A definitive 'no.' As a soldier working in networking, I can guarantee that the Army's understanding of security, our equipment, and most specifically our training are approaching a decade behind the enterprise world, for a number of reasons. The most prominent is that soldiers not only aren't adequately trained to operate even a minimalist network to modern standards, most have no desire or opportunity to improve the state of things.

The 'operators,' those setting up equipment, are all junior enlisted, and are saddled with normal 'soldiering' stuff as priority over any training in networking or administration. The 'management' has to fight other branches and levels of management to get anything done at all, and has to rely on those soldiers who make time to improve their skills enough to be competent at lower levels. And at the echelons above reality, nobody seems to have a clue as to the fundamentals of making devices talk.

The conflicts in the Middle East have been indicative of our pondwater-speed capabilities, and the direction my corps is moving is not set to improve the situation. One thing to remember, the only requirement to get my job in the Army is a relatively high score on the entrance exam, notorious for having abysmal standards. Many, if not most, soldiers in my corps have never considered working in IT of any sort. Keep that in mind when discussing our capabilites.
