From AI Pilots to Mission Impact: Observability and Federal AI Success
<p>Federal agencies are deploying AI, putting it to work in cybersecurity, workforce efficiency, and citizen services. Yet fragmented visibility, inconsistent telemetry, and disconnected monitoring tools limit agencies’ ability to operationalize AI effectively. This paper examines the readiness gap and outlines the operational foundations that agencies need to scale AI securely and with confidence. Download to learn more.</p>
Cyber resilience is the backbone of missile defense
<p>The next era of missile defense may not be defined by the interceptor itself, but by the speed and precision of the data flowing behind it. As the proposed Golden Dome initiative pushes toward a tightly integrated “system of systems” spanning satellites, sensors, communications networks and weapons platforms, government leaders are confronting a new operational reality: Even the most advanced defense technology is only as effective as the infrastructure connecting it.</p>
3 Pathways to Building an Integrated, Digital Experience: A Guide for Federal Agencies
<p></p> <p>Driven by the America by Design Executive Order and OMB digital mandates, federal agencies must transition from legacy paperwork to intuitive, citizen-centered digital services.

A Practical Guide to Cyber Resilience in the Cloud
<p></p> <p>Federal agencies must shift from a traditional compliance-centric mindset to a proactive cyber resilience strategy to protect critical cloud workloads. This guide provides a five-pillar roadmap—covering Zero Trust, immutable data protection, and automated recovery—to help agencies withstand sophisticated state-sponsored and ransomware threats. Learn how Rubrik’s unified platform secures government data, reduces cloud costs, and ensures rapid mission recovery.</p>
Cyber Resilience Is Economic Resilience
<p></p> <p>Cyber resilience is essential for maintaining the U.S. economy’s stability and public trust. Rubrik provides a data-focused mission resilience strategy to safeguard the federal ledger, ensuring rapid recovery of verified, mission-critical financial data during active cyberattacks. By prioritizing a “Minimum Viable Economy” approach, Treasury bureaus can protect liquidity and maintain fiscal integrity, transforming cyber disruptions from national crises into manageable operational challenges.</p>
Lumen's 2026 Defender Threatscape Report
<p></p> <p>The 2026 Lumen Threatscape Report analyzes how nation-state and criminal actors are shifting toward infrastructure-driven operations to target defense networks. Leveraging backbone intelligence, it shows how attackers use AI, proxy ecosystems, and compromised edge devices to stage campaigns before execution. The report outlines how early visibility and disruption at the network layer help defend mission-critical systems and strategic assets. Download to learn more.</p>
The war on fraud. Protecting federal benefits programs.
<p>On March 16, the President signed an executive order standing up the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud. Member agencies now operate under 30, 60, and 90-day deadlines, and states that miss anti-fraud requirements risk losing federal funding. The threat has outpaced legacy controls. A single Russia-linked Medicare scheme reached $10.6B in fraudulent claims.</p> <p>In one Van Nuys neighborhood, Sayari mapped 270+ hospice businesses on eight blocks. Excluded providers continue to collect payments for years through associated entities. Sayari's new intelligence brief, <em><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sayari.com/lp-war-on-fraud/?utm_source%3Dgovexec%26utm_medium%3Dpaid-email%26utm_campaign%3Dwf-wc-war-on-fraud-report-04-2026-8263&source=gmail&ust=1780173392545000&usg=AOvVaw1E__mFNULplqWZpOrRggAI" href="https://sayari.com/lp-war-on-fraud/?utm_source=govexec&utm_medium=paid-email&utm_campaign=wf-wc-war-on-fraud-report-04-2026-8263" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">The War on Fraud</a></em>, shows how commercial intelligence turns the 30-day risk assessment into a 30-day intelligence operation: mapping fraud networks in hours, surfacing phoenix companies, and producing unclassified, releasable evidence for state partners and prosecutors.</p> <p>Read the brief to see how agencies are getting ahead of the next deadline.</p>
The Hidden Cost of Not Knowing What's in Your Contracts
<p>In state and local government, contracts are more than legal documents—they’re public accountability instruments, service delivery frameworks, and fiscal safeguards. From supplier agreements to facilities, construction, and intergovernmental agreements, everything begins (and ends) with what’s written in your contracts.<br /> </p> <p>But most government entities lack full visibility into these documents, which, in high-stakes moments, can be costly.

From alert chaos to site reliability excellence
<p>Cut through alert fatigue and transform noisy telemetry into predictable, resilient uptime with a practical blueprint for Platform Engineering and SRE teams.</p> <p>This guide shows how Cribl Stream flips that paradigm by acting as a telemetry control plane: filtering noise, enriching critical signals, and routing the right data to the right tools. That means less false alerts, stronger SLOs, faster MTTR, and tighter cost control, all while preserving full‑fidelity data for deep investigation.</p> <p>Discover how modern SRE and Platform Engineering teams are regaining control of their telemetry and their uptime.</p>
Troubleshoot complex application environments
<p>Modern application environments are noisy, fragmented, and increasingly difficult for SRE and DevOps Engineers to troubleshoot. With telemetry scattered across clouds, containers, and legacy systems, teams lose time sifting through low-value data, correlating signals manually, and reacting to alerts that don’t tell the full story.</p> <p>Cribl Stream and Edge give you back control by centralizing, shaping, and routing telemetry so you can see issues clearly and resolve them faster. See how to cut noise, enrich critical events, reduce MTTR, and lower observability costs – all while preserving full-fidelity data for faster investigations.</p> <p>Learn how to strengthen reliability, stabilize SLOs, and boost reliability without re-architecting your stack.</p>
Federal Endpoint Security Landscape
Capabilities, Performance, and Investment Focus
Transforming State and Local Government: From Manual Triage to Agentic Defense with Google SecOps
<p></p> <p>Cyber teams face an increasingly compressed landscape. Global median dwell time has risen to 14 days, according to the 2026 M-Trends report. Meanwhile, threat actors partner in distribution clusters where hand-off times to ransomware operators have plummeted to a median of just 22 seconds. You cannot fight AI-speed adaptation with human-speed reaction. Initial infection vectors have shifted: email phishing dropped to 6%, while voice phishing (vishing) surged to 11%, targeting government help desks to reset credentials. Download to learn more!</p>
