Overview
In this webinar, we explain the operational realities of securing AI-enabled edge environments, from rugged laptops and tactical servers to autonomous systems and ISR platforms. Learn how the rise of distributed AI compute is expanding the attack surface, increasing the risk of battlefield loss, insider threats, credential compromise, and advanced forensic attacks. The session explores the tactical and strategic consequences of endpoint data exposure and explains why traditional enterprise encryption alone is no longer sufficient for protecting sensitive mission data. We also provide an overview of NSA CSfC Data-at-Rest (DAR) guidance, including layered encryption architectures, defense-in-depth strategies, and scalable approaches for protecting classified data across diverse operational environments.
Topics Covered:
- AI transformation of warfare and edge computing
- Classified data risks on tactical endpoints
- Battlefield operational security challenges
- NSA CSfC DAR framework explained
- Multi-layered endpoint encryption architecture
