Tackling the Cybersecurity Executive Order

From cybersecurity to the federal workplace, the world is changing. The way the government operates will need to adapt in order to keep up. Public sector leaders have read the writing on the wall and released several frameworks designed to help agencies adapt, including the Cybersecurity Executive Order and the President’s Management Agenda. As agencies grapple with this guidance, what do they need to know and how can they best equip themselves to meet these requirements? That’s what we’ll speak about on the Transforming Government Experience podcast, a four-episode series from ServiceNow in partnership with GovExec’s Studio 2G.

First, we’ll dig into the Cybersecurity Executive Order. It’s no secret that cyber threats are on the rise. As the government becomes more digital, combatting those threats becomes even more critical to the U.S. government’s ability to thrive and serve constituents. The executive order, released in May 2021, seeks to help agencies pave the way to more secure systems. 

To help agencies understand how to meet the requirements of the executive order — and why it’s crucial to do so — host James Hanson, group publisher for Federal and Technology Markets at GovExec, speaks with two of ServiceNow’s experts: Vice President of Business Development Robert Walker and Lead for SecOps Federal Sales Jeff Lacorte.
