About GovSummit
GovSummit is Splunk’s largest, free annual event focused on providing public sector leaders insights into the latest cybersecurity trends and how agencies are mobilizing to meet challenges like implementing zero trust. This year’s theme centers around how digital resilience powers your mission. We will not offer GovSummit virtually this year; this will be an in-person event only.
