When U.S. federal agencies need to deploy a new software application or information system, they must first ensure it complies with a comprehensive set of government-approved security standards — and ultimately get a signed ATO or Authorization to Operate. That process can be cumbersome and makes it hard to introduce agile, or more frequent, software upgrades.

As a government agency's modernization journey evolves, network-as-a-service (NaaS) can enhance their ability to adopt new technologies. It’s essentially a platform that provides secure network resources and a cloud consumption model for an agency over time. It reduces the cost of connectivity and infrastructure and provides scalability and flexibility—including security, automation and visibility across the network platform, according to Verizon Director of Domain Specialists Ray Bauer.
“[NaaS] is a business model and enables digital evolution at scale,” he says. “It connects users to their application and the services they want—from IoT devices to network edge compute services. And it provides a scalable model for provisioning and budgeting for agencies, making it easy for them to transform,” he adds.

Moving from legacy to modernized platforms has been challenging for agencies across the government. But three new awards totaling $36 million from GSA’s Technology Modernization Fund promise to ease legacy IT issues for the U.S. Army, the Office of Personnel Management and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, according to a chief technology official at Leidos.
“We see a journey, a journey of maturation and a journey of conversion,” says Leidos' Sandra Lopez. “It's very hard to consume the services and go from one mode of operation to another. It requires a cultural change—a cultural change in the contracting as well as in the consumption side."

Responding to cybersecurity threats for much of the past 30 years, says former Navy CIO Rob Carey, invariably meant managing a combination of firewall, intrusion detection and identity management tools — and a growing array of data.
The problem, says Carey, is that “the tools we use in cyber today…are not necessarily big data platforms that can deal with petabytes at a time, or even more, and still be effective.”

Fewer than 10 percent of federal employees are under 30 years old, and at some agencies, more than half of the employees are eligible to retire. In a recent Daily Scoop Podcast, Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies (WAEPA) CEO Shane Canfield discusses the changing composition of the workforce and what federal agencies are doing to hire and retain talent.
Canfield highlights the importance of the workforce having a global and holistic view of the agency or department. “[For example] at the Geospatial Intelligence Agency, the younger employees are assigned one project which works its way through the entire agency top to bottom; this gives people a lens into what happens at all levels of the federal government because not every single job has the same responsibility, the same opportunity to really drive decisions and direction. That is tremendously important.”
