Most practitioners building cybersecure environments know the basics: simplify system procedures, invest in continuous education, and elevate visibility across the network.

But what happens when new mandates are applied to legacy systems? The "bolt-on" approach is often expensive, frustrating, and ineffective.

This week on Feds At the Edge, experts from NETCOM, DARPA, and Axonius discuss how automation, AI, and continuous learning are reshaping cyber defense, and what agencies must do to build security that works.

We examine patching challenges, attack surface reduction, and how AI can help ease "task saturation," along with why visibility and education remain essential.
