Public cloud adoption can serve as the center point for digital transformation efforts. As organizations grapple with increasing challenges from adversaries and a call for increased transformation efforts, to include an improved cybersecurity posture, the drivers to consider a heavy investment in the adoption of cloud become increasingly compelling.

An organization’s cyber posture hinges, in large part, on an effective approach to data protection. The exponential increase in both cyber attacks and data sources presents a real challenge for the public sector. In this session, Jim Cosby from NetApp explains how the evolution of storage technology could level the playing field by enabling a new generation of cyber professionals to automate, integrate, and deploy data more effectively.

Cybersecurity professionals are living through an unprecedented time in the industry. With ever-maturing threat capabilities, blurred lines between state-sponsored actors and independent cyber criminals and maybe most importantly, a shortage of qualified cybersecurity talent, cyber warriors around the world are being tested every day. Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are beginning to be applied towards these cyber challenges. Aaron Nelthropp from Leidos talks with us about how his team is continuing to research and develop new ways trusted AI can help keep our customers’ most sensitive networks safe.
