DoD ICAM and IL5: Mission-Critical Cloud Security

As Federal agencies increasingly move their systems to the cloud, maintaining cloud security is paramount, especially for defense organizations devoted to protecting Americans from harm.

The Department of Defense (DOD) planned to spend at least $1.1 billion on cloud computing services and migration in fiscal year (FY) 2022 and is requesting $1.2 billion in FY 2024 to “enhance cloud computing efforts to eliminate IT infrastructure obsolescence and improve end-user experience.”

Central to securing these efforts is DOD’s Impact Level system for cloud security, especially DOD IL5, which is the highest level of security controls required for unclassified data deemed mission critical.

Join us to discuss DOD’s rapid move to the cloud and to dive into IL5, exploring its stringent security controls, the potential consequences if mission-critical systems or data are compromised, and why IL5 ICAM is so vital to protecting cloud systems in today’s ominous cybersecurity threat landscape.
