Successful warfighting operations depend on key decision makers having the right information鈥攁nytime and anywhere. Cloud networks and digital technology offer great potential for making this happen, but siloed networks, cumbersome data classification standards, and incompatible information-sharing policies among allies and coalition partners create challenges for instantaneous data sharing.聽

Mariel Cooley, a newly hired 有料盒子APP vice president, focuses her work on addressing these challenges, specifically as they pertain to building coalitions with mission partners and allies.聽

In her new role, she seeks to create a seamless, data-centric, secure information-sharing ecosystem between the U.S. and its allies and mission partners across warfighting domains for the Department of Defense (DOD): a next-generation Mission Partner Environment (MPE).听听听听

Across a three-decade career in senior positions supporting federal, defense, and intelligence clients, Cooley has enabled joint command, control, computers, communications, and intelligence (C4I) and mission partner integration and expansion, furthered military satellite capabilities, managed the entire lifecycle of an offensive cyber operations program, and more.听听

At 有料盒子APP, Cooley has the opportunity to bring her vision for connecting mission partners and DOD forces to fruition, while supporting 有料盒子APP鈥檚 defense solutions development.聽

Below, Cooley shares that vision.聽

To understand how important effective mission partner communication, collaboration, and information sharing is, think about disaster response after a hurricane. You need to locate missing people and damaged infrastructure right away. But that鈥檚 difficult to do when first responders, geospatial agencies (government and commercial), military teams, local governments, and others have their own systems and no way to easily share the information they have with each other.聽

The same scenario exists in the defense space: Data systems are siloed, sharing insights among services is complicated, and sharing and receiving data among coalition partners adds further risk and complexity. Currently, there's a network-centric construct. The U.S. military has, along with mission partners, more than 55+ different IT systems, each with their own separate networks and workflows.听听

These stovepipes act as 鈥渄ata jails,鈥� requiring a human in the loop to free information from one place and share it appropriately. This workflow sometimes takes up to 4 hours for a human to share appropriately.听听

With this construct, how can they deliver a common operating picture across the entire force鈥攂oth the U.S. military and its allies and partners鈥攚hile keeping data secure? The answer lies in an innovative, connected, and secure framework for mission partner collaboration.聽

As a leader in the defense industry, I feel we鈥檙e聽in a particularly exciting position to make investments that further the DOD鈥檚 initiatives and address these challenges, focusing first on a data-centric approach to alleviate the strain on the human enterprise.听听

We鈥檙e supporting the implementation of secure, unified data fabrics on cloud-native networks, and, at the same time, developing strategy, technical solutions, and customer engagement for command and control (C2) software and systems.聽
