Federal CIO’s cannot simply rely on traditional boundary protection anymore and recruiting top-talent for cyber security remains a core challenge.

Continuous Monitoring / Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) got off to a fast start, but in order for it to flourish, it must be a priority for the agency from a budget and resource perspective

84% of organizations breached
