Born Compliant: Cyber Security in Defense Systems

Defense and other high-assurance environments face increasingly complex cybersecurity challenges, where protecting systems, data, and critical capabilities requires robust security measures and careful attention to regulatory and compliance requirements.

This workshop provides a practical overview of cybersecurity considerations in defense and high-assurance applications. Participants will explore relevant regulatory and compliance frameworks, common cybersecurity challenges, and strategies for identifying and mitigating threats throughout the development and lifecycle of systems.

The session will also highlight the importance of integrating cybersecurity into product and system design from the outset, helping organizations understand how security requirements can influence development, testing, risk management, and compliance.

Participants will explore:

• Cybersecurity challenges in defense and high-assurance environments
• Relevant regulatory and compliance frameworks
• Common threats and risk considerations
• Threat mitigation and security strategies
• Cybersecurity requirements for defense applications
• Integrating security into product and system development
• Compliance considerations and best practices

This workshop is ideal for cybersecurity professionals, engineers, product teams, and organizations working in defense or other high-assurance environments who want to strengthen their understanding of cybersecurity requirements and approaches.
