HEADNOTEDirectives on securing agency networks have pushed compliance from 26 percent to 70 percent in three years.
BY KAREN D. SCHWARTZ

Between the zooz E-Government Act and the President's Management Agenda, and the relentless quarterly evaluations by the Office of Management and Budget, no agency is immune to the constant quest for more effective network security.

Consider, for example, the Federal Technology Service's Networx or the Homeland security, Justice and Treasury departments' joint Integrated Wireless Network.
