2020 has accelerated the digital transformation of every industry: manufacturers want connected products, telecommunications companies are broadening their network with 5G to bring computation closer to people. Even in industries like agriculture and sustainability, technology can be used to understand the changes in the environment.

The public sector is no different, and the Cloud offers opportunities for the federal workforce to modernize, gain insights from their massive datasets, and support their hybrid workforce. The cloud is not a far-off, theoretical destination; it’s where critical services are routinely delivered, yet it’s essential that these services stay resilient in the face of many unexpected and unpredictable events.

Join Jeanette Manfra, Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Google Cloud, and Jonathan Nguyen-Duy at Fortinet on how organizations in the public sector can become more resilient and high-performing in 2022 and beyond.

Adversaries don’t discriminate when it comes to their targets and unfortunately, no one is immune. Organizations big and small in every sector around the globe face the threat of constant attack where the stakes are high. It is not a matter of if, but when you may be attacked. What separates the good from the bad and the ugly, is how prepared you are. This session will provide proactive strategies to help protect, defend, and respond to when the adversaries comes for you.

Hybrid work, cloud adoption, and automation are driving major changes to how organizations need to look at connectivity and security. Like-for-like replacement of network and security equipment at the next refresh cycle is not likely to position organizations for success in the future. Instead, the IT architecture for the future demands new models for connecting users to applications with the right visibility, policy, and user experience. How the architecture is managed and operated will also fundamentally shift.

In this session we’ll explore the major drivers and discuss where we see the architecture moving in the future to deliver the right productivity experience for users and IT. How quickly you adapt may determine whether your organization survives or thrives.

We are in the big data era. Amazon, Facebook, and Google own the data every consumer company needs to reach the right customers. Retailers and small brands are hugely disadvantaged. Individuals do not own their personal data. Governments are getting involved with new and onerous regulations. Lean back advertising is giving way to online engagement. Fewer employees are coming into the office or classroom. How do business leaders manage in this crazy and fast changing world?

As digital transformation continues, the number and type of devices connecting to the industrial network – smart sensors, valves, and gauges – expands the attack surface making industrial environments low-hanging fruit for an attack. Cloud adoption has also increased to improve data analytics and support the growing need for remote access. As headlines highlight, attackers have industrial organizations in their sites. OT environments can be difficult to defend due to the mix of modern and legacy equipment. This panel of OT experts will discuss the threats, challenges, and strategies being used to secure industrial environments including cloud connectivity, 5G and industrial IoT devices.
