Public Sector Tech Talk E18: Leveraging Real-Time Cybersecurity Data in the Public Sector with AI

Event Overview

While significant advancements have been made in cybersecurity, attacks are becoming more frequent and dangerous within the public sector, which operates in an environment driven by data. With the massive volume and complexity of government data comes an increased risk of loss, theft, or mismanagement, which threatens the privacy and security of citizen information and can disrupt essential government services. Artificial Intelligence (AI) will be a critical tool to help fight cyberattacks more effectively in the future, demanding new levels of computing and scale. During this Public Sector Tech Talk, NVIDIA joins WWT to provide an overview of current cybersecurity issues, discuss why cybersecurity is a data problem, and show how real-time AI cybersecurity can help meet the challenges of securing modern networks against sophisticated attacks. The session will also provide recommendations on what steps agencies should take, if and when a cybersecurity breach does occur.
