Federal Cyber Certification Series 2026

The Federal Cyber Certification Series is a two-day conference designed to equip ICT product developers, federal contractors, compliance officers, and cybersecurity leaders with the critical insights needed to navigate the fast-evolving landscape of US government cybersecurity compliance. Featuring four special-focus events on IoT, software supply chains (SBOM), cloud services, and artificial intelligence, the program addresses the most urgent federal initiatives shaping the future of ICT product security. A global perspective is key. As US agencies roll out new certification regimes—such as the FCC’s Cyber Trust Mark, SBOM-based software validation, and FedRAMP cloud authorizations—product developers and integrators must also grapple with their alignment to international standards frameworks, especially established regimes in the European Union. This series highlights the growing interdependency between US and global compliance ecosystems, offering attendees a practical understanding of how to navigate overlapping mandates, minimize friction, and design for interoperability. With participation from key federal agencies, global thought leaders, and major industry players, this event is the essential forum for addressing the complex certification challenges facing the ICT sector. The Federal Cyber Certification Series builds on the foundation of our successful Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Certification Week, expanding both its scope and impact. Moving beyond the challenges facing the DIB, the Federal Cyber Certification Series addresses a broader array of certification mandates now reshaping ICT product development and implementation. Whether you're a veteran of DIB compliance or entering the federal market for the first time, this expanded series delivers the knowledge and connections to prepare you to achieve and maintain certification in a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.
