Overview

June 15

For many state and local governments, increased reliance on telework is here to stay. So are expanded digital services and virtual interactions with constituents. On June 15, Government Technology will host live and interactive webcast created specifically to give state and local IT leaders in Kentucky valuable insights and advice to help their organizations thrive in this new environment.

Experts from the Center for Digital Government and Rubrik, a leader in cloud data management, will break down how the long-term shift to remote work and virtual service delivery changes the risk landscape for government organizations — and what this means for governance, management and protection of your jurisdiction’s critical data. They’ll also explain new approaches that can simplify data management while strengthening data security and resiliency.

- Recovering faster and minimizing the business impact of ransomware attacks

- Improving data management and protection across hybrid and multi-cloud IT environments

- Using machine learning to automate routine administrative tasks.
