optimizing operations, and supporting mission objectives. 

This session will delve into thought leadership and best practices for leveraging intelligent data to fortify your defenses, manage risks, control costs, and ensure readiness aligned with your mission. Adaptability and flexibility are key in addressing evolving threats in the digital age.

Tune into this webinar to hear Federal IT experts explore strategies to leverage intelligent data to fortify your defenses, manage risks, control costs, and ensure readiness aligned with your mission.
