Author: Government Technology Insider January 2, 2024 Duration: 13:08

As more work occurs between on-premise environments and the cloud, and a rising number of connected devices, federal agencies must continue to evolve strategies for managing risk, compliance, and security in today’s complex operating environment.

Fortunately, many small businesses are filling this gap by effectively tackling this landscape of compliance and security for government. By fostering co-innovation between companies such as Arlo Solutions and Verizon, the federal government is able to take advantage of specialized and niche cyber offerings that help agencies to best address today’s cyber challenges.

In this episode, Emily Bien, Managing Partner for Small and Diverse, Partner Team at Verizon; and Lonye Ford, CEO of Arlo Solutions, discuss how co-innovation is helping to pave a new path towards advanced cyber capabilities.
