SUMMARY:Mission-Ready Cyber: Stress-Testing Federal Defenses in Hyper-Realistic Ranges
DESCRIPTION:Federal agencies invest heavily in cybersecurity tools but tools alone do not guarantee mission readiness. As the 2026 National Cyber Strategy emphasizes disrupting adversaries and securing emerging technologies like AI\, cyber teams must operate effectively under real attack conditions\, not just meet compliance requirements. \nJoin Cympire and Carahsoft for a live demonstration of how federal teams can validate readiness through realistic cyber range exercises. This session will showcase how organizations can simulate modern threat scenarios—including AI-driven adversary behavior—within controlled environments modeled after real-world agency infrastructure. \nFeatured Speakers: \n\nGeneral Neil Hersey\, Advisory Board Member\, CyberproAI\nRichard Berthao\, President\, Cyberspace Knowledge Group\nJohn Shirley\, Range Master\, Cympire\nAry Nussbaum\, General Manager\, Cympire\n\nIn this session\, attendees will learn: \n\nHow federal teams can validate operational readiness through live-fire cyber range exercises rather than compliance-based training\nHow to simulate modern threat scenarios\, including AI-enabled adversary behavior\, in controlled environments\nHow cyber ranges can replicate realistic mission conditions to test detection\, response\, and team coordination\nHow agencies can rapidly deploy training environments to support scalable cyber exercises\nPractical ways to transition from static training to continuous readiness validation for federal cyber defenders\n\nClick here to register
