In this virtual video panel series, WashingtonExec sits down with industry and public sector leaders to discuss current challenges, innovations and initiatives top of mind across the government IT landscape. 

WashingtonExec’s Amanda Ziadeh is joined by Kirk McClain, chief security officer of Accenture Federal Services, and Rich McComb, CSO of the Department of Homeland Security, to discuss the roles, challenges and collaboration of the CSO role in government and industry.

Tune in as both panelists discuss the scope of their respective roles and priorities, and the top challenges they’re facing as threats increase and security systems remain increasingly target-rich. McClain and McComb share how they’re tackling these challenges and what is meant by the term “more security is better.” Plus, they discuss how industry and government can work together to further protect security programs and improve security postures in both sectors.
