The Department of the Air Force has advanced the cloud modernization initiative of the Department of Defense by leading the authorization of Oracle Fusion software-as-a-service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Gen 2 at Impact Level 4.
Cloud Modernization With Enhanced Security
The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center said Thursday the Defense Information Systems Agency granted Provisional Authorization for the Oracle Fusion SaaS on Feb. 6. The new DISA PA allows the platform to operate under the latest security framework and provides DOD with more secure cloud options for its operations. The achievement was facilitated by DISA, Oracle and the Business and Enterprise Systems Directorate’s Human Resources division, or GBH.
Oracle was steered by GBH through each stage of the Boundary Cloud Access Point process. GBH advocated for its inclusion in the BCAP and helped it navigate the authorization process through proper management of timelines, documentation and action items. Furthermore, the BESD division provided essential DOD context to meet DISA requirements and DAF mission needs. Lastly, GBH ensures continuous compliance with security requirements by managing the authority to operate.
DAF is trying to open new opportunities for modernizing human capital management systems by providing secure access to the Oracle Fusion SaaS on OCI Gen 2.
