In today’s interconnected world, the federal government faces an increasingly sophisticated set of cyber threats that threaten national security, economic stability, and public safety. At the same time, the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in government is accelerating, with AI and cyber resilience at the center of the U.S. cyber defense strategy. AI technologies enable the government to detect, prevent, and respond to cyber threats with unparalleled speed and precision. Equally important, cyber security experts and AI experts are increasingly working together. They are developing innovative solutions that continually adapt to new threats. Synergy between these disciplines, driven by federal IT leaders, is crucial to strengthening cyber defenses and preventing attacks.
MeriTalk is pleased to recognize the cybersecurity and AI innovators who are working to keep our nation safe. Join us on October 3rd at a joint ceremony at Planet Word in Washington, DC to celebrate this year’s Cyber Defender Award and AI Honor Award recipients.
