As adversaries increasingly target the systems that power, move, connect, and sustain the nation, critical infrastructure security has become inseparable from national defense. From industrial control systems and operational technology networks to supply chain dependencies and cloud-enabled ecosystems, the convergence of cyber threats and physical infrastructure risk is reshaping the modern battlespace.
This panel brings together senior leaders from government and industry to discuss how the United States can strengthen resilience, accelerate cyber defense collaboration, and secure the infrastructure essential to military operations, economic stability, and public trust. Panelists will explore the evolving threat landscape facing critical infrastructure sectors, the growing importance of public-private operational synchronization, and the urgent need to modernize risk management strategies for contested environments.
The discussion will also examine the role of supply chain security, industrial control system protection, data visibility, cyber integration across federal and defense organizations, and the technologies required to achieve confidence, speed, and precision in defending critical systems at scale. Attendees will gain insight into how government, industry, and mission partners can collectively dominate the digital battlespace by building resilient infrastructure capable of operating through disruption, attack, and uncertainty.
