SafeGov.org provides answers for cloud implementation

Karen Evans, former e-gov administrator, discusses the website she launched to provide a forum on cloud computing in government.

The government’s cloud-first initiative is driving a lot of the discussion about IT in the federal government. IT and industry experts are offering answers to your cloud questions through industry-run SafeGov.org.

Karen Evans, former e-gov administrator and is involved in the website, told In Depth with Francis Rose that most agencies know “at the 50,000 foot level” that the cloud will save money.

However, at the “granular level of implementation,” agencies are looking for more specific answers, she said.
