What’s the most important role of the chief data officer?

The U.S. military has moved to an interconnected battlefield in which data can move seamlessly between air, land, maritime, space and cyber in real time. Modern battlefield networks are increasingly tasked with not only the transport of voice but also large and varied data types, including still images, video, sensor data, maps, situational awareness data and inventory information. In addition to transporting the raw data itself, these network...

The DoD Software Modernization Strategy, approved February 1, 2022, recognized that the Department increasingly relies on software and the ability to securely and rapidly deliver resilient software. Transforming software delivery times from years to minutes requires significant change to our processes, policies, workforce and technology. The strategy challenged us to be bold—to lead the transformation of technology, process and people in...

The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) provides, operates and assures command and control, information-sharing capabilities and a globally accessible enterprise information fabric that directly supports national-level leaders, the military services, combatant commands and coalition partners across the full spectrum—from competition through conflict. During the upcoming AFCEA TechNet Cyber Conference in Baltimore, Maryland, May 2-4...

Edge infrastructure is crucial to the operations of our warfighters but deploying and managing it in austere locations can be burdensome and time-consuming. To address these challenges, organizations are turning to Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to provision and manage IT infrastructure using code and automation tools. However, current solutions do not account for the nuances of the infrastructure used by the Department of Defense (DoD) and the...

A cadre of cyber professionals tasked with maintaining national and global security operate—and sometimes suffer—silently behind their computer monitors. Suicide has become the second leading cause of death in the United States among people aged 10-34, and among the first responder population, who are under high levels of stress and operate in danger of risking life and limb, an estimated 30% suffer from depression, post-traumatic...

U.S. Special Operations Command’s (USSOCOM's) enterprise network supports more than 80,000 users and operators spanning 24 time zones across the world, making it the fourth largest network in the DoD. The IT teams that manage the network are tasked with a singular mission—connecting operators to the data, communications, devices and applications needed to achieve mission success. Any enterprise network is susceptible to internal an...

Information has always been the key to success on and off the battlefield, but that success depends on having that information available at the right place at the right time. The transition to a “digital force” has data production and consumption growing at exponential rates. During this webinar, we'll take the nuances and challenge of battlefield data management into account as we discuss practical solutions to meet tactical DataO...
