Vertosoft's CTO Chet Hayes is a technologist at heart and has kept his finger on the pulse of the public sector for much of his career. Early on in his career, he cut his teeth in technical software architecture roles in organizations such as Sun Microsystems, Hughes Information Technology, and BEA Systems. Based in Virginia, much of his customer-facing work was with the federal government. For the past 15 years, Hayes has worked in various senior leadership positions serving the public sector.
While government organizations face many of the same technology challenges as private sector organizations, they also have unique requirements. Federal government agencies and their supply chains, in particular, tend to be ahead of the private sector when it comes to the use of cybersecurity frameworks. In this Kitecast episode, Hayes discusses how the NIST CSF, CMMC 2.0, FedRAMP Authorization, and other federal cybersecurity standards are driving the adoption of zero trust and other security best practices. Discover what he thinks are some of the biggest security opportunities and challenges facing the government sector today and how data privacy exposure risks play into both components by listening to this podcast.
