DISA Strategic Plan

The Defense Information Systems Agency this week released its 2013-2018 strategic plan. In the document's foreword, Air Force Lt. Gen. Ronnie Hawkins, the agency's director, writes:

DISA will support the Department's priority to rebalance our communications and services in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as "Operate Effectively in Cyberspace," and will play a critical role in the Department's efforts to provide modern armed forces with reliable information and communications networks and assured access to the cyber domain. DISA is a Combat Support Agency, and our number one priority is enabling information superiority for the Warfighter. We know we cannot obtain information superiority on our own, but we are proud of the capabilities we bring forward to enable the DoD to reach their goals.

Hawkins writes that he intends to focus his initial efforts on:

Global Defense Posture

Cyber Command and Control (C2)

Nuclear Command, Control,

and Communications (NC3)

Joint Information Environment

DoD Cloud Services

Mobility

Acquisition Agility
