Edge Factor: Capabilities Powering Missions at the Edge
Presented by
GDIT
In today's landscape, agencies must operate in some of the world’s most unpredictable and high-risk environments at the edge — from the everyday postal route to remote battlefields and natural disaster zones to secure installations and contested domains. This episode explores how government and public sector leaders are addressing the unique operational, technical, and strategic challenges that arise when deploying advanced technologies like AI and machine learning at the edge.
With intermittent connectivity, limited infrastructure, and heightened security concerns that can arise anywhere and from individuals on and off the battlefield, traditional IT architectures are no longer sufficient. Experts will evaluate agency strategies to modernize connectivity, data management, and cybersecurity in ways that prioritize resilience and real-time insight, even in disconnected or degraded environments.
Tune in to hear how defense and civilian agencies are leveraging AI-powered analytics, edge computing, and adaptive architectures to turn field limitations into operational advantages — and what it takes to ensure these innovations are secure, scalable, and mission-aligned.
