Organization Profile
The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is a Combat Support Agency comprised of 16,000 people – military, federal, civilian, and contract partners. DISA provides the network, computing infrastructure, and enterprise services to support information sharing and decision making no matter where the information is located or sourced. DISA facilitates the use of Real-Time Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance information to enable information exchange between the producer and the warfighter. DISA’s main goal is to produce a seamless exchange of information that can be consumed anywhere on secure networks globally.
The Challenge
DISA needed a secure real-time dashboard solution for presenting situational information from hundreds of disparate services to commanders on secure US DoD networks.
The challenge of aggregating disparate data sources across NIPRnet, SIPRnet and JWICS required an extensive manual effort of gathering volumes of information from various departments and entities with varying security models. DISA needed a way to support senior decision-makers during events of national significance with a rapid situational awareness solution.
The JackBe Solution
The Defense Information Systems Agency selected JackBe’s Presto, in conjunction with existing GOTS infrastructure, to create a secure dashboard solution supporting various mission threads and operational needs. The National Senior Leadership Decision Support Service (NSLDSS) is the vision for senior leaders and watch officers in the COCOMS and the Joint Staff to have real-time situational awareness directly tying into authoritative data and systems available across the various security domains that exist within the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community.
The goal of NSLDSS was to create an on demand environment using Web 2.0 standards and practices to allow it to be: portable, centralized, and following the very stringent governance policies of the data enclave.
Benefits
Presto’s real-time dashboards gave the Defense Information Systems Agency on-demand situational awareness. The solution resulted in:
- Optimization of Net Centric Enterprise Services as well as other enterprise capabilities recently released
- Extendible and modernized Web 2.0 situational awareness environment for all agencies to leverage within the Department of Defense
- Reduced development time by connecting to live authoritative systems and displaying visualizations in real-time
- Improved military response times to mission critical events of national significance
