| Description: |
Law enforcement and public safety professionals
are constantly challenged in responding to crises.
Over the past two years the COVID pandemic has
created opportunities for criminal organizations
to exploit new vulnerabilities. At the same time,
our law enforcement public safety agencies have
gained new capabilities to work remotely. These
experiences are accelerating a mobile workforce,
which is enabling law enforcement and public
safety to access information securely and reliably
in new ways.
Meanwhile, law enforcement and public safety
agencies manage a significant amount of data
stored on-premises and in the cloud that flows
from state, local, and federal law enforcement
networks data that must be always authenticated
and accessible and meet security policy compliance
regulations. To that end, agencies are investing
in new security solutions and frameworks to secure
infrastructure and data from increasingly
sophisticated cyberattacks and to address today¿s
modern digital transformation.
In this 14th annual LEAPS Technology Forum, AFCEA
Bethesda will provided an opportunity for
government and industry to share information about
lessons learned and current challenges. Panel
discussions and roundtables provide a forum for
engaging and interactive dialog. Government
participants will learn from their colleagues and
industry partners. Industry participants will
discover opportunities where they can introduce
innovations to their government clients. The LEAPS
Technology Forum will look at how federal, state
and local agencies are working with industry to
implement effective solutions with an emphasis on:
Cybersecurity and Zero Trust- Securing remote
workers and hybrid cloud environments, protecting
data and users from ransomware threats, supply
chain risks, credential theft
Use of Biometrics-Emerging trends, integration
with
mobile devices, multi-factor authentication,
surveillance
Law Enforcement and Public Safety Use of
Technology- Leveraging digital technology and
innovation, data analytic tools, artificial
intelligence, geospatial capabilities, and other
emerging technology |
