Department of Defense Synchronization and Coordination via Joint Information Environment
Abstract
The United States has endured a turbulent period, one dominated by the 9/11 attacks. America must continue to prepare for these malicious attempts as these actors attempt to disrupt, destroy, and attack the networks and communication systems that enable the DoD to control systems. The very technologies that empower us also empower our adversaries and diminish our ability to respond to natural disaster and military contingencies. The U.S. needs for networks that are secure, trustworthy, and resilient that enables an information sharing environment. To mitigate the lack of an information sharing environment, it is essential that the Department of Defense (DoD) develop dependable, trustworthy and resilient networks, while improving response to cyber incidents, and enhancing operability, interoperability and synergy across all domains. The DoD has realized that the application of technology will enable all stakeholders the ability to share, synchronize, and collaborate information while enhancing mission performance and execution. Hence, the need for a Joint Information Environment (JIE) that will leverage the use of new technologies, to improve operational effectiveness, cost-efficiency, and security.
