Embracing Digital This Week

Government digital transformation is being pushed by AI, cybersecurity, and advanced communications faster than governance can adapt. This creates a control-plane lag where decision rights, validation, accountability, and resilience design fall behind operational reality. In this briefing, Dr. Darren Pulsipher explains why AI governance must be embedded into the operating model, not added after deployment, and why cybersecurity now has to be managed as continuity of operations across IT, OT, and agency boundaries. The video also shows why advanced communications should be treated as mission infrastructure, with interoperability and shared state as leadership priorities rather than optional upgrades. The key message for public sector leaders is clear: transformation succeeds only when governance, role design, oversight, and resilience are redesigned at the same speed as adoption.
