The animating concept at the heart of the Cybersecurity Executive Order issued in May is Zero Trust – to structure cybersecurity around the premise that every person, every device, whether inside or outside its’ systems, is not to be trusted and must be verified before being granted access. Setting this as core to modernization is reflected in the awards just made by the Technology Modernization Fund. Three of the six public awards...

Advances in security technology have diverted cybercriminals from targeting individuals to a more lucrative approach; holding an organization’s entire operations hostage until a ransom is paid. The data that underlies government mission operations is the lifeblood and when it stops flowing, operations come to a halt. With government agencies ranked as the 4th most likely sector to be hit by ransomware, it’s imperative that business...

In the iconic “Star Trek” – whether the TV series of the 1960s or the two-movie adaptations over the past 40 (!) years – Dr. McCoy uses a handheld scanner to examine, diagnose, and treat his patients. What “Star Trek” doesn’t show is the vast amount of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) that culminated in the creation of the scanner’s capabilities. Though this level of compute...

Far too often, agencies, organizations, and consulting firms are running data and AI projects without taking the right steps to ensure their success. Agile and iterative approaches have become adopted best practices for application development projects, but why don’t we have something similar when it comes to advanced analytics, big data, and AI projects? Without using best-practices approaches that standardize steps for data preparation...

In diplomatic circles, the U.S. and the U.K. are known to have a closely aligned relationship. That extends to the military, as well - both are pursuing digital transformation strategies to facilitate adoption of emerging, innovative technologies, such as art...
