    As the September 2024 deadline looms for agencies to implement a zero-trust architecture, many are struggling as they operate at a very large scale, have blends of legacy and emerging technology, and face funding and workforce challenges. This panel will explore how agencies are navigating the course and how identity management and data governance can be a critical focus. Featuring Randy Resnick, Director, Zero Trust Portfolio Management Office.

  • Using Data and AI to Improve Cybersecurity

    Theresa Kinney NASA SEWP Senior Deputy Director/COR

    Governments around the world have seen a dramatic increase in cyber incidents as they have become one of the most attractive targets, partly because they have so much valuable data and partly because they are often underfunded and have older systems. This panel will look at some of the solutions that AI and better data management may offer, including automatic remediation, snapshots of storage metadata and multi-factor authentication. Featuring Daniel Holtzman, Chief Information Officer (CIO); Cyber Assurance Officer; Authorizing Official (AO) & Senior Component Official for Privacy (SCOP); DOD Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO); Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD).

  • Zero Trust & Election Security

    Kayle Giroud Strategy & Development Associate Director, Global Cyber Alliance
    Michael Makstman Interim City Chief Information Officer & Executive Director, City & County of San Francisco

    Physical threats to poll workers, cyber attacks on electronic poll books, and voter databases are just a few of the challenges that election officials at all levels of government are facing this election year. Hear how state and local governments are responding and what resources are available from CISA and other organizations.

  • Emergency Management as part of Cyber Incident Response Planning
    Mary Lou Prevost Group Vice President, State & Local Government and Education, Splunk
    Kim Bowman Assistant Deputy Director, Emergency Services for the Department of Emergency Management, City and County of San Francisco
    Kamroonbanu Mohideenbasha Technology Risk and Resilience Manager -- City and County of San Francisco
    Jeroen Schipper CISO -- Municipality of The Hague, Netherlands

    Increasingly, cyber attacks target not just computer systems, but also go after larger infrastructure, such as water systems and pipelines. Working with emergency management teams can help prioritize the appropriate response, along with communication with executive leadership, the federal government, and the public. Federal agencies such as CISA, FEMA and NIST have prepared detailed guides for states, counties, and cities to measure preparedness before the attack and the response afterwards. This panel will discuss the different options and what has been learned from having the two teams work together.

  • Using a Whole of City/State Approach to Cybersecurity
    Jose Padin Chief Transformation Officer Public Sector, Zscaler
    Greg McCarthy CISO - City of Boston
    Payam Hojjat CA Statewide Cybersecurity Risk Governance Chief
    Kelly Moan Chief Information Security Office of the City of New York

    Spurred by funding from the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant program, this approach brings everyone together on the public team at different levels to develop a long-term plan, select cybersecurity standards and defense protocols, and share data. Managed by a commission, a roundtable or a cyber command center, the one stop approach provides more visibility and information, pooled funding for purchasing tools and a common approach-such as mandatory incident reporting and no ransom payments permitted. The panel will discuss some of the different approaches cities and states have taken to apply this approach in the real world and what lessons and takeaways can be shared.
