GovDataHosting, a division of IT-CNP, is proud to have sponsored Digital Government Institute’s virtual workshop, “Securing the Cloud.” The Digital Government Institute (DGI) workshop featured speakers from the Architecture and Engineering Center of Excellence at DHS’ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).
Branko Bokan, Chief of Architecture and Engineering Center of Excellence at DHS’ CISA was a keynote speaker and spoke about securing the cloud for the federal enterprise and reviewed the security policies that need to be applied to both internal agency and third-party management cloud environments to stay compliant.
With over 20 years of public sector and identity and access management experience, Ross Foard supports DHS’ CISA as a senior engineer in the Architecture and Engineering Center of Excellence. As a subject matter expert, he spoke about best practices for identity and access management (IAM) and how federated identity provides a solution for multi-cloud IAM. Identity federation simplifies secure user access by combining several components, including authentication, authorization, access control, intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), and service providers.
GovDataHosting enjoyed the opportunity to sponsor the DGI event, designed to educate IT professionals in the public sector of changes in the industry.
