Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Information Assurance
“At DISA, we believe that information is the greatest source of military power. It is imperative that our warfighters have the information they need, when they need it. Our duty is to ensure that information is accessible to the joint forces, while protecting the network—and the information on it—from being accessed by our adversaries. In order to achieve mission assurance and promote safe information sharing, DISA: makes data ubiquitously accessible while simultaneously restricting access, promotes the safe sharing of information, and prevents attacks by having network protections in place.”
