Budget Trajectory
The program's 3 summary figures for FY24 to FY26, plotted in fiscal-year order so the direction of travel is readable at a glance: this line ends level with where it starts. The points are the summary cards above, not a separate derivation; the table beside the chart carries each figure with its own citation.

One fiscal year of this program as published: a line through the actuals (filled dots), with the enacted (hollow circles) and request (diamonds) markers each edition reported. Read it for direction, not for precision — this program's actuals line is too short to show a direction. The grid below is the same data as text, one cited figure per cell.

Description

Mission Next Generation Information Communications Technology (5G)

5G is the 5th generation mobile network. 5G wireless technology is meant to deliver higher multi-Gbps peak data speeds, ultra-low latency, more reliability, massive network capacity, increased availability, and a more uniform user experience to more users. 5G is a unified, more capable air interface. It has been designed with an extended capacity empower new deployment models and deliver new services. With high speeds, superior reliability and negligible latency, 5G will expand the mobile ecosystem into new realms. NDAA FY21 § 224 and FY23 § 221 & 234 mandates Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) to develop a capability for continuous independent monitoring of non-commercial government-transiting packet streams for 5G data on frequencies assigned to the Department to validate the availability, confidentiality, and integrity of the Department’s communications systems. Development of Training Materials are required for DoD 5G networks not tied to the Defense Information Systems Network (DISN).

Justification

Accomplishments & Planned Programs (1)

5G Technology

DISA will provide a Continuous Monitoring effort for Private Networks connected to DISN. Requirements include the prototype HW/SW for the management and onsite equipment as well as installation and integration work to interface with existing security solutions. DISA Solution requires Private Networks to have an Authority to Operate (ATO) and be connected to DISN. The four Private Networks targeted sites are Albany, Nellis, Whidbey, and Norfolk. Develop and implement a comprehensive 5G Continuous Monitoring (CM) solution, including training materials and training for DoD Cybersecurity Service Providers (CSSPs), to enhance the security posture of all DoD 5G networks, whether connected to the Defense Information Systems Network (DISN) or not, and ensure compliance with relevant National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) requirements.​

Awards

No awards are linked to this program element at high confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.

Oversight

Department-level designation (not specific to this program)

GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Next Generation Information Communications Technology (5G) — no program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.

No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,741 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
