Artificial intelligence is creating new opportunities for agencies to strengthen mission delivery, improve decision-making, and respond more effectively to complex challenges. This panel will explore how federal organizations are applying AI to support operational priorities, enhance public services, and drive more informed outcomes across mission areas. Speakers will discuss practical use cases, key implementation considerations, and the broader opportunities and risks associated with AI adoption in government. Attendees will gain insights into how agencies are aligning AI initiatives with mission needs while building the foundation for long-term success.
 

As government agencies move artificial intelligence from experimentation to enterprise-wide implementation, cybersecurity can no longer be an afterthought—it must be the foundation. In this fireside chat, Google Public Sector security leaders will discuss how agencies are reversing the "defender’s dilemma" by operationalizing an Agentic Defense. The conversation will explore the critical transition from manual, reactive security operations to intelligent, AI-driven workflows. Attendees will learn how unifying threat intelligence with generative AI allows agencies to anticipate adversary behavior and ensure continuous mission readiness in a contested digital environment.

As agencies modernize legacy systems and update their technology environments, artificial intelligence is emerging as a powerful tool for improving efficiency, streamlining operations, and accelerating transformation. This panel will examine how AI is being integrated into IT modernization efforts, from automation and analytics to infrastructure management and service delivery. Speakers will share lessons learned, common challenges, and strategies for ensuring AI adoption supports security, scalability, and mission alignment. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how AI can help shape more agile, resilient, and future-ready federal IT environments.
 

Content in Context: Why your dark, unstructured, disconnected data is impeding your AI initiatives, and how incorporating a governed knowledge activation layer – without ripping-and-replacing existing systems – can create the ideal environment for AI success.

Data quality, accessibility, and governance are critical to successful AI adoption. This discussion will explore how organizations are preparing their data environments for AI, addressing fragmentation across systems, and building the operational foundations needed to support long-term AI success.

As cyber threats grow more complex, agencies are exploring how artificial intelligence can do more than support detection and response. This panel will examine how AI is reshaping cybersecurity operations through emerging approaches such as large language model applications and more autonomous, agentic security operations. Speakers will discuss how these capabilities can improve threat analysis, accelerate investigations, strengthen situational awareness, and support faster, more adaptive decision-making. The conversation will also address the governance, transparency, and risk considerations that come with integrating more advanced AI into cyber workflows.
