But the IG could identify only a &#8220;limited number if cloud computing services contracts&#8221; because of the lack of a definition as well as an integrated repository with detailed cloud contract data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;DoD cannot determine whether it achieves actual cost savings or benefits from adopting cloud-computing services,&#8221; a Dec. 28 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dodig.mil\/pubs\/report_summary.cfm?id=6751\" title=\"http:\/\/www.dodig.mil\/pubs\/report_summary.cfm?id=6751\">audit report<\/a> states. &#8220;In addition, without knowing what data DoD components place on the cloud, DoD may not effectively identify and monitor cloud computing security risks.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But officials within the Office of the DoD CIO, the organization at the center of the report, disagreed that cloud definitions are unclear &#8212; noting DoD CIO&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/story\/military-tech\/it\/2015\/01\/30\/pentagon-finessing-cloud-approach\/22604793\/\" title=\"http:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/story\/military-tech\/it\/2015\/01\/30\/pentagon-finessing-cloud-approach\/22604793\/\">security guidance<\/a> issued earlier this year &#8212; and said there is a central tracking system for cloud contracts and budgeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Earlier this year, the DoD CIO published the DoD Computing Security Requirements Guide. This guidance established a standard definition of cloud computing along with the requirements and processes for assessing cloud computing security risks,&#8221; Deputy DoD CIO Dave DeVries wrote in response to the IG report. Furthermore, &#8220;the DoD CIO implemented enhancements to the department&#8217;s Select and Native Programming Data Input System for Information Technology (SNaP-IT) to account for the department&#8217;s cloud budget and to collect information on DoD cloud contracts. These enhancements enable improved cloud budget reporting by capturing additional details on DoD cloud investments and associated cloud contracts.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IG, however, did not appear to agree that the measures outlined by DeVries suffice. Auditors pointed out areas of the report&#8217;s recommendations where the Office of the CIO did not respond, requesting that officials from the office respond with additional details by Jan. 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Implementing cloud broadly across DoD and, in particular, saving money by executing cost-benefit analyses are specific areas of emphasis DoD CIO Terry Halvorsen has championed in his tenure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I&#8217;d like us to be further on in the cloud, because I do think it offers us some chances to improve mission, improve capability and in some cases, improve security while reducing the cost,&#8221; Halvorsen said in a September call with reporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a DoD CIO spokesperson, DoD spent nearly $800 million on cloud services in 2015, and expects roughly the same figure for 2016, as reported to the Office of Management and Budget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DoD isn&#8217;t keeping a close enough eye on its cloud efforts, according to the Pentagon inspector
