RESTON,
Va., Dec. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos
(NYSE: LDOS), a FORTUNE® 500 science and technology leader,
and Microsoft successfully demonstrated a critical step in the
realization of Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) through
demonstrations during the U.S. Army's Project Convergence 22 (PC22)
experimentation exercises. The demonstration paired Leidos Edge to
Cloud (E2C) technology with the Microsoft Azure Cloud
infrastructure to connect disparate legacy systems and new systems.
The joint solution enables the rapid fielding of advanced software,
applications, and security solutions within challenging operational
environments.
"The recent demonstration at Project Convergence 22 proves that
the JADC2 vision is attainable through collaboration with leading
defense and commercial partners," said Gerry Fasano, Defense Group President.
"Together, Microsoft and Leidos can deploy resilient,
state-of-the-art solutions quickly and safely to warfighters across
the Department of Defense."
The collaboration supports the Department of Defense's (DoD)
JADC2 strategy to synchronize digital technology across service
branches through legacy and cloud-based networks, allowing joint
forces to share data and enhance the decision-making process.
"By partnering with Leidos, we are demonstrating how commercial
capabilities in a classified cloud can enable improved situational
awareness and decision dominance for the DoD through global
connectivity, data aggregation and advanced analytics that support
decision making," said Rick Wagner,
Microsoft Federal President.
Leidos and Microsoft continue to work together with a focus on
bringing warfighting capabilities to both strategic and tactical
levels, creating architectures that enable deployment of rapid
software and security updates across cloud, on-premise, and
tactical networks—all with the goal of realizing Multi-Domain
Operations at speed and scale.
