1 min read


ITphotoThe Office of the Director of National Intelligence has implemented initial technology guidelines for the intelligence community with the goal of standardizing the information technology infrastructure across all agencies, Federal News Radio reported Tuesday.

Jason Miller writes the baseline technologies come under ODNI’s Intelligence Community IT Enterprise program, which aims to control access to network and data, as well as centralize the IT system for 17 intelligence agencies at the top secret, sensitive compartmented information level.

Al Tarasiuk, assistant DNI and intelligence community chief information officer, told reporters in McLean, Va., the IC deployed in August cloud capabilities and standard desktops to several Defense Intelligence Agency and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency users, the station reports.

Tarasiuk says IC employees with TS-SCI clearance can access the cloud infrastructure and the applications hub, according to the report.

He says the IC also launched enterprise management services and cybersecurity measures.

“What we will do in our IC cloud infrastructure, which will be provided by both CIA and the National Security Agency, is to implement those standards and then make sure those data sets have the right kind of tagging in there,” Tarasiuk told reporters.

Tarasiuk says that by 2018 he hopes a majority of the IC employees will begin using those capabilities in order to enhance information sharing security, Federal News Radio reports.
