The remote work force is here to stay. This relatively rapid expansion of the Air and Space Force’s digital footprint comes with a growing number of infrastructure challenges and cyber security threats, requiring leaders to re-assess how networks and services are delivered. While JADC2, zero trust, artificial intelligence, and machine learning remain at the forefront of most senior leader discussions today, many of these are dependent on an aging infrastructure unable to meet the demands of our warfighters today.
