This event will focus on the critical aspects of data management and its integral role in the DoD’s digital modernization strategy. It will provide an opportunity for I/ITSEC participants to engage directly with DoD Chief Data Officers—the senior executives responsible for overseeing the Department’s transformation into a data-dominant enterprise. This panel discussion will provide participants with insights into the changing roles and responsibilities Chief Data Officers face, and it will address specific policies, standards, and requests for the Defense industrial base as they develop, modernize, and implement new technology across the full spectrum of functional areas.
