                                              • Room: Nautilus II
                                              The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) serves as the foundational rulebook governing how the U.S. Federal Government acquires supplies and services. For government contractors—both prime contractors and subcontractors—maintaining compliance across the regulatory landscape is vital to winning awards, ensuring timely payments, and protecting business reputation. With recent landmark initiatives such as Executive Order 14275 and OMB Memorandum M-25-26 initiating a major overhaul of federal procurement regulations, staying up to date on core compliance requirements has never been more critical. This session provides an essential roadmap to understanding and managing FAR compliance. Attendees will explore the four critical pillars of federal compliance: business... ...read more...

The concept of “harvest now and decrypt later” is the reason why we need to solve for “quantum resistant” cryptography today. The good news is that we now have PQC available, but the challenge is that the problem set might be more than you expected. In this week’s session, we will be discussing PQC with notable subject matter experts in this field. They will help us understand what we need to know as cybersecurity professionals. ...
