DOD issues directive to define CIO role


The Defense Department on April 22 issued a new directive outlining the roles and responsibilities of the Pentagon’s chief information officer, updating nearly decade-old governance to include some of DOD’s most pressing concerns.

Perhaps most notable in DOD directive 5044.2 is the specific injection of cybersecurity, a phrase that does not appear in the directive’s previous iteration, issued in 2005.
