Federal Cyber Resilience Breakfast: Operating in a Persistent Threat Era 2026

Federal agencies face a pivotal moment. As adversaries intensify cyber operations and technologies like artificial intelligence accelerate both innovation and threat capabilities, the question is no longer if attacks will occur, but how quickly government systems can absorb, isolate, and recover from them. This executive breakfast brings together senior leaders from across the federal cyber community to examine the evolving threat landscape, identity-driven attacks, cloud modernization risks, and the role emerging technologies like AI will play in both cyber defense and adversary tradecraft. The discussion will focus on ensuring mission continuity, limiting disruption, and making federal systems less attractive targets in an era of persistent nation-state activity.
