WASHINGTON, April 26 -- On Wednesday, April 28th FedScoop will host "Ensuring a Safe Computing Environment: A CyberSecurity Leadership Summit" at the Newseum in downtown Washington, DC.
In recent years the U.S. government has embraced a leadership role in combating the growing threat of cyber attacks, collaborating with the IT industry to pioneer a future of secure information sharing and data storage.
To promote this cooperative effort, FedScoop's half-day CyberSecurity event will bring together C-level executives from the public and private sector to discuss strategies to address growing security challenges in the enterprise. Scheduled panelists include top executives from the ARMY, Department of Interior, NIST, Microsoft, Intel and HP.
The summit is the latest in FedScoop's event series based on what U.S. Federal CIO Vivek Kundra termed the 'five pillars' of his administration. In addition to security, Kundra outlined lowering the cost of government, engaging citizens, transparency and innovation as fundamental priorities of his office.
