Federal software supply chain resilience in 2025: 48,000+ new Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) expected, with 28% exploited within 24 hours. The exploitation window between vulnerability disclosure and exploitation is shrinking, but so are modernization timelines. Liz Burrows and Rob Smith, of GitLab’s public sector team, sat down to discuss how AI is transforming legacy system modernization in months, rather than years. The bottom line? Stop adding tools. The agencies leading in 2026 are consolidating into single platforms with AI built in, turning technical debt into mission advantage. Watch the full conversation to hear what's driving secure, AI-accelerated software development in the public sector. 👇
