Today's show focused on the concept of “Technology by Policy” and featured Federal Business Development and Marketing expert Rob Efrus and GitLab Federal CTO Joel Krooswyk. ROB'S TIP: “Try and walk in the shoes of your end user, federal customers, understand the pressures that they are facing, agency reorganizations, budget cuts, etc. doing more with less, and align your value proposition to those challenges and the policies that are driving those challenges.” JOEL'S TIP: “Find some good sources of information and just subscribe so you're up to date. Don't let policy fly by as some of it's going to be really important. Find a few news sources you like. I'm a big fan of subscribing directly to the White House and to CISA. If you just get a few of those things coming in your inbox, you can at least keep up with policy changes as they're being published.”

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com Our guest today is Jonathan Alboum, the Federal CTO for ServiceNow Federal. This interview should begin like Mission Impossible movies. “Jonathan, your mission, should you accept it, is to describe all the variations ServiceNow serves federal technology leaders. You have 25 minutes. This message will self-destruct in ten seconds.” This is an “impossible mission” because Service Now has customers in over one hundred agencies. It sure appears each instance is unique. One way to understand this “variation on a theme” is to look at the agenda for their annual conference. In March 2024, ServiceNow covered topics ranging from agile software development to forms to new vs. legacy applications. It is kind of hard to find a Gartner quadrant for ServiceNow. During the interview, Jonathan delves into one aspect of artificial intelligence and details the application of large language models and smaller large language models. Listen to the interview and consider it a “tasting menu” for efficiency, productivity, and integration concepts. Oh yes, it also dives into applied Artificial Intelligence.
Today, we're talking to Steve Orrin, Federal CTO at Intel. We discuss the government's grasp on AI, how cyberattacks are getting wildly more advanced, and how Steve thinks as a top CTO.

Want to leverage you next podcast appearance? https://content.leadquizzes.com/lp/fk1JL_FgeQ Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com Everyone likes to hit the “Easy” button, especially software developers. Rather than laboriously generate code line-by-line, today's software professionals may just grab code from a repository and re-purpose it. Why reinvent the wheel? Malicious actors have noticed this process and have inserted code into many libraries, acting like a like Trojan Horse. As a result, some organizations are offering codes that have been inspected. They look at known vulnerability lists and see if the code includes any of them. If not, it is given a seal of approval. Frequently, this is called a “Software Bill of Materials.” A convenient solution: however, upon inspection, SBOMs can be problematic. The weakness of SBOM During today's interview, Joel Krooswik, Federal CTO for Gitlab, described in detail some of the ways software must be continuously protected. According to the SBOM folks, the code is clean when leaves the “shelf.” However, due to continuous improvement code changes hourly. All an SBOM provides is a certification at a specific point in time for known vulnerabilities. Joel Krooswik gives listeners an enterprise architect's perspective. He indicates that digital transition introduces new code, new architectures, and innovative approaches. At any step along the way, security can be compromised. The unknown unknown Donald Rumsfeld famously said, “There are unknown unknowns.” This can be directly applied to what GitLab calls “fuzz” testing. This allows professionals to throw random inputs into a system to see what happens. Finally, you get a view of a potential possibilities that are not obvious. Joel Krooswik presents many insights when it comes to protecting software. He states that just because a system is identified as needing a patch, it does not mean it will be done in a flash. Understanding all the risk factors will allow a federal leader to make a prudent choice when it comes to protecting software systems. .

Hershberg, MIT instructor, CTO, and author of The Career Toolkit: Essential Skills for Success That No One Taught You. He joins us to talk about self improvement and leadership. Sometimes, being a good leader is stepping back and letting people with more diverse backgrounds and skills shine when the situation calls for it. Yet we should always be striving to improve ourselves and our skills so that the bottom line is always rising. Following him is Steve Orrin, Federal CTO at Intel. He dropped by to chat about innovation and how to form a team to drive company systems into the future. Steve covers making sure to have a diverse team (backgrounds and experiences) to throwing hard-to-solve issues at a team and just letting them go nuts instead of micromanaging. As he points out, sometimes failure is good and can lead to learning a great deal!
*Correction: In the podcast we refer to the federal government's IT budget as $90 trillion. The intent was to say $90 billion. The U.S. federal government is spending more than $90 billion on IT in 2021. That's a lot of Benjamins. When you consider that the Pentagon is reconsidering a $10 billion cloud computing contract on its own, and that federal agencies are trying to investigate the rise in ransomware across the country, you realize it's totally plausible. Add in the fact that spending on AI in government is seeing rapid growth, and you realize the spending is likely to go up from here. To discuss how the government is approaching IT, how it could combat ransomware, and even make use of AI we speak with a special guest on Tech Insights this week - Steve Orrin is the federal chief technology officer at Intel.
