Data
Vast quantities of data are delivering revolutionary insights to federal government agencies and decision-makers. New technologies developed in and out of the industry can help agencies shift, sift and process large amounts of data rapidly. Open-source data also helps organizations use common data sets to build new tools. Other tools help users visualize data for activities like dashboard monitoring. Data standards help the industry communicate with a common language across systems. Federal agencies also are examining ways to understand and secure data from cyber threats.
