Riverbed Disrupt is an event for the government community designed to spark ideas and discussions among federal decision-makers about the priorities, initiatives and goals of the cloud-first era. From visibility to security all the way through to speed, we will explore the key components agencies should prioritize when assessing their cloud migration.
With cyber threats increasing in sophistication and breadth, the Federal Government is placing a greater emphasis on IT modernization and preparedness. This urgency makes it more imperative than ever that our nation’s critical infrastructure is capable of supporting sensitive applications and data. By discovering unique ways to approach cloud adoption with greater confidence, agencies can ensure Federal IT modernization and digital transformation become a reality.
During this free one-day event, you will:
- Learn about the government-transformative power of SD-WAN from leading technology experts at Riverbed and our partners, as well as their role in cloud-first
- See how to optimize cloud platforms with ease using Riverbed solutions
- Understand how new solutions from Riverbed and our partners enhance the performance of government applications
- Discover agency best practices for complying with federally mandated cyber initiatives
Registration is now closed for this event. We will see you next year
