Join us for a pivotal event addressing the pressing issue of Cloud Ecosystem security in the wake of recent alarming cyber breaches on government IT infrastructure. Perpetrated by state actors, these breaches have exposed critical cyber resilience deficiencies, particularly in certification processes and managing known vulnerabilities. This gathering provides a vital platform for US Government leadership and Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) to collaboratively develop a unified response strategy.

Driven by a collaborative initiative of independent experts, this event aims to align efforts and forge a resilient path forward. In response to rising cybersecurity needs, these experts serve as catalysts, ensuring that the nation's critical digital infrastructure remains secure against relentless cyber threats. Don't miss the opportunity to contribute to the development of a unified response and secure the future of our digital landscape.
