# Broadcom Urges Federal Agencies to Integrate Telemetry

Broadcom security executive Manoj Sharma recommends that federal agencies continuously correlate identity and endpoint activity—including activity by AI agents—to strengthen zero-trust defenses across cloud, on-premises, and remote environments. The coverage points to contractor demand for integrated identity, endpoint, and telemetry capabilities and highlights the 2027 Defense R&D Summit on February 4, 2027, which will cover trusted AI, AI assurance, and AI-driven networks. No specific solicitation or contract award is identified.

- Contractors can position integrated identity, endpoint visibility, and telemetry capabilities for agencies seeking visibility across users, devices, applications, and AI agents.
- Procurement teams can use these capability areas to inform market research and evaluate how offerings support zero-trust visibility across cloud, on-premises, and remote environments.
- The February 4, 2027, Defense R&D Summit offers a relevant forum for stakeholders focused on trusted AI, AI assurance, and AI-driven networks; the signal does not identify a related procurement opportunity.
