Before taking the CIO work, Goodwine filled in as head of big business data innovation under Knausenberger. Flying corps IT has been going through a progress as of late, with plans to rethink fundamental IT errands across the whole undertaking to a project worker — named “Venture IT as a Help” or EITaaS.
Administration authorities have guaranteed EITaaS will set aside cash and give quicker network, while opening up digital and data centered Aviators from everyday IT errands to zero in on warfighting missions.
Slow organizations across the division have for some time been a wellspring of dissatisfaction for Pilots and Gatekeepers, and Knausenberger herself recognized the issue in 2022, saying the division must “make large, striking capital interests in IT to drive the tech and cycle modernization we really want to contend.”
Both Knausenberger and Space Power Boss Data and Innovation Official Lisa Costa have likewise noticed the issue of “tech obligation” — the division’s IT is obsolete to the point that attempting to fix everything would be costly, to not express anything of redesigning it.

What’s more, organizations — you must have the option to go anyplace to anyplace. You must have programming that makes it simple for a warfighter to decipher that image and to go with a choice.”
Presently it will ultimately depend on Goodwine to assist with acknowledging such a dream. Simultaneously, she’ll lead the DAF network protection endeavors. Most unmistakably, office pioneers desire to execute “zero trust” — a methodology that requires all clients in and outside an organization to be constantly validated and approved to get to frameworks — by 2027. In February, the division delivered a “guide” for arriving at zero trust, which it refreshed in July.
