Zero Trust in 2026: Operationalizing Software Security for Federal and Defense Missions

<p>Zero trust verifies who is asking for access, not whether the application behind it can be trusted. This Checkmarx white paper translates OMB M-22-09, EO 14144, and OMB M-26-05 into a four-phase roadmap for software-centered zero trust and a mandate-to-evidence table: the SBOMs, application security test results, and records to retain for ATO, cATO, and contractor oversight. Learn how to produce defensible software evidence without reconstructing release history for every authorization review.</p>

Unlocking Data from Digital Archives

<p>While government modernization has digitized vast archives, it has inadvertently produced disconnected modern data silos where critical institutional knowledge remains trapped and unusable. This whitepaper outlines a strategic roadmap to dismantle these silos using Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) to extract, structure, and classify dormant records. By pairing automated processing with metadata governance and risk-based human validation, agencies can transform fragmented collections into accessible, AI-ready assets that advance current missions.</p>

Preparing the Federal Government for the Post-Quantum Era

<p>This whitepaper outlines an enterprise strategy for preparing federal agencies for post-quantum cryptography (PQC). Migration requires more than replacing algorithms; it demands connecting cryptographic inventories to mission criticality, system lifecycles, and operational constraints. Because legacy systems and operational technology require years of hybrid co-existence, federal leaders must embed cryptographic agility into planned refresh cycles, acquisition processes, and mission-informed testing to ensure long-term enterprise readiness.</p>

A guide to AI sovereignty: How HPE and NVIDIA help agencies balance control, compliance and scale

<p>As AI transitions from experimental pilots into core operational environments, maintaining strict control over data, where it resides, model behavior and overall system governance is both a strategic and regulatory imperative. Particularly given the sensitivity of government workloads, scaling AI requires a careful balance between deployment speed and authority over data, infrastructure and outcomes.</p>

How modern is your modernization?

From recovering legacy knowledge to preparing for quantum, agencies need a foundation that can evolve with the mission.
