Nextgov: Federal CIO Says New IT Modernization Plan In the Works
Reposted from NextGov
The Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer and Federal CIO Council have started work on a new governmentwide IT modernization strategy to replace the IT Modernization Plan put in place under the Trump administration, President Joe Biden’s top IT leader said Wednesday.
When it comes to IT, the Biden administration has not been shy about rolling out cybersecurity directives, as major breaches and security incidents continue to crop up. But there has been little guidance related to IT delivery produced during the first months of the new presidency.
That is likely to change sooner than later, according to Clare Martorana, who was appointed in March as the administration’s first federal chief information officer.
“As a matter of fact, we kicked something off with the CIO Council last week,” Martorana said Wednesday during a keynote hosted by AFFIRM.
