Track D-2: Cross Domain Solutions Transforming the Army's Approach to MILCON

The costs to install, modernize and upgrade IT infrastructure consumes a large portion of DOD MILCON OPA/INFOSYS facility construction and modernization program budgets. These costs are compounded in cases where missions require multiple, separate classification networks. The costs of space, power, cooling and appropriately separated and shielded wiring alone drive significant portions of military construction, or MILCON, projects.

Learn more about NSA’s Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) program and hear how the U.S. Army’s CCDC Aviation & Missile Center and 501st MI commands leveraged MILCON opportunities to rethink their approach to multilevel, multi-network access with Forcepoint’s Trusted Thin Client and Trusted Thin Client Remote with CSfC.
