How Enterprises Leverage AI

Agencies are leveraging technological innovations and aligning data strategies with AI objectives to improve the military’s mission value. In March, the Department of Homeland Security launched an AI roadmap tailored to developing the agency’s procurement and use of the capability.

“The DHS AI roadmap and pilots will guide our efforts this year to strengthen our national security, improve our operations, and provide more efficient services to the American people, while upholding our commitment to protect civil rights, civil liberties and privacy,” said DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, a previous Wash100 Award winner

The roadmap outlines the DHS’s three lines of effort to ensure the safe, resilient and secure development of AI.
