- U.S. Army Network Technical Exchange Meeting 8: Data Centric Operations with Capability Set 25/27 ANNOUNCEMENT: The Army�s Network-Cross Functional Team, in collaboration with Program Executive Office C3T, will host a network-related technical exchange meeting (TEM)� on May 9 and 10, 2022 in Philadelphia, PA, to discuss Capability Set 25/27 development efforts and focus areas. User experiences and current operational environments have shown that capability set efforts should be transport agnostic, data centric and offer security architecture approaches and standards to provide interoperability, data accessibility and identity management. As the Army shifts to a Division centric unit of action environment, capability sets will take into account data and connectivity needs at Division level and supporting elements. Capability Set 25 (CS25) will build upon Capability Set 21 and 23 and focus on automation and network resiliency/protection. CS25 will introduce CMOSS capability, enhanced network security including Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM), Air Tier (air to ground) networking and Command Post Computing Environment Data Fabric and cloud enabled capability. TOPICS: TEM 8 will be structured to focus both on helping industry shape R&D efforts to better align with Capability Set 25 and 27 design themes and offering white paper opportunities for 6.4 funded technology needs. Topical focus areas of this event will include: Division level, Special Operations and MDTF formation user feedback discussions; experimentation strategy forecast; standards implementation including updated CMOSS roadmap and opportunities; detailed update on command post modernization (CPI2) program; network security and resilience topic panels and opportunities.
