The Defense Information Systems Agency is taking an interesting approach as it transitions from its former role as the sole broker for the DoD commercial cloud market and into something more like a cloud sherpa for the rest of the military.
A few days ago, DISA released what it termed a “best practices guide” for DoD cloud mission owners. Its appearance on the agency’s information assurance website is notable in that it’s a serious departure from the prescriptive security-related documents usually published there, a fact reinforced by the big red letters and bold fonts in the first few pages of the guide emphasizing that its content is NOT to be interpreted as official DoD policy, mentions of particular vendors are not endorsements of their services, etc.
