6. Government and Military Computer System Administration

This workshop is for sysadmins who have primary responsibility for computing systems owned by government or military agencies and for sysadmins who work in secure environments, deal with classified data, provide GOTS support, or deploy to remote locations in support of government and military requirements. This includes contractors, government civilians, vendors and suppliers, uniformed members, and anyone who has a direct hands-on IT support role in the government and military sectors are welcome to attend. Discussions will include topics like lessons learned from implementation of cloud technologies, data analytics in the government sector, and responding to policy and regulation requirements for IT and information security. This workshop is a great opportunity for sysadmins to compare notes between diverse agencies like DoD, DoE, DoC, NASA, and local governments. All workshop discussions will be strictly unclassified.
