One State. One Defense.
Why AI is changing the whole-of-state security case
October 15 at 1 p.m. ET
What whole-of-state security looks like now
Whole-of-state security used to mean state departments. Now it's counties, cities, school districts, water systems, libraries, and infrastructure operators, separate organizations with separate budgets. When one gets breached, the public doesn't read the agency's name. They read that the state got hacked. That mismatch is the business case for centralized security, and AI is only raising the stakes.
This session pulls from the real successes and lessons learned behind California's SOC-as-a-service program, the kind nobody tells you until you've lived it. Plus, AI is raising the stakes further: identity, agentic identities, and data security are reshaping what whole-of-state security has to cover. You'll leave with what that actually takes, not just the version that sounds good on paper.
On the Agenda
- What "Whole-of-State Security" Means Now: Why the scope has grown to every entity touching state infrastructure, and what that means for you.
- Lessons learned from California's SOC-as-a-service journey: What it takes to make centralized, shared visibility repeatable and scalable across every entity.
- The Business Case, Not Just the Security Case: Reputational risk makes whole-of-state security a leadership decision, not just a technical one.
- Securing AI: Identity, Data, and the Agents: Explore how identity, agentic identities, data security, and AI readiness are reshaping public sector cybersecurity.
