Eng. Introduction: The Command and Management Information Systems (CMIS) Division strives towards Information Excellence through information advantage, information and communication technologies (ICT) security and ensuring digital sovereignty in the Department of Defence (DOD). The goal above is achieved through the reliance on universities and research institutes for discovering and developing the latest knowledge, methods and techniques, and the ICT industry to provide effective and economical ICT goods and services to the DOD. This support will enable the CMIS Division to optimise the current ICT systems and modernise the new ICT systems for DOD, by maximising the output with limited resources using the Pareto Principle. This can only be achieved through the cooperation between the CMIS Division, academia, research institutes and the ICT industry to contribute to the overall achievement of Information Excellence, i.e., the right information, to the right user, in the right format, at the right time and at the right place. ICT is the nerve system of any organisation. In the current Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), the CMIS Division cannot deliver an effective ICT capability to the DOD without the relationship and support of universities, research institutes and industry. MICSSA is an opportunity to explore and enhance these relationships. The CMIS Division hosted the ninth Military Information and Communications Symposium of South Africa (MICSSA) on behalf of the DOD with the conference over the period 22 to 24 August 2023.FulltextenCommand and Management Information Systems DivisionCMIS DIVInformation and Communication TechnologiesICTDepartment of DefenceDODProceedings of the 9th Military Information and Communication Symposium of South Africa (MICSSA 2023), CSIR International Convention Centre, Pretoria, South Africa, 20 - 25 August 2023BookErasmus, L.
