Improving Department of Defense Incident Response and Public Safety with Next Generation 9-1-1

Effective incident response at Department of Defense (DoD) bases calls for seamless conversations between stakeholders on the base as well as with external civilian law enforcement and emergency services personnel. What should a modern dispatch solution look like -- one that brings together diverse channels and media, simplifies the dispatch environment while also addressing technical integration challenges to ensure next generation safety and response?

This webcast explores how the DoD can improve incident response and interagency collaboration with a smart network strategy that saves lives and millions of dollars.

Change is inevitable with every new Administration, and so is the uncertainty that comes with it. In order to achieve mission success, federal agencies must be prepared to respond with strategies that will help make them more efficient. The organizations and the individuals that remain viable in an atmosphere of uncertainty are the ones that take the necessary steps to ensure that they are prepared to effectively navigate in an environment where the issues and challenges they face are not always clear-cut. What are the keys to maintaining a productive workforce in this ever-changing federal climate?

Join us on June 21, as we explore successful approaches for ensuring that your agency remains mission-focused and goal-oriented in order to deliver positive organizational results.

The era of big data is here. And with it, agencies have the opportunity to make faster, better decisions to improve mission performance.

But there's a problem. The volume of data is overwhelming and traditional databases and methodologies aren't up to the task to manage, analyze and share more disparate data sets quickly and securely while accelerating agencies' mission. The good news, however, is that every agency and organization is facing the same challenge, and some have already solved it.

At this year's Marklogic Data Integration Summit, you'll hear from government and industry peers on how they've tackled challenges with agility, data integration,and data culture, and how they are now extracting the insights needed from their data to improve services and increase efficiency, You'll learn that there is a proven path to success - by integrating your data silos, you can change the way you integrate, store, manage, and search large volumes of disparate data types.

To provide quality public service, governments must have information at their fingertips in order to instantly answer citizen inquiries and requests. They also must minimize manual, repetitive tasks – like finding, filing and indexing records – so they can focus more time on addressing the needs of the public.

Laserfiche enterprise content management (ECM) solutions help state and local governments provide information to the public faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.

By attending, you will learn how to:

-Ensure your records are secure and can meet industry standards using built-in tools for records management.

-Identify and implement automated workflow solutions that both IT staff and change-resistant employees can agree upon.

-Collaborate interdepartmentally to improve public service delivery.

More data was created in the last two years than in the history of humankind, and data keeps growing exponentially. Organizations and industries aren’t always able to analyze and utilize it effectively, but in the new era of cognitive computing, the opportunity exists to ingest massive volumes of data, extract insights and transform government. Commonly referred to as artificial intelligence, cognitive computing – or augmented intelligence – has the potential to reveal insights so that government can do what it does best: focus on mission outcomes.

The advancements in open data, analytic capabilities, cognitive computing and cloud infrastructure options are enabling government to reimagine how to interact with and improve the lives of warfighters, veterans, employees and citizens. In the cognitive era, government agencies can enhance processes; realize actionable insights; uncover the previously unknown from structured and unstructured data; and yield better decision-making to address the many challenges our nation faces.

Agencies are complex and need to focus on day-to-day activities in order to work towards their missions and goals. Yet, the data stored at agencies may provide solutions on how to effectively minimize risks, lower costs and provide insights.

How long does it take you to retrieve relevant data in your agency? Do you know where to look to find and compile it? Or do you struggle with a data management strategy and how communicate this effectively to your teams?

You've got questions, we have answers. Hundreds of federal managers were recently surveyed on their top takeaways for their agencies' data management solutions.

While the Internet of Things (IoT) promises greater efficiency, the proliferation of so many connected devices widens the threat vector for those seeking to steal, alter, or cause harm to the IoT ecosystem. As IoT moves full speed ahead with its rapid growth and complexity, agencies face significant pressure to enhance data at the edge without compromising mission performance.

Devices operating at their network’s “edge” demand particular attention, as their mobility and independence from core infrastructures challenge traditional security measures. Acknowledging the IoT is critical to executing your agency’s mission, are you confident that these devices are secure?

Inflexible infrastructure and management capabilities make it difficult to transform IT infrastructure into a cloud-service-model. These IT limitations keep organizations from building a scale-out IaaS cloud environment that supports the range of application workloads organizations need to grow.

In order to transform, agencies need to consolidate compute, storage, networking, and management capabilities into a single solution. Turning to human computer interaction as an option provides advanced capabilities yet opens the door to a number of security concerns. New research results reveal DoD and other federal agencies struggle to make these changes while managing costs, legacy systems and more.

Along with compliance requirements, agency Chief Information Security Officers oversee the security of the government’s networks and critical infrastructure from domestic and foreign attacks. The monitoring and fortification of these systems is critical to protecting the public’s health, safety and economic prosperity. Potential oversights can put the nation at risk to insider threats and those seeking to gain access to sensitive data, intelligence or possibly launch malicious programs into our systems and networks. This session will take a deep-dive into the immediate and long-term hurdles facing CISOs across all levels of government missions from providing security for information systems that support operations and assets to the expansion of responsibility for whole agency cyber accountability.

In order to protect themselves, federal, state and local governments and their partners need a clearer picture of the rapidly-evolving threat landscape that has drastically changed with new rules of engagement. Nation-state actors, cyber criminals and hackers have become less predictable. The attack surface continues to grow with the rise in connectivity, data loads and access to industrial control systems. To identify, assess, respond and mitigate threats such as ransomware, extortion, espionage and zero-day attacks, as well as predict and prevent the “unknown threat,” agencies need to build intelligence-led security operations. CIOs and CISOs are drowning in their own security stack while analysts are exhausted by “alert fatigue.” Operationalizing security enables security professionals to rapidly collect, analyze and disseminate threat intelligence across the enterprise, assess risk based on an adversary’s motivation and capability and align resources to the most impactful threats.

In this webcast, our panel of experts will discuss the benefits of using a secure FedRAMP compliant cloud and how to fulfill the government’s paperless and “cloud-first” mandate securely and with confidence – while giving your employees and citizens the digital government they want.
