Governing Efficiently and Effectively in a Connected Society
The Internet of Things (IoT) is here, and government organizations need a partner who can develop integrated solutions to help them thrive in a connected society.
Booz Allen has been developing solutions using connected technologies since long before the term “IoT” was coined to describe Procter & Gamble’s supply chain technology in 1999. For decades, we have helped clients solve problems using Internet-enabled devices, cyber security, and analytics. Now, more advanced, lower- cost sensor technologies and a growing ecosystem of digital devices, gateways, and networks are making IoT solutions more feasible in today’s enterprise. Booz Allen is helping clients stay at the forefront of this evolution by building and delivering solutions to solve key challenges while making IoT more tangible and less risky for our clients.
IMPROVING PUBLIC HE ALTH
The government’s role in the IoT health ecosystem has multiple dimensions—from the innovator and advocate to the regulator and payer. Regardless of the entry point, the government’s role in IoT health must set the standard for secure, interoperable, and human-centered solutions. Booz Allen is driving IoT-related solutions through connected health services for the nation’s largest healthcare system, public health
research and laboratory services for public health centers, and advanced analytics for regulatory health organizations. The firm is also building a location-aware solution to help hospitals isolate and control infec-tious diseases. Our experience enables us to take a holistic approach to connected health solutions and successfully navigate the access, integration, security, and analytics needs.
MODERNIZING THE U.S. TR ANSPORTATION SYSTEM
Connected planes, trains, and automobiles have become an integral part of the “infrastructure ecosystem”—offering utility and convenience to individuals and the public. To ensure a fast, safe and convenient transportation system in an era of
self-driving vehicles, government organizations must find ways to deliver regulations, standards, and innovations in months, not years. Booz Allen is helping government organizations and automakers think through the challenges and opportunities of connected vehicles while protecting our transportation network—and our drivers—from cyber attacks. We have also worked with agencies on transportation safety—helping to make the U.S. transportation system one of the safest in the world.

ENSURING OUR ENERGY SUPPLY
Energy is critical to every part of our society. But finding and producing energy at a national level is a complex lifecycle, with rising demand, competitive challenges, and emerging risks. Booz Allen solves the most intricate energy challenges by deriving insights from experience working with government and commercial clients and applying them to the connected ecosystem of people, operations, and devices. The result is a clear path forward to establish standards, maximize operational performance, make smarter public investments, enhance processes, and mitigate risk.

DELIVERING MOBILE SECURITY WITH DISTRICT: DEFEND
“A District is a precise region
or area with clear, defined
boundaries—where sensitive
assets can be protected,
monitored, and secured.”
Booz Allen’s District: Defend gives IT organizations automated control of enterprise mobile device behavior—such as powering on/off and enabling or disabling Wi-Fi, operating systems, and applications—based entirely on the device’s location within an area. The solution gives users the flexibility to work effectively inside a building or campus while protecting sensitive information when a device leaves the boundaries of a defined District.
“The key to success is linking IoT
solutions to existing systems, processes,
and infrastructure without disrupting
ongoing processes.”
PROTECTING NATIONAL SECURIT Y
IoT has the potential to both enhance the security of people and assets and increase the mobility of highly sensitive information. Nowhere is it more important to assure our security than the national government. The key to success is linking IoT solutions to existing systems, processes, and infrastructure without disrupting ongoing processes while finding meaning in the flood of new data and information. No one under-stands government security like Booz Allen. We support all of the major intelligence agencies, and the firm is currently a building hypervisor solution to expand enterprise mobility while protecting sensitive information.
