Information technologies (IT) – including networking, computing, and software – comprise the most broadly transformative suite of technologies ever invented. American innovations in these fields since the late 1960s have led the world into a new technological era and opened countless practical capabilities and opportunities on which the security and prosperity of the United States today depend. Also vital to the Nation’s prosperity and security are IT advancements that mitigate potential risks posed by adversarial breaches of the country’s increasingly interwoven IT-based operations.

Information technology (IT) is perhaps the most broadly transformative technology ever invented, with impacts on defense, security, energy, healthcare, and more. Innovation in IT continually enables pivotal new applications that advance U.S. national priorities and Federal agency missions. For 27 years, the Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) Program has been the Nation’s primary source of federally funded research and development (R&D) on networking and information technology. The Program maximizes coordination of Federal IT R&D to optimize Federal investments that support agency missions and contribute to the public good.
