TECHNOLOGY CAPABILITIESHTML5CDSE worked to convert Adobe Flash Coursesto HTML5, in accordance with the sunsetting ofthe Adobe Flash Player. This plan required majorcoordination across DCSA as the conversion efortimpacted the Registrar’s Ofce, developers, softwareengineers, DoD Ofce of the Chief Information Ofcer(OCIO), and technical and functional testers. Currently,CDSE has converted almost all of the initially identifedproducts, placing CDSE ahead of schedule by a yearand a half.According to the DoD OCIO, through the AdvancedDistributed Learning Research Center study ofeLearning products across all components andagencies, CDSE was among the few agencies that hadinstituted a plan to be completed with all conversionsby the end of the calendar year 2019. This conversionefort is critical to the security community to ensurethe accessibility of security training for all of DoD andIndustry.STEPP INCREASES USERSWITH NEW PLATFORMOn October 1, 2018, CDSE migrated STEPP from anagency hosted site to a new platform. To facilitatethis, CDSE partnered with the Ofce of PersonnelManagement (OPM) USA Learning Program Ofce tomigrate over 200,000 student accounts to the OPMUSA Learning environment in a FedRAMP certifedcloud environment.By the end of FY19, the new STEPP environment haddoubled the amount of students to 403,000 studentaccounts. Additionally, with the increase in mission,STEPP was able to support the migration of the OPMNational Background Investigation Bureau and theDoD Central Adjudication civilians to DCSA. Thismission success was a great end to the fscal year anda strong start to the next one.112,519Security Shorts Accessed18 2019 Year End Report536,874Toolkits Accessed
