Executive Spotlight With Guidehouse Advanced Solutions Director Don Heckman Tackles Government’s Cyber Hygiene, Company’s Culture & Strategy

ExecutiveBiz featured Don Heckman, director of advanced solutions at Guidehouse, in its most recent Executive Spotlight interview published Tuesday. He talked about Guidehouse’s culture and strategy critical to expanding its federal sector footprint, the necessity of having cybersecurity hygiene across the government and the impact of artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies on enhancing decision making.

Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Heckman about cybersecurity:

“As we continue to rethink our cybersecurity strategy moving forward, we need to adopt a zero-trust mindset. In a nutshell, zero trust is based on the concept of trusting no one and you are to verify everything. Every person, device, and process in your environment is interrogated before you grant access control to your environment and information. Additionally, monitoring all actions within the environment is critical. That’s a huge challenge to manage.”
