SOLUTIONS Session I
What is Operationally Feasible When Migrating
to Cloud Computing for C4I Systems?
|
Chairs:
Ms. Destiny Burns
General Dynamics
Dr. Nat Heiner
Northrop Grumman
|
Abstract
This session will examine technical and policy issues surrounding
the migration of C4I systems to a cloud environment. How does
evolving policy such as the recently published NIST 800-144 guidance
on secure cloud computing establish a road map for moving C4I systems
and services to the cloud? What are the performance concerns?

Cloud Computing in C4I Systems
|
Chair and Moderator:
Deborah Dunie
CACI International, Inc.
|
Abstract
Cloud computing is taking the commercial IT industry by storm because of
its economic and operational advantages, yet it has seen limited adoption for
C4I Missions. This panel will examine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities
and challenges of cloud computing technology for C4ISR Mission applications
and project whether, and to what extent, it will be applied in future C4I systems.

SOLUTIONS Session III
How do we Maintain Assured Command and Control
in a Cloud Environment?
|
Chairs:
Mr. Scott Winn
Tresys Technology
Mr. Bill Jones
DSA Inc.
|
Abstract
In a multi-tenant environment can we assure control at the level required
for key C4I systems? How do we "exercise" the cloud and prove it is
sufficiently hardened? When something goes wrong how do we solve problems
in a coordinated way, quickly identifying the issue within the various
layers of complexity? What unique concerns exist for disconnected/mobile
users accessing on an ad-hoc basis?
