This document was submitted to the Joint Requirements Council (JRC), adjudicated and awaiting validation. Additionally, Troy has been the Action Officer/Representative for CBP on activities to technically and operationally demonstrate Integrated Maritime Domain Enterprise - Operations and Intelligence Data Node system capabilities in Air and Marine Operations Center (AMOC)’s Air and Marine Operations Surveillance System (AMOSS).

In November 2013 the Department of the Navy (DON) Chief Information Officer (CIO) issued a memorandum of distribution titled, Department of the Navy Information Management/Information Technology/Cyberspace Strategic Objectives for Fiscal Years 2014 – 2018. This brief three page document lays out six objectives for a strategic plan for the Navy’s IM, IT, and Cyberspace interests. My paper will look at two of those objectives, reduce software application spending by 40 percent from FY13 levels and improve transparency, accountability and execution of IM/IT investments on the strategic planning and operation of the Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) environment at Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City

This security profile of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is based on two documents of public record. The first is the published VA Handbook 6500 (VAH 6500) which defined policy and procedures for systems within the purview of the VA (Department of Veterans Affairs, 2007). The second document is the Federal Information Security Management Act Assessment for FY 20011 commissioned by the VA Office of Inspector General (OIG) and performed by Ernst & Young in accordance with Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) guidelines (VA Office of Inspector General, 2012, p. i).

The Department of Defense is one of the oldest executive departments of the executive branches in the United States of America and is in control of national security and the Armed Forces of the United States. More than 3 million employees embody the Department of Defense and control it’s day-to-day operations and is well funded with a budget of $680 billion thanks to a bill that passed 68-29 in 2010 . Under the Secretary of Defense there is a very powerful Chief Information Officer of the Department of Defense, Teri Takai. Teri is responsible for developing strategic plans and to align with the department’s mission and the mission of the United States. The CIO of the Department of Defense interested me because of the decisions having to be made affect so many users. Every decision Teri makes has to be spot on and has to take in consideration, how it will hurt or benefit other departments or national security. The goal of the CIO is to unify the information management and to advance the technology vision of the department.

The tactical infrastructure is leveraging these new communications capabilities to move data throughout all levels of the mission space. The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol being used to move data throughout the Army 's

Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have become a quickly growing part of the aviation community over the last five to ten years. More and more of these aircraft are flying in the National Airspace System (NAS) with each passing year, without any set rules governing their operation. With the growing population of UAS in the NAS, for military, civil, and commercial use, the need for regulation is becoming increasingly obvious. How to regulate this type of aircraft is no simple task. Taking into consideration the many factors of these aircraft such as size, purpose, who is using them, and location of use, it is difficult to determine what regulation is required. That is the task that has been set before the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). To determine what type of regulation is needed to integrate and ensure the safe operation of UAS in the NAS since the skies that they share are shared with manned aircraft.

The primary performance measures are related to student achievement based on standardized tests. Still, as with any organization today, cyberspace support plays an important part in reaching the strategic goals which include organization excellence and outreach. The IT division supports the DoDEA goals by “delivering reliable, secure, high-performing and cost-effective networks and services to our students, teachers and staff.” (CSP, 2013) The IT division is comprised of five branches: CIO-Enterprise Architecture, System Development, HQ Operations & Customer Support, Information Resources, and Information Assurance.

On 22 January 2013, General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff released a white paper describing his vision for the Joint Information Environment (JIE) and how it would support operations in the years to come.1 This mandated transition is driving a reassessment of the most appropriate command and control (C2) structure to conduct operations within the domain. Attempts to achieve a standardized fully interoperable environment will only achieve limited success due to the innate variability and changing nature of technology, exacerbated by service unique capabilities and requirements as well as inconsistent funding. Existing C2 models either fail to address the uniqueness of operations in the cyber domain or otherwise fail to

We also need to invest in the future to ensure continued development and improvement of the war fighter’s mobilization electronic operating systems while continuously conducting relevant high quality training. These mobilization technology systems must support our current complex and evolving operating environment. Additionally, it is imperative that we identify duplicate systems and work towards the migration and/or elimination of unnecessary redundancies.

Between the time initial MRAP tests were conducted and the initial approval in 2006, the military was transitioning away from the original Requirements Generation System (RGS) to the current JCIDS. Requirements from the field through each service branch drove the RGS process resulting in standalone solutions to specific threats often not considering non-material alternatives. “JCIDS provides systematic, integrated and interoperable material and non-material solutions to capability needs.” JCIDS determines requirements from the top and develops joint solutions with long term sustainment plans. The JROC is the final approving authority within JCIDS before passing the requirement to the acquisition process. During this transition the JROC membership remained unchanged but they did change from last to first approving authority in the major defense acquisition program process. This

Army Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs) continue to face significant challenges synchronizing air and ground operations through the execution of a Unit Airspace Plan (UAP). A well-developed UAP increases combat effectiveness by promoting the safe, efficient, and flexible use of airspace with minimum restraint upon airspace users. This paper does not propose a plan to solve all the challenges BCTs face. The intent is to share lessons learned from 2/25 IBCT’s Air Defense Air Management/ Brigade Aviation Element (ADAM/BAE) cell during our recent Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) rotation. Focus is placed on the development and implementation of the UAP. The major challenges discussed are clearly defining the roles and responsibilities of those involved with UAP development, the integration of both small and tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), and how to best manage a synchronized UAP.

The established CMOC “will integrate and synchronize interagency, intergovernmental organization (IGO), and nongovernmental organization (NGO) activities with joint force operations”.6

Yesterday during the JS Onboarding IPT, Col Conniff stated that the description "JEL+, JTDT, UTDT are part of the Joint Doctrine, Education and Training Electronic Information System (JDEIS). JEL+ is used by JS, combatant commands, Services, JPME institutions and the joint warfighter; it averages 300,000 (unclass) unique visitors per quarter. UTDT and JDDT are accessed by JS, combatant commands, Services, and combat support agencies. UTDT has 500 users, while JDDT has about 1000 users" is great.

Description: The ESSA storefront provides evolving federated querying capabilities across the participating national cybercenters. The system is designed to be extensible, allowing multiple participants to join the effort through shared common specifications, the Trusted Automated eXchange of Indicator Information (TAXII) 1.1 and the Structured Threat Information eXpression eXtensible Markup Language (STIX XML) 1.1.1. It also allows participants adhering to the ESSA Information Sharing Architecture (ISA) access control specification to choose what they are willing to share and with whom.
