The Opportunity:
A well-designed network is critical to move data and enable the U.S. government to achieve their mission, but how can an organization make sure their network will fit their current and evolving needs?

This is your chance to support your team with growing their knowledge base within depth network security expertise while broadening the scope of your network engineering work.
