The White House’s America’s AI Action Plan gives the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the intelligence community (IC) a timely nudge. For program leaders trying to turn pilots into production, that policy tailwind sets the stage for a shift from reactive cyber operations to AI-enabled cyber intelligence that finds weak signals early and prioritizes what to fix first. That shift – and what it looks like on the ground – was the focus of a recent conversation with two General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) leaders supporting DHS and the IC. […]
