The window between vulnerability discovery and exploitation has collapsed. Adversaries are using AI to identify, prioritize, and act on weaknesses faster than traditional defense processes can respond.

At the same time, federal systems face real constraints: legacy infrastructure that can’t be easily replaced, authorization timelines that slow change, and teams managing more with less across increasingly complex environments.

Together, these pressures are reshaping how defense has to operate. Join us for a practical discussion about what this convergence looks like on the ground and what it takes to stay mission ready when threats are moving at machine speed. 

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:

• How AI is changing adversary behavior for federal and defense networks
• What faster exploitation means for patching, authorization (ATO) timelines, and risk acceptance
• Where to focus validation and mobilization efforts to ensure controls hold up against real-world attack paths
