Implementing a cloud-managed network is the solution for state and local government officials who believe their organizations lag behind the private sector in offering digital services to users. When executed properly, the cloud can help governments save money, increase security and improve citizen experiences.
Without a modern network, it’s nearly impossible for state and local governments to meet growing citizen expectations, security standards, maintenance requirements and more.
Dan Kent, Public Sector Chief Technology Officer at Cisco, explains why agencies should take a multi-layered approach to modernization.
Organizations with multiple cloud environments are repeatedly losing track of where their data resides and what walls are surrounding it.
For federal government, digital transformation is driving creation of new business models and designs, resulting in better outcomes. And intent-based networks are accelerating digital transformation for government and going beyond improving people, processes and technologies.
Outdated IT networks can’t fully reap the benefits of new technologies like mobility, cloud, social networking and big data analytics. But without those modern tools, the joint forces are limited in their ability to serve the men and women who protect our country and its citizens.
The military, like any other organization, is always evolving. This means, however, that the network that was developed for previous warfare environments and that worked decades ago doesn’t meet current needs, let alone future warfighting needs
There is truth in numbers, and the numbers show that more agencies are considering a multi-cloud approach. Luckily, Cisco’s new CASB Cloudlock can ensure a secure and cohesive multi-cloud system.
Technologists estimate that by 2020 there will be more than 30 billion connected devices in the world. Most of those tools will use a cloud application. How can the government get ready for this digital world in a secure way?
As the Department of the Navy eases its way into the cloud, prioritizing education and training for application owners and sailors must be a priority, according to one of the service’s cloud experts.
