He points out that AI is now central to almost every cybersecurity discussion, being used both as a tool to strengthen defenses and as a weapon exploited by cyber adversaries. Schneider explains that AI's ability to process vast amounts of data has enabled organizations to make better use of telemetry and log files to detect and respond to threats more effectively. He also discusses the importance of international and intergovernmental collaboration, noting that cyber threats do not respect borders, making partnerships between governments and the private sector essential. Furthermore, the shift from discussing technologies in theory to focusing on practical use cases reflects a maturing understanding of cybersecurity. No single solution or product can address the entire spectrum of cyber risks, which means building comprehensive toolkits and fostering ongoing partnerships is critical. **Key Takeaways**: 1. AI is increasingly vital to both defending against and perpetrating cyberattacks, making it a core topic in modern cybersecurity strategies. 2. Organizations have moved from just collecting data to analyzing it in smarter ways, leveraging AI to process vast quantities of telemetry data and improve threat detection. 3. Effective cybersecurity requires strong partnerships between governments, the private sector, and international allies, as threats are global and demand collective responses.   [Share this blog post on Twitter](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=I+found+this+interesting+blog+post&url=https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/troy-schneider-vice-president-and-general-manager-at-billington-cybersecurity) [Share this blog post on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/troy-schneider-vice-president-and-general-manager-at-billington-cybersecurity) [Share this blog post on LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/troy-schneider-vice-president-and-general-manager-at-billington-cybersecurity) [Cyber](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/tag/cyber) ### [Craig Martell, CTO at Cohesity](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/craig-martell-cto-at-cohesity) [Previous article](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/craig-martell-cto-at-cohesity) ### [Rachna Krishnan, CEO of the Women’s Center](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/rachna-krishnan-ceo-of-the-womens-center) [Next article](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/rachna-krishnan-ceo-of-the-womens-center) #### You may also like [![image](https://fedgovtoday.com/hubfs/abod.png)](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/empowering-government-to-maximize-technology-investment) ### [Empowering Government to Maximize Technology Investment](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/empowering-government-to-maximize-technology-investment) Original broadcast 8/3/25 By [Fed Gov Today](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/author/fed-gov-today) 1-Aug-2025 [0](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/empowering-government-to-maximize-technology-investment) [Carahsoft](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/tag/carahsoft) [![image](https://fedgovtoday.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Dave%20Wennegren.png)](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/dave-wennergren-ceo-at-act-iac) ### [AI Transformation in Government Operations w/ Dave Wennergren, CEO at ACT-IAC](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/dave-wennergren-ceo-at-act-iac) By [Fed Gov Today](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/author/fed-gov-today) 10-Mar-2024 [0](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/dave-wennergren-ceo-at-act-iac) [Artificial Intelligence](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/tag/artificial-intelligence) [![image](https://fedgovtoday.com/hubfs/snowflake.png)](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/why-the-government-is-betting-big-on-saas) ### [Why the Government Is Betting Big on SaaS](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/why-the-government-is-betting-big-on-saas) By [Fed Gov Today](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/author/fed-gov-today) 18-Jun-2025 [0](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/why-the-government-is-betting-big-on-saas) [Carahsoft](https://fedgovtoday.com/industry-insights/tag/carahsoft) [![logo-fgt-2026-white](https://fedgovtoday.com/hubfs/logo-fgt-2026-white.svg "logo-fgt-2026-white")](https://fedgovtoday.com/) - [About](https://fedgovtoday.com/about) - [Contact](https://fedgovtoday.com/contact) - [Privacy Policy](https://fedgovtoday.com/privacy-policy) - [Advertise](https://fedgovtoday.com/advertisement) - [Subscribe to Our Newsletter](https://fedgovtoday.com/subscribe) [Follow us on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/fedgovtoday/) [Follow us on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/FedGovToday) [Follow us on Twitter](http://www.youtube.com/@fedgovtoday) [Follow us on Facebook](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fed-gov-today/id1658568583) [Follow us on Facebook](mailto:John@FedGovToday.com) Copyright © Fed Gov Today, LLC 2025.
