Welcome to “HSDF THE PODCAST,” a collection of policy discussions on government technology and homeland security brought to you by the Homeland Security and Defense Forum
Our panel pulls back the curtain on a playbook that blends five-sigma reliability with bold bets on generative AI, edge computing, and zero trust—so agents get real answers in real time while security stays tight. This is a story about turning policy into operations, reducing tool sprawl with a strong Technical Reference Model, and building an architecture that meets the mission where it lives: at the edge.
Featuring:
- Sonny Bhagowalia, Assistant Commissioner and Chief Information Officer, CBP
- Sunil Madhugiri, Chief Technology Officer, CBP
- Dr. Barry West, former DHS Acting Deputy CIO (moderator)
This discussion took place December 12, 2025 at 8th Annual Homeland Security & Defense Forum Border Security Symposium
