ABOUT THE EVENT

The DOE Cybersecurity and Technology Innovation Conference is an annual capstone event designed to strengthen relationships, provide training and practical exercises to enhance the capabilities of the Information Technology (IT), Operational Technology (OT) and cyber workforce, and share best practices and lessons learned promoting cybersecurity and innovation priorities. The agenda is being crafted to drive innovation and cyber priorities in a way that dovetails with the Secretary’s goals of combating the climate crisis, creating clean energy union jobs, and promoting energy justice.
