The Cloud Services Division designs, builds, secures, operates and continuously enhances the cARMY common shared services provided as a service to the U.S. Army and the DoD. These common services are established to support Impact Levels 2, 4, 5 and 6 today within Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. Additionally, the Cloud Services Division establishes and maintains the set of access and border security services for the cARMY environment, including the Virtual Data Security Stack and the availability of cARMY user access to the environments through the Cloud Access Points.

Common Shared Services for cARMY enable applications to function in the hosting environment and are centrally managed by the ECMA. Providing centralized Common Shared Services reduces costs and reduces barriers to cloud adoption by preparing the environment for all applications. The ECMA presently delivers 31 Common Shared Services in cARMY and will update and modify these as Army needs dictate.

The Cloud Cybersecurity Division (C2D) enables digital overmatch by accelerating the Army’s transition to cloud technologies, with a focus on cybersecurity policy, in support of the Army Modernization Strategy. C2D provides decision makers with risk-informed policy and recommendations by modernizing the cybersecurity authorization process and decreasing time to field cloud-based solutions through the execution of a lean risk management process.

Key tasks include modernizing ATO processes to capitalize on cloud-enabled DevSecOps practices, aligning cybersecurity policy to strategic guidance, Congressional requirements, and establishing compliance reporting for all Army cloud environments.

Resource Management is the financial operations, external communications, business processes, acquisition efforts for the Enterprise Cloud Management Agency. These efforts are focused on ensuring the required vendor services are available via contracts awarded based on focused acquisition efforts, ensuring business processes are defined across stakeholders—with automated workflows in defined systems—to allow ECMA to effectively meet customers’ needs in each phase of the customer’s journey.

ECMA ensures concise, informative, and educational communications are provided to all Army audiences, and has an overall technical architecture allowing all aspects of the cARMY environment to function effectively.
