One of the Army’s key objectives is to bring reliable network access to smaller units at the company level and below. But DoD’s Office of Operational Test and Evaluation found the task has been complicated by the fact that too many of the systems the service is fielding are not exactly plug-and-play.

The Pentagon’s operational testing and evaluation office says “red teams” are spread too thin to test DoD networks against real-world threats.
