  1. Chief Information Officer Group BRANCH Division Defence Architecture Framework Session 3 – What are the benefits?

  2. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 Objectives • Understand the problems EA seeks to remove • Identify the benefits from the EA approach

  3. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 Discussion Point - What sort of problems does EA help solve? • Scope and size of problem • Nature of problem (application) • Complexity of the problem space • Complexity of the solution space • Time limits on making decisions • Requirements for information superiority

  4. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 Facing a new reality • In the new era of competition, opportunities and threats abound. • The merging of computing, telecommunications, publishing, and entertainment industries, as well as the pervasiveness of the Internet and other vehicles for electronic commerce, present strategic opportunities and threats for every firm. (p. 5) • Weill, P. & Broadbent, M., (1998), Leveraging the New Infrastructure: How Market Leaders Capitalize on Information Technology, Harvard Business School Press.

  7. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 Chief of the Defence Force • “We are living in very uncertain times. Our Defence Organization, and the Defence Force in particular, must be agile enough to adjust to the ever-increasing and diverse demands of the future.” (page iii) • P.J. Cosgrove AC, MC, (2004), Enabling Future Warfighting: Network Centric Warfare Concept, ADDP-D.3.1

  8. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3

  9. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 Network Centric Warfare • "The NCW concept is another step towards addressing the challenges and uncertainty of the future operating environment." (page iii) • "The NCW concept provides a foundation for joint, single-Service and multi-national experimentation" (page iii) P.J.

  10. Defence Architecture Framework – Session 3 • Future Directions. The future direction of information protection must be governed by an Information Security Architecture that is an integral component of a Defence-wide Information Enterprise Architecture. • This architecture details overall systems design by establishing clear principles for access control, data management and accountabilities. • Page 12
