The new cybersecurity recruitment expansion comes after the loss of thousands of federal tech experts under the Trump administration’s workforce reductions.

When CMMC preparation is approached as a quick project instead of an overarching operational commitment, weaknesses tend to surface at the most crucial moment.

You can’t afford to keep reinventing the wheel every time there’s a new vulnerability. It’s time to understand what’s in the software and AI we build and buy.

The cancellation is yet another setback for CyberCorps scholars, who have struggled to find roles in government since the start of the Trump administration.

As AI becomes more widespread across government agencies, utilization must shift from general adoption to smart, intentional uses.

“Privacy is about your ability to control what information you are making available to whom for what reason,” Bethanne Barnes said.

Michael Thomas, director of ISOO, says AI poses plenty of challenges, but could also address longstanding challenges with controlled unclassified information.

The inability to produce data flow diagrams isn’t a documentation problem. It’s an architecture problem.

Hemant Baidwan, the former CISO at DHS and now executive CISO at Knox Systems, said his former agency is doing better to stay ahead of cyber threats.

Post‑quantum cryptography is now required, not optional. Federal and industry experts explain why visibility, crypto agility, and execution — not just new algorithms — will define quantum readiness.

Visibility changes the equation, paving the way to strengthen cyber resilience and systematically address the vulnerability backlog in government.

A federal appeals court on Wednesday refused to block the Pentagon from blacklisting artificial intelligence company Anthropic.

The agencies that treat personnel security as strategic infrastructure will operate with greater confidence, stronger oversight and more resilient missions.

They say Iranian-linked groups are targeting programmable logic controllers across multiple U.S. critical infrastructure sectors.

“I think there’s optimism, from an industry perspective, that we’ll be better than where we started at the beginning of the administration,” John Miller said.
