Panel: Developing the Future Cyber Workforce

The tech industry faces a critical need to fill cybersecurity jobs nationwide, and women remain underrepresented in the cybersecurity workforce. Federal agencies have outlined strategies and goals to recruit a more diverse tech workforce to fulfill key initiatives like those around zero trust and open-source software security. This panel will outline how they are preparing for these workforce challenges and the role women will play in the cyber workforce of the future.

Flywheel Awards Presentation

We'll present the Flywheel Awards recognizing leaders and their work in federal government. 

The flywheel — a critical component in a machine to increase its momentum — is also a critical symbol representing our publication’s goal to keep federal IT decision-makers informed on technology's impact on government. This momentum is what fuels the constant need for transformers to innovate in federal technology and communicate those strategies across the industry. 

Categories include: Rising Star, Workforce Champion, Digital Transformer, Woman Tech Leader of the Year and Lifetime Achievement.
