In a recent MeriTalk webinar, experts warned that supply chain attacks are increasing in volume and sophistication, as nation-state actors weaponize artificial intelligence (AI) to move faster across the software supply chain. FSIs need to rethink how they apply zero trust and data security to keep pace, they advised. […]
For federal agencies and industry partners, NVIDIA’s GTC DC conference felt less like a standard tech gathering and more like a strategic planning session for the next era of artificial intelligence (AI). Sessions touched every part of the federal AI landscape: supercomputing, infrastructure, mission delivery, and policy, providing a clear picture of where government capabilities are headed. […]

Automation is accelerating how the Defense Department’s (DOD) – rebranded as the War Department by the Trump administration – builds, secures, and operates cloud environments, senior Leidos officials said during a recent webinar, underscoring how automation is reducing approval bottlenecks, strengthening security operations, and preparing defense networks for machine-speed threats. […]
The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) is building an artificial intelligence (AI)-ready force the way a teaching hospital trains clinicians: rigorous classroom learning, side-by-side practice on world-class technology, and real problems. […]
Across mission networks and insider risk programs, practitioners are shifting from reactive firefighting to proactive, risk-aware operations, elevating signal over noise so leaders can act faster and with more confidence. […]
As federal agencies modernize IT systems and prepare for artificial intelligence (AI) compute demands, Supermicro is working with NVIDIA to expand efforts to help the government rapidly deploy purpose-built “AI factory” infrastructure. […]
At Splunk .conf25, leaders highlighted a significant shift toward artificial intelligence (AI) agent-assisted operations, emphasizing how machine data and observability are becoming critical control planes for faster, safer decision-making across public sector SecOps, ITOps, and broader mission objectives. […]
Public sector and higher education leaders are actively developing innovative data analytics and cybersecurity workforce models to combat escalating fraud and cyber threats. A key theme emerging from the recent Splunk conf.25 event in Boston was the critical role of observability practices – drawing insights from both public and private sectors – in ensuring the continuous availability and resilience of essential government and educational services. […]
The second era of artificial intelligence (AI) is upon us, in which we move from chatbots that intelligently answer our questions to agents that accomplish tasks autonomously, or nearly so, Cisco President and Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel noted at the recent Splunk .conf25 in Boston. […]
