You Can Hack That: How to Use Hackathons to Solve Your Toughest ChallengesBooz Allen Hamilton
“Hackathon” has become a trendy word in today’s business vernacular, and for good reason. The word “hackathon” comes from both “hack” and “marathon.” If you think of a “hack” as a creative solution and “marathon” as a continuous, often competitive event, you’re at the heart of what a hackathon is about. Hackathons enable creative problem solving through an innovative and often competitive structure that engages stakeholders to come up with unconventional solutions to pressing challenges. Hackathons can be used to develop new processes, products, ways of thinking, or ways of engaging stakeholders and partners, with benefits ranging from solving tough problems to broader cultural and organizational improvements.
This playbook was designed to make hackathons accessible to everyone. That means not only can all kinds of organizations benefit from hackathons, but that all kinds of employees inside those groups—executives, project managers, designers, or engineers—should participate and can benefit, too. Use this playbook as a reference and allow the best practices we outline to guide you in designing a hackathon structure that works for you and enables your organization to achieve its desired outcomes. Give yourself anywhere from six weeks to a few months to plan your hackathon, depending on the components, approach, number of participants, and desired outcomes.
Contact Director Brian MacCarthy at MacCarthy_Brian2@bah.com for more information about Booz Allen’s hackathon offering.

4. The Road To Trusted Services Starts At Booz Allen
A key focus for developing an integrated, digital,
Government 2.0 infrastructure is implementing
sufficient security and identity safeguards, so
that constituents’ sensitive information is secure
and the government is not subjected to fraud.
To “trust” an online transaction each party
must have confidence in:
● The identity of the parties
● The way that the data will be handled,
managed and protected
● The security of the communications channel
being used
Booz Allen, one of America’s foremost
cybersecurity firms, has a documented record
of success for building security components
directly into the applications that ensure
systems, identity, finances and information are
safe from attack or theft. Booz Allen is leading
the way in the development of Trust Frameworks,
identity proofing and authentication systems and
standards with the federal government.
