Verizon Business will provide network and data services at U.S. Department of Defense installations around the world under a new contract awarded by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).
Forbes said the DTS-P II network, part of the Defense Information System Network (DISN), was managed by Verizon Business round-the-clock, 365 days a year, and supported many aspects of the military operations around the globe and other authorised defense department requirements.
“As a long-time communications provider for defense agencies, we have seen the government’s demands for advanced, network-centric communications evolve, and we look forward to helping military installations remain on the cutting edge of the latest technology.
“As the leading provider of communications to the federal government, we have unmatched experience helping the U.S. military meet its missions around the globe.”
Forbes said Verizon Business was the largest provider of communications services to the US federal government and one of the largest providers of advanced communications and information technology services globally.
Think again. Most businesses only have PART of a DR plan - and this spells business disaster in the event of an IT disaster.
