Why attend

The cyber landscape is more complex than ever before. With an increasing emphasis on cybersecurity readiness, IT leaders have been tasked with meeting essential mandates while mitigating an array of emerging threats to their networks with limited resources.

From implementing a strategic whole-of-state approach to cybersecurity, to fulfilling key directives from the U.S. National Cybersecurity Strategy, this track will explore how Tanium is helping public sector organizations improve cyber hygiene, strengthen their operations and security posture, and protect essential citizen data while meeting these challenges.

Hear from leaders across federal, state, and local agencies, as well as K-12 and higher education institutions as they discuss the latest trends and solutions, including:

  • How to overcome IT and security challenges
  • How to optimize cybersecurity readiness
  • The building blocks of Zero Trust and how the endpoint is the most vulnerable frontier to cyber security
  • How to better protect sensitive and constituent data
  • How our customers are using the Tanium platform alongside the tools they already use to solve their most complex IT challenges
  • How to automate tedious processes while reducing both risk and cost
  • How Tanium is building strategic alliances across solution providers that are maximizing public sector IT security investments

Learn how Tanium is converging tools across the IT Operations, Security, and Risk Management space to bring teams together — with a single platform for complete visibility, control, and trust in IT decision-making that allows you to focus on your organization’s mission.
