The information service sector is often referred to as the computer network which, thanks to its widespread use in most economic sectors is the largest component of the overall system budget. However, data systems, with their large size and complexity at an ever increasing scale, require increased resource and capital investment and they must be optimized for continued success. This paper, explains the various types of information systems such as:
Types of Information Systems:
Ancillary Services
Operations and Maintenance

Information Systems: The CICAT is the top service industry standard for information services and provides its main component security in many major military, civilian and government agencies. CICAT has several advantages and disadvantages. The CICAT covers three important characteristics: it covers the critical information systems including: Information Management software, data management systems, IT security, and Data Protection. CICAT’s core service information is the following:
Critical Information
Management systems information,
Physical Security,
Medical Support.
CISAT also gives a technical and financial overview of its service features, in this article I will provide detailed information about each technology and it is of critical importance for the security or maintenance of the information systems.
Types of Information Systems: The CIT has the following basic elements:

Table of ContentsABSTRACTSTRATEGIC USE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGYStrategic DeploymentEconomic ImpactRecommendationsCONCLUSIONStrategic Use of Information TechnologyFirst I need to explain the overall concept or in military terms mission of MEPS (Military Entrance Processing Stations), then I will cover how the current economic trends in this society have affected business at the MEPS and finally I will give some personal recommendations that if added, could make the processing flow more smoothly. There are sixty five MEPS throughout the country to include Puerto Rico, Alaska and Hawaii, all of which fall under the authority of USMEPCOM. Each MEPS consist of sections, each with their own specific tasks: Processing, Medical, Testing, Headquarters section and Liaisons who perform services specific to each branch of the military (Army, Navy, Army National Guard, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard). There are managers for each section in each MEPS, some civilian and others military members. I am the manager in charge of the processing section.
My current position in the Army has me overseeing the process of finding a place for qualified individuals in the military. With the numerous events that have occurred over the last decade and the development of Homeland Security our job is not just to process applicants and put them into the military but also to ensure that these future soldiers are of sound mind and body and do not present any further risk to our country. The use of technology through this process, from fingerprinting to background checks, is essential for us to complete the mission at hand.
Strategic DeploymentI will cover the different types of technology used in the MEPS information systems by briefly describing a day in the life of a MEPS applicant. When applicants first arrive at the building they have to be enrolled into our system called e-security. E-security is an internet based system that is linked throughout the MEPS, so once enrolled into e-security an applicant can be pulled up by any other MEPS. E-security is a biometrics system that uses fingerprint pads for fingerprint analysis and cameras with facial recognition software. Access into e-security and the different sections within it are also password protected, so access is dependent on the section that each employee works in and each transaction completed is tracked by each employees last name and the last four of their SSN.
Once enrollment into e-security is complete, applicants go through a thorough physical exam, in which all medical results are stored in a medical record that is kept in locked filing cabinets with limited access and in e-security. Once the physical is complete, applicants who have not taken the ASVAB (Armed Service Vocational Aptitude Battery) either in school or at a remote site, will take it on the internet based computers in the testing section.
Now that applicants are physically and intellectually qualified, its time for the service liaisons to find a specific job for each applicant based on their desires, the results from the physical and the ASVAB. This is all done on branch specific software that is linked to e-security. The
