The Importance of Securing the Software Supply Chain

Posted on by Brett Zehnder

Moving Upstream: The Evolution of Software Supply Chain Attacks

The software supply chain consists of multiple components, touching every piece of code from the moment of conception to the moment of deployment into a Government application. This includes a variety of software, including third-party libraries, open source components, build tools and software architecture, making it a valuable target to hackers.

The software supply chain threat landscape has evolved from a series of disjointed yet targeted attacks to a broader upstream poisoning strategy. Historically, malicious actors targeted specific agencies; today, they have shifted to targeting upstream public software libraries and repositories. These open source libraries are used by thousands of Government agencies and can cause untold damage in a single attack. In the Public Sector, a compromised supply chain does not just mean a data link—it can constitute a threat to national security.

Several real-world cyberattacks exemplify this pattern change, including the 2025 Shai-Hulud software supply chain attack and the 2025 GlassWorm Integrated Development Environment (IDE) extension cyberattack. Malicious actors contribute code that appears to be helpful to public open source projects that contain hidden backdoors or vulnerabilities. In this case, it grants access to systems run by Government agencies.

Some hackers target the developer toolchain and IDE more broadly, as shown in the GlassWorm IDE extension cyberattack. GlassWorm was a self-propagating vulnerability whose initial threat injection was through an IDE extension download through a popular IDE extension marketplace. Other malicious actors have targeted artificial intelligence (AI)-powered supply chains, taking advantage of the speed and power of AI to propagate sophisticated multi-threaded threat campaigns against the developer ecosystem.

Setting Up for Success: Security Built Into the Process

In February 2022, the US Government published the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF) to combat threats to the software security chain. This publication divides guidance under four main practice groups:

Preparing the organization
Protecting the software
Producing well-secured software
Responding to vulnerabilities

These groups shift the model from fragmented security tools stitched together toward a unified process in which the security is baked directly into the developer’s workflow. For agencies, this framework provides a common language from which they can all develop a cohesive, secure and regulated software supply chain.

One of the ways developers can secure their supply chains is through Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs). SBOMs are essentially recipes for software; they outline all of the components inside a piece of software. These became required through Executive Order (EO) 14028 but creating them manually at the speed of modern DevSecOps is nearly impossible. Furthermore, as the Government manages risk and prepares for quantum-safe cryptography, the ability to support industry-standard and Federal compliance requirements for Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) and CycloneDX SBOM formats, which include Vulnerability Exploitability Exchange (VEX) and cryptographic information, is mandatory for mission success.

The automation of SBOMs affects multiple components of the software supply chain:

Real-Time Visibility: Agencies have insight into all aspects of the software supply chain, from the deployment of a new line of code to the introduction of common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) to their inventory.
Reach of Vulnerability: DevSecOps teams can look at a vulnerable part of a library and determine the status of execution, the path of remediation and how agencies should prioritize remediation efforts.
Continuous Compliance: Every automated SBOM ensures that every release is compliant with Federal standards without requiring manual audit every time.

Beyond SBOMs, Federal agencies can focus on implementing other safeguards. Developing a curation process to vet open source libraries and components before they are ever downloaded is a critical first step. Agencies should examine potential application and service exposures, such as leaked credentials or backdoors in the software architecture. Additionally, securing the code at the binary level ensures that what was tested and developed is exactly what is run in production.

The JFrog Software Supply Chain Platform: All in One

From inception of code to runtime during mission-critical operations, having a single platform that provides security and visibility across the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is crucial. The ensures those factors by focusing on universal binary management. It supports over 30 open source packages, including Docker, Maven and Python. , JFrog’s universal artifact repository manager, manages this package from one place, providing a single source of truth for developers that support mission-critical applications.

JFrog does not just look at the top layer for vulnerabilities and exposures; they scan deep into every dependency and sub-dependency within the binary to protect developer tools and infrastructure. Signed evidence at every gate creates end-to-end traceability from the developer’s IDE to edge deployment. The JFrog Platform is compatible with multiple network environments, from on-prem to hybrid to a multicloud flexible strategy.

As the Government modernizes its approach to digital transformation, agencies need industry partners that provide visibility into the next frontier. Security starts and extends across the software supply chain, from the inception of the code at the binary level to deployment of the application. The JFrog Platform delivers unprecedented trust assurance and risk mitigation through their signature binary-level security and positions and partners at the bleeding edge of innovation.

Built for This Moment (and All Those to Come) Introducing Symantec CBX: Finally, a security platform for smaller teams fighting larger threats

Posted on by Jason Rolleston

Disconnected, vendor-dependent security stacks leave smaller teams blind to threats and overwhelmed by noise they’re not equipped to manage.
Symantec CBX unifies Symantec and Carbon Black capabilities into a cloud-based XDR platform that delivers native telemetry correlation, AI-driven insights and enterprise-grade protections without enterprise-level complexity.
Built for resource-constrained teams, Symantec CBX reduces costs, cuts alert fatigue, accelerates response and gives organizations a long‑overdue advantage against increasingly sophisticated, AI-powered attacks.
See Symantec CBX in action in Booth N-5345 at RSAC 2026 Conference.

It’s time for the cybersecurity industry to face an uncomfortable truth: The tools meant to make organizations safer are often the very systems slowing them down, and sometimes leaving them vulnerable.

The problem is that security stacks are built over time from disparate tools that prevent analysts from seeing the full operating environment. Smaller security teams have relied on vendors to solve the challenge of integrating various products—and too often, vendors have fallen short, making it too difficult to gather and correlate the telemetry needed to understand what’s really happening across endpoints, networks and data.

While large enterprises have the resources to manage and integrate complex security stacks, left behind are the organizations that make up the largest swath of the cybersecurity customer market: smaller, less-resourced security teams that increasingly face AI-powered, enterprise-grade threats but lack the budgets and in-house expertise to implement enterprise-grade defenses. These sophisticated attacks can decimate smaller organizations, turning them into casualties of an fueled by nefarious AI agents that never miss a day of work.

These security teams don’t just need better tools. They need an advantage. Now they have one.

XDR from the pioneer of EDR

Today, we’re introducing , a groundbreaking new extended detection and response (XDR) solution that combines all the best capabilities of Symantec and Carbon Black into a unified, cloud-based platform. Symantec CBX is the first new product to integrate features from these two iconic brands. But more importantly, it’s the first fully featured XDR platform built expressly for smaller teams looking to evolve their security protections, but that lack the expertise and resources needed to configure and optimize traditional enterprise-class XDR solutions.

In Symantec CBX, we’ve distilled decades of innovation from Symantec and Carbon Black into a platform that solves the problem of correlating and making sense of telemetry across endpoints, networks and data. Typically, the various tools within security stacks attempt this via API integrations. But those fragmented couplings are often incomplete and leave dangerous gaps in visibility and actionable insight. Security analysts may understand that something is happening—they just don’t always know what it is or what to do about it.

The problem grows worse as attack surfaces expand. Organizations send more and more data to costly SIEM platforms, leading to a waterfall of challenges, from endless false positives that waste analyst time to murky outcomes that frustrate corporate management looking for evidence that security programs are working. These are costs smaller organizations can’t afford.

Symantec CBX solves this by combining into a single cloud platform Symantec’s robust prevention, data security and network security features with Carbon Black’s for deep visibility, exceptional threat detection and rapid response across attack surfaces. Spared from log-centric ingestion, security teams detect incidents more precisely and can act more confidently.

Native correlation is just the beginning

With Symantec CBX, native telemetry correlation sits at the center of a vast array of advanced capabilities that, until today, were available only from multiple point solutions. In CBX, we have integrated breakthrough features from Symantec and Carbon Black that make teams smarter and more efficient. Here’s what security teams can look forward to:

AI that makes life easier for humans at the helm. We’ve strategically deployed AI to deliver meaningful improvements to security workflows, resulting in capabilities that simply aren’t available anywhere else. Take , which allows any analyst to see all adversary activity in a single pane. (Even junior analysts can understand immediately where attackers came in, how they executed their attack and what data they accessed across endpoint, network, email and cloud environments.) The CBX platform also includes , which uses AI to stop living off the land (LOTL) attacks before they do damage. And Symantec’s Incident Prediction, the groundbreaking feature we introduced last year, predicts an attacker’s next four to five moves so teams can stop threat actors moving laterally to steal data or shut down systems.

More complete insights for faster remediation. , another AI-powered feature, gathers comprehensive data about incidents and presents them in well-written, intuitive summaries and remediation guidance so any analyst can engage mitigation when and where it makes sense.

Enterprise-grade network and data protections. Drawing from the best of Symantec Secure Web Gateway (SWG) and Symantec DLP solutions, this new XDR platform defends the network and data domains by stopping malicious traffic at the network edge, while packaging data security essentials from our to ensure that sensitive data stays where it belongs. Via the integrated Symantec Cloud SWG

Express, this new platform even supports post-quantum computing cryptography protocols, thus shielding organizations from the threat of increasingly common “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks and relieving concerns over the prospect of attackers someday unlocking encrypted data.

Meaningful outcomes and rapid time to value. Security managers are expected to continuously improve their team’s performance, but that’s not easy when disjointed solutions create needless friction and confusion, and multiple dashboards steal time from an already busy day. We built Symantec CBX with the features and that enable the outcomes security teams need most: driving down SIEM and operational costs, rescuing analysts from alert fatigue, speeding time to resolution, meeting governance requirements and demonstrating progress by improving metrics.

Out-of-the-box policy configurations make CBX easy to implement and deliver immediate value.

The Goldilocks platform for the heart of the market

Symantec CBX is aimed squarely at the heart of the cybersecurity market, empowering and enabling security teams of virtually any size with a platform that puts them first. No other XDR solution is built so specifically for organizations laboring under tight budgets, too few resources, a persistent lack of senior expertise, chronic alert fatigue and the ever-more–daunting .

Symantec CBX is the XDR platform for this moment and this market. As the first new solution from Broadcom to integrate capabilities from both Symantec and Carbon Black, CBX is the realization of our strategy to deliver on the we made when these two legendary brands first came together under Broadcom’s Enterprise Security Group. And it’s the ideal solution for our global network of Catalyst Partners, with their deep regional expertise and close customer relationships, as they help organizations struggling to keep up in an environment of constant change and unrelenting challenges.

Overwhelmed security teams need an advantage, and now they have one.

Integration Over Innovation: Cybersecurity’s Real Differentiator

Posted on by Brian O’Donnell

Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and security leaders are navigating an overwhelming number of platforms, tools and point solutions, each promising to close gaps in an organization’s security posture. The cybersecurity market is accelerating toward Zero Trust Architectures (ZTAs), artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning for threat detection and toward Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platforms, as organizations attempt to proactively identify and contain increasingly complex cyberattacks.

At the same time, rising concerns around supply chain exposure, remote workforce vulnerabilities and the rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) and Operational Technology (OT) environments are fueling investments in managed security services, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and identity-centric controls.

Yet despite the and rapid innovation, cybersecurity organizations continue to face breaches, operational disruptions and threats that slip past even sophisticated defenses. The issue is not a shortage of solutions—it is the complexity created when those solutions are deployed without operational alignment.

The Commercial CISOs Distinct Mandate

The problem is not a lack of innovation; it is a lack of integration. Because commercial organizations are not bound to a single prescriptive security model (NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, etc.), every decision about what to buy, integrate and prioritize is made in the service of protecting:

The company
Customers
Employees
Daily operations

This imperative requires every tool, team and process to function as part of a coherent, connected system.

A breach is not just a security event; it is a reputational crisis, a failure of customer trust and a direct threat to revenue and competitive standing. The organizations best positioned to respond to evolving threats are not necessarily those with the most advanced individual tools, but rather those that have built environments where those tools work together.

The Integration Problem: When Tools Multiply, So Do the Gaps

Organizations must invest in cybersecurity deliberately. Pilots are often promising, and initial results can look impressive, but the real test comes in year two when hidden interoperability failures emerge. Across industries, tools that perform well in isolated environments often struggle when integrated into broader operations. The result is predictable: more complexity, slower response times and critical threats falling through the cracks.

As organizations expand across hybrid and multicloud environments, the attack surface grows more complex, increasing the need for interoperable systems rather than isolated tools. Security silos are not just an architectural inconvenience—they are an operational risk. When endpoint tools cannot exchange data with a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system, or identity management platforms operate independently from network monitoring, organizations lose the visibility needed to detect threats before they become incidents. In competitive markets, loss of visibility is measured not only in recovery costs, but also in eroded customer trust.

For commercial organizations, gaps have consequences beyond IT, affecting customer relationships, brand reputation, third-party liability and the bottom line. The lesson is not to stop investing in new capabilities. It is to recognize that the value of any tool is determined less by its individual features than by how effectively it connects with the systems around it. Integration is the differentiator between a security environment that performs under pressure and one that does not.

What Resilient Organizations Do Differently

For every commercial organization struggling with fragmented tools and reactive security, there are others that have made different decisions, and the difference is rarely budget or access to technology. It is discipline, prioritization and a deliberate commitment to building environments that hold together under real-world operational pressure.

Resilient organizations share a recognizable set of characteristics:

Operational consistency is prioritized over tool proliferation.
Security maturity is measured through effectiveness, not the number of solutions implemented.
Visibility is consolidated into unified frameworks that give security teams a coherent view of the threat landscape.
Rapid response is made possible through connected tools, clear escalation paths, tested playbooks, and teams that understand how their responsibilities fit into the broader security operation.

The fastest-growing segment of cybersecurity is not isolated tools, but AI-enabled platforms designed to unify detection, visibility and response across environments. According to , the cybersecurity market is evolving from standalone, reactive solutions toward integrated, intelligence–driven security frameworks that emphasize proactive detection and automated response as foundational elements of organizational resilience. Organizations that operationalize integrated detection and response frameworks are better positioned to reduce dwell time, contain incidents and minimize operational disruption.

Perspective Across the Ecosystem

As the Trusted IT Solutions Provider, ̽��Ƶ works with 450+ vendors, 1,300+ resellers and sits across multiple sectors, lending a key perspective: tools that succeed in pilot or concept fail if they do not integrate into the broader operational ecosystem.

Observing such patterns has helped CISOs prioritize solutions that actually reduce risk, and has provided insight into which integrations truly hold up under real-world operational pressure.

Organizations that succeed focus on building connected environments where people, tools and processes are aligned, rather than accumulating capabilities in isolation.

For CISOs and security leaders, the question is not whether to invest in innovative technology, but how to ensure every investment strengthens the whole, not just the individual part. Every investment should reinforce operational clarity, accelerate decision-making and reduce friction during high-pressure moments.

In a threat landscape defined by speed and complexity, integration is a strategic requirement. The organizations that recognize this will not just withstand disruptions; they will navigate them with confidence, resilience and a measurable competitive advantage.

Keep More, Store Less: The Case for Advanced Compression in Federal EDR

Posted on by Richard Verwers

How agencies can retain full-fidelity data without overspending on storage

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) depends on data. The more telemetry you collect, the more context you have to detect threats, investigate incidents and meet Federal compliance requirements.

But data volume is also the problem. Federal agencies generate massive amounts of endpoint telemetry every day. Process activity. File changes. Network connections. User behavior. Multiply that across thousands of devices and storage requirements quickly grow beyond what many teams can sustain.

Security teams often face a difficult tradeoff: retain full-fidelity data and absorb higher storage costs, or limit retention and risk losing critical visibility.

That tradeoff is no longer necessary. Advanced data compression changes the economics of endpoint visibility. Agencies can retain unfiltered telemetry for extended periods without expanding storage budgets or adding operational complexity.

The Visibility–Storage Tradeoff is No Longer Sustainable

Federal cybersecurity requirements continue to raise the bar for telemetry collection and retention. Agencies must support Zero Trust initiatives, continuous monitoring programs and audit readiness. Modernization efforts increase the number of connected endpoints, including cloud workloads, remote systems and contractor-managed devices. Each new endpoint expands the telemetry footprint.

At the same time, budgets remain under scrutiny. Storage infrastructure must compete with other mission priorities and security leaders must justify every dollar. When storage costs climb, teams often respond in predictable ways:

Reduce retention windows
Sample or filter telemetry
Drop lower-priority event types
Offload data to external archives that are difficult to query

Each of these approaches creates blind spots. Shorter retention windows limit historical investigations and filtered data weakens threat hunting while fragmented storage slows response times.

In a threat context where adversaries can dwell quietly for months, incomplete data is a liability. Agencies need a way to collect and retain comprehensive telemetry without creating unsustainable storage growth.

Compression-First Architectures Improve Data Retention

Traditional security platforms treat compression as an afterthought. Data is collected at scale, stored in raw or lightly optimized formats and compressed later in the pipeline. By then, infrastructure costs are already locked in.

A compression-first architecture takes a different approach. Advanced compression techniques reduce data size at ingest. Telemetry is optimized as it enters the platform, not after it has consumed storage resources. The result is a significantly smaller storage footprint without sacrificing fidelity. For Federal security operations centers (SOCs), this shift has meaningful impact:

Longer retention without higher cost – Agencies can retain 180 days or more of full-fidelity telemetry while remaining within budget constraints.
Unfiltered visibility – Teams do not need to decide in advance which data might matter later. They can keep it all.
Faster investigations – Optimized storage enables efficient querying across large datasets, supporting threat hunting and incident response.
Simplified architecture – Native compression reduces the need for external storage tiers or complex archival systems.

Instead of managing tradeoffs, security teams regain flexibility.

Full-Fidelity Data Supports Compliance and Zero Trust

Federal mandates increasingly require measurable security maturity. Continuous monitoring, device-level visibility and documented audit trails are central to that effort, and retention depth matters.

When agencies can access complete endpoint histories, they strengthen their ability to:

Validate Zero Trust controls within the device pillar
Reconstruct events during forensic investigations
Demonstrate compliance with evolving Federal security requirements
Support reporting obligations tied to vulnerability and risk management

Short retention windows make it harder to answer fundamental questions: When did this behavior begin? Was lateral movement attempted? Did similar activity occur on other systems?

With compressed full-fidelity data, those questions become easier to answer and teams can look back months, not days. This level of historical visibility supports stronger analytics, more informed risk decisions and more defensible reporting.

Cost Efficiency Matters Under Federal Scrutiny

Every Federal technology investment must demonstrate operational value. Advanced compression directly addresses cost concerns in several ways:

Reduces total storage consumption
Delays or eliminates additional infrastructure purchases
Lowers operational overhead tied to managing multiple storage systems
Minimizes data movement between tiers

At the same time, it strengthens the overall security posture by preserving data that might otherwise be discarded. This combination of efficiency and depth is particularly important for agencies balancing modernization initiatives with budget discipline.

Security cannot become a cost center that expands without limit. It must scale responsibly. Compression-first EDR architecture supports that balance.

The Federal security community no longer needs to accept a compromise between cost and visibility. Advanced data compression enables agencies to:

Collect unfiltered endpoint telemetry
Retain data for extended periods
Support Zero Trust maturity
Strengthen investigative capabilities
Maintain fiscal discipline

As agencies define the next standard for Federal EDR, data strategy must be part of the conversation. Retention, accessibility and efficiency determine whether telemetry delivers long-term value.

Integrated Threat Hunting: A Smarter Path for Stretched Federal SOCs

Posted on by Richard Verwers

Why visibility, automation and collaboration are now mission-critical

Federal Security Operations Center (SOC) teams are under relentless pressure. Teams are increasingly stretched thin as agencies grapple with AI-enhanced threats, Zero Trust requirements and operational mandates like FISMA 2.0. Despite limited staff and growing workloads, though, the mission remains clear: defend critical infrastructure, secure sensitive data and maintain compliance.

For split-second contexts in the face of critical alerts, fragmented tools and siloed data only make matters worse. Analysts lose time switching between platforms. Revalidating and responding to quickly escalating threats takes time away from mission continuity.

Federal SOCs require integrated, intelligence-driven platforms that support end-to-end threat visibility, rapid response and secure information sharing.

Modern Federal SOCs Face Mounting Challenges

Staffing shortfalls are now a systemic issue. unfilled roles globally, with Federal agencies competing for a shrinking pool of qualified professionals.

Meanwhile, tool sprawl and console fatigue complicate workflows. Analysts must juggle multiple platforms to correlate data, validate incidents and track lateral movement all while meeting increasingly complex compliance reporting mandates.

Agencies must also contend with:

AI-generated malware that evades signature-based detection
Expanding attack surfaces from hybrid environments and remote endpoints
Escalating compliance expectations tied to FISMA modernization, OMB M-24-14 and Zero Trust architecture maturity

To keep pace, teams need tools that consolidate, correlate and streamline.

Real-time Response Enhances SOC Agility

Threat impact is defined by the time it takes to respond properly. Delayed containment leads to higher costs and increased exposure. That’s why real-time response is now essential to any defensible cybersecurity posture.

Modern endpoint detection and response (EDR) platforms allow teams to:

Isolate compromised endpoints instantly
Terminate malicious processes at the source
Prevent data exfiltration in-flight
Apply automated playbooks for repeatable, standards-based remediation

These capabilities reduce manual intervention and align with CISA’s SOAR guidance, enabling SOCs to act swiftly within a Zero Trust model. For Federal teams, this also supports audit-readiness with timestamped forensic records that meet FISMA and OMB compliance requirements.

Unified Telemetry Accelerates Threat Hunting

Siloed data weakens an analyst’s ability to detect patterns and perform deep investigations. By unifying endpoint telemetry across devices and environments, teams gain access to richer datasets and longer retention windows for root cause analysis.

Carbon Black EDR captures high-fidelity endpoint activity and retains up to 180 days of telemetry, letting teams uncover threats that may have originated weeks or months prior.

With behavior-based analytics, SOCs can move past static signatures and detect anomalies faster. This involves pinpointing lateral movement, privilege escalation and indicators of compromise before damage escalates.

Collaboration and Data Sharing Reduce Operational Risk

Cybersecurity is a team sport, but without integrated data sharing, even the best defenses can fall short. Fragmented environments limit visibility, making it difficult to act on shared intelligence across tools and agency teams.

Integrated platforms streamline threat intelligence sharing through features such as:

The Carbon Black Data Forwarder, which simplifies integration with SIEM/SOAR platforms
API-driven data sharing that supports automation and collaboration
Compatibility with Zero Trust frameworks, particularly the Device Pillar of OMB M-24-14

With cross-environment visibility and collective learning, SOC teams can improve incident response while advancing cybersecurity maturity across the agency.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

Federal SOCs face high-stakes situations where time and clarity are critical and impact lives in real time. Every alert demands focus. Every decision must be defensible. To operate effectively under pressure, teams need platforms that reduce noise, unify workflows and enable smart action.

Carbon Black and ̽��Ƶ help Federal teams do more with less. We empower analysts with the real-time insights and interoperability they need to protect what matters most.

10 Healthcare Technology Predictions Shaping 2026

Posted on by Tim Boltz

̽��Ƶ, The Trusted IT Solutions Provider for the Healthcare Industry™, supports healthcare organizations in their mission to deliver efficient, high-quality care across the enterprise. Our comprehensive portfolio of healthcare solutions addresses critical needs across clinical systems, patient experience, enterprise operations, infrastructure and more. We help healthcare organizations streamline workflows, reduce administrative burden and improve security, maximizing the value of technology investments. As healthcare continues to evolve through regulatory changes, innovation and shifting care delivery models, these 10 trends represent the most significant opportunities and challenges facing the industry in 2026.

Interoperability: From Compliance Exercise to Strategic Asset

The 21^st Century Cures Act and the Office of the National Coordinator’s (ONC) Health Data, Technology and Interoperability (HTI)-1 Final Rule have pushed standardized Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR)-based Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and expanded data classes into the market. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Interoperability and Prior Authorization Final Rule adds pressure on both payers and providers to exchange information seamlessly. In 2026, however, organizations that treated these regulations as checkbox compliance activities will watch competitors turn interoperability into operational advantage.

Real-time data feeds reduce prior authorization delays. Integration platforms surface insights that drive value-based care arrangements. Data warehouses built for exchange, not just storage, become the foundation for population health management. The early adopters are not just meeting regulatory requirements. They are using data exchange to reduce administrative burden, improve care coordination across settings and unlock revenue opportunities that siloed systems leave on the table.

The Transparent Use of AI in Healthcare

In 2026, healthcare leaders will shift from asking should they use AI to how to document and explain it. The HTI-1 Final Rule introduced algorithm transparency requirements: disclosure when artificial intelligence (AI) and machine Learning (ML) algorithms influence clinical decisions. Clinical teams need to understand when AI-driven insights are guiding care recommendations, and patients deserve to know when algorithms influence their treatment plans.

Regulatory bodies expect organizations to prove their AI tools meet safety and efficiency standards. The organizations that move early on AI governance frameworks, establish clear documentation standards and train clinicians on algorithm literacy will be ready when transparency moves from recommended to required.

AI will also be used as the voice of healthcare. Call center staff miss operational targets by spending 25 minutes on a single call, AI, however, can make 50+ simultaneous calls while giving each patient the time they need. This capability transforms patient engagement at scale. AI enables follow-up with 100% of discharges, identifying interventions that prevent readmissions and materially impact the quadruple aim: better outcomes, better patient experiences, lower costs and improved clinician satisfaction.

Telemedicine Shifts to Integrated Care Model

Telemedicine exploded during the pandemic as an emergency solution. In 2026, leading organizations will stop treating telehealth as a separate channel and start embedding it into the care continuum. Digital front doors guide patients to the right care setting, whether that is video, in-person or asynchronous messaging.

The technology exists and the patient demand has been proven, but what is missing is the operational maturity to weave virtual care into clinical workflows, reimbursement models and quality measurement. Organizations that integrate this technology into their environments will deliver better access without fracturing the care experience.

The Revenue Cycle

Healthcare organizations have been exploring AI in clinical settings (ambient documentation, diagnostic support, care coordination), but the revenue cycle may deliver faster more measurable returns. Prior authorization is a prime target. AI can automate the documentation assembly, predict approval likelihood and flag missing information before submission.

Coding accuracy is another opportunity. Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools can analyze clinical documentation and suggest appropriate diagnosis and procedure codes, reducing claim denials and capturing revenue that incomplete documentation would lead to. The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) conversation around AI will shift in 2026. Revenue cycle leaders will demonstrate tangible Return on Investment (ROI): fewer denials, faster reimbursement and reduced administrative costs. These wins will fund broader AI adoption across the enterprise.

Value-Based Care

The shift to value-based care has been talked about for years, but 2026 is when data infrastructure limitations become impossible to ignore. Value-based contracts require organizations to track outcomes across care settings, measure quality metrics in real time and identify high-risk patients before they become high cost. Siloed Electronic Health Records (EHRs), fragmented data warehouses and manual reporting processes cannot support these requirements.

Organizations need integration platforms that pull data from multiple sources, such as inpatient, outpatient, lab, pharmacy and claims. They need analytics tools that surface actionable insights, not just dashboards, and they need governance frameworks that ensure data quality and consistency.

The healthcare organization succeeding in value-based arrangements are not necessarily the largest or best-resourced. They are the ones that invested early in data infrastructure and developed the analytical capabilities to turn information into action.

Cybersecurity: From IT Issue to Board-Level Risk

The proposed changes to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Security Rule published December 2024 represents a significant escalation in regulatory expectations. If finalized in 2026, covered entities will face requirements for data encryption, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), network segmentation, vulnerability scanning and penetration testing. The Department of Health and Human Services’ (DHHS) Cybersecurity Performance Goals provide a voluntary framework, but the proposed HIPAA updates suggest these practices may become mandatory.

Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) who can translate technical risks into business impacts will gain influence. Organizations that invest in both technology controls and governance frameworks will build resilience that extends beyond compliance checkboxes. Organizations that elevate cybersecurity to a strategic priority will be better prepared when threats escalate.

The Digital Front Door

Patient expectations have changed. People expect to schedule appointments, complete intake forms and access their health information online. The digital front door is more than a patient portal. It is a comprehensive strategy to meet patients where they are. In 2026, leading organizations will integrate digital patient engagement tools into a seamless experience, reducing administrative burden on staff, improving patient access and generating operational efficiencies.

However, digital tools that do not connect to existing workflows create more problems than they solve. Integration of patient-facing technology with operational systems eliminates duplicate work and improves patient and staff experiences.

Rural Healt�󳦲��հ��Բ��ڴǰ��پ��ǲ��

The Rural Health Transformation Program represents the most significant Federal investment in rural healthcare infrastructure with $50 billion over five years, starting in 2026. This funding creates opportunities for technology investments that rural hospitals and health systems, particularly patient-facing solutions, technical assistance for IT and cybersecurity and innovative care models that often depend on digital tools.

Rural organizations that prepare strong applications will access resources that can transform their operational capabilities. However, rural organizations often lack the IT staff, strategic planning capacity and vendor relationships that larger systems have. The organizations that succeed in securing and deploying these funds will be those that partner with experienced implementation teams, prioritize high-impact use cases and build sustainable technology roadmaps.

Technology vendors and solution providers should pay attention to this program. It represents a market opportunity to support underserved communities with solutions that improve access, reduce costs and strengthen resilience.

Workforce Solutions Beyond Scheduling and Talent Management

Healthcare’s workforce crisis continues as burnout and turnover remains high. Traditional solutions help but do not solve the underlying challenges and impact staffing shortages have on care delivery and patient experience. In 2026, forward-thinking organizations will expand their workforce technology strategy beyond administrative efficiency to include tools that directly reduce clinician burden and improve job satisfaction.

Clinical and operational technologies improve the work experience, and organizations that recognize this and invest accordingly will differentiate themselves in competitive labor markets. Workforce development technology such as training platforms, competency management systems and career advancement tools can help organizations grow talent internally rather than recruiting externally. This is especially valuable for rural hospitals that cannot compete with compensation alone. The organizations that treat workforce challenges as technology opportunities will build more resilient, engaged and effective teams.

The Role of Process Automation

Healthcare has embraced automation is administrative functions like claims processing, appointment reminders and billing. These applications deliver clear ROI and do not require clinical engagement. Clinical applications, however, require different considerations than back-office automation. These workflows involve judgement, variability and patient safety concerns.

Automation in clinical settings requires trust. Clinicians need to understand how automated processes work, when to intervene and how to escalate exceptions. IT and operational leaders need to ensure automation enhances workflows rather than creating workarounds that introduce new risks. Healthcare organizations that approach automation thoughtfully will reduce burden, improve efficiency and demonstrate that technology can support instead of complicate clinical work.

These trends represent opportunities for healthcare organizations to leverage technology in pursuit of better outcomes, improved efficiency and stronger financial performance. The organizations with clear priorities, engaged leadership and commitment to implementation will position themselves for success. As regulatory requirements evolve and patient expectations rise, technology partnerships become essential to delivering high-quality care while managing costs and operational complexity.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Federal Cybersecurity Mandates

Posted on by Craig Picken and Elizabeth Schultheisz

Federal cybersecurity mandates are constantly evolving to keep pace with a rapidly changing technological ecosystem, focusing primarily on visibility and record-keeping within software architecture. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) remains a steadfast and reliable investigative tool, tracking, alerting to and aiding resolution of suspicious endpoint activity across an agency’s siloed infrastructure.

“Never Trust, Always Verify” With EDR

As malicious actors’ methods and priorities shift the Federal Government’s must evolve as well. Current cybersecurity mandates emphasize a Zero Trust approach, focusing on verifying all end users and devices in near real-time. These mandates should be considered the minimum requirement for an agency’s cybersecurity posture. Agencies should deploy multiple verification and prevention technologies to secure those endpoints.

An effective EDR solution can quickly distinguish between normal and anomalous activity in Federal endpoints. Its continuous monitoring is critical for rapidly assessing a threat before sensitive information can be stolen and leaked. Cyber attackers use sophisticated techniques, including artificial intelligence (AI) to gain an advantage. With EDR, Security Operations Center (SOC) analysts can forensically examine the chain of events and not only resolve an issue but proactively set up safeguards to prevent future incidents.

As the threat landscape evolves, it is important not to get caught up in buzzwords such as “modern” EDR. Typically “modern” means that the solution requires cloud connectivity, which can leave crucial blind spots in areas including air-gapped, limited connectivity or other disadvantaged environments. While new EDR capabilities are always being developed, the fundamental aspects have always remained the same. Visibility, as always, is the most crucial of all. An effective EDR solution is feature-rich, mature and can monitor in diverse environments.

Carbon Black EDR: Visibility on All Fronts

Regarding Public Sector cybersecurity, the primary objective is to protect the entire environment, from air-gapped and cloud environments to end-of-life operating systems. As the founders of EDR, Carbon Black offers a mature solution that can be configured to alert SOC teams to previously unknown, potentially interesting activity. By using open Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), agencies can retain total data sovereignty and pass it off to Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems.

Carbon Black EDR offers a full lifecycle cybersecurity solution. The solution proactively and continuously monitors all endpoints and is compatible with multiple integrations. Through watchlists, threat intelligence and other methods, Carbon Black EDR detects anomalous or malicious activity and helps SOC analysts respond through various means. SOC teams can also visualize the progression of the attack through diagrams or timelines. This customizable threat intelligence allows Carbon Black EDR to be a well-rounded solution for any agency looking to align with Federal cybersecurity mandates.

A mature, effective EDR solution always has endpoint activity awareness at the forefront, giving SOC analysts unparalleled visibility into their environment. This focus is crucial, as Federal mandates continue to focus on a Zero Trust approach to cyber security. Increasing your endpoint visibility through EDR not only improves reaction time during a crisis incident but allows SOC teams to proactively prevent future cyberattacks.

How Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Creates a Successful Cybersecurity Posture

Posted on by Craig Picken and Elizabeth Schultheisz

Stringent cybersecurity measures are crucial to secure Public Sector operations, and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a critical tool in that belt. Malicious adversaries range from rogue actors to nation-state-sponsored attacks, and all frequently target specific organizations that deal with highly sensitive data. By itself, EDR can quickly identify abnormal behaviors or code and help the SOC analyst team respond accordingly. When paired with other Security Operations Center (SOC) tools, EDR further broadens SOC visibility and increases operational efficiency. Federal agencies can use that intelligence to not only resolve security breaches, but also proactively adjust their security measures to prevent further incidents.

All Eyes on the Data: EDR and Data Visibility

Visibility is a fundamental tenet of EDR. When SOC teams have access to data that is current and actionable, they can make calculated, proactive decisions and respond appropriately in crisis scenarios. An effective EDR tool will monitor existing data, detect anomalous behavior and respond to threats in real time.

Data from across multiple sources is recorded and compared against watch lists that SOC analysts can use to search for anomalous activities. Additionally, known threat vectors are continuously monitored in near real-time, and analysts are automatically alerted to suspicious behavior. EDR looks at all endpoint activity, not just individual data silos, and presents that raw data to SOC analysts in a usable, searchable manner.

Efficiency and Data Quality: Two Sides of the Same Coin

It is not just the quantity of data SOC teams can access that matters; the quality of the data is just as crucial. Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and SOC teams need to make fast, defensible decisions in both routine and crisis scenarios. Analysts do not have the time to sift through all alert activity and determine those that need immediate response. An effective EDR solution allows for tuning of watchlists to prioritize alerts. By receiving higher fidelity alerts, SOC analysts optimize time spent investigating and providing real-time response by isolating endpoints or acting directly to terminate suspicious processes.

It is not enough for security alerts to be prioritized; if the information is unreliable or incomplete, any analyses or flags extrapolated from that data are virtually worthless. A data-based EDR solution allows SOC analysts to resolve issues quickly, reducing the risk of faulty decisions.

Carbon Black EDR: The Premier Option

After observing the need for security and visibility in endpoints, Carbon Black was founded and pioneered EDR. Its open architecture with Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) makes it possible to correlate the data with other SOC tools, such as network, identity, endpoint protection and data protection tools. Additionally, Carbon Black EDR can integrate with different security products, including Security Information and Event Management Systems (SIEMS). This holistic vision allows SOC teams to understand the entire lifecycle of potential attacks, and accurate data ensures that analysts know exactly what, where and how an incident occurred.

This layered approach to cybersecurity is especially valuable to the Public Sector. Many Federal teams work in multiple siloed or air-gapped networks, and each of these networks have different functions. Carbon Black EDR has the flexibility to be deployed in multiple environments and tailored to their individual operations.
