What Is Coast Guard Crypto/Cyber-Force Training?

Physical security can be very complex, as the evolution of technology changes on a daily basis. The dual role concept is a dilemma that poses a constant struggle within the agency. The ability to maintain consistency with technological advancements utilizing physical security practices of the past is a significant challenge that FPS faces. Another area of concern is the complexity of security and the deficiency of training. Advancements in technology necessitate training advancements. From the initial understanding of basic alarm theory covering the simplistic concept and design of an intrusion detection system (IDS), to a system that is virtually state of the art in capability and technical

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

PO2 Cavanaugh assisted with administering and qualifying 4 Information Warfare (IW) boards resulting in 4 NCTS FE Sailors earning their Information Warfare (IW)

The unified training for all levels of law enforcement ensures a common focus and standard are obtained, and that the necessary information is being transmitted to those who need it. As technology continues to advance, the threat of cyber attacks continue to rise as well. The stability of a nation's physical and electronic infrastructure is vital to the success of a nation. The efforts of both of these sections of the Department of Homeland Security are essential to the overall mission of keeping the nation

education and contract diversity. Because of the wide gap in educational requirements between each purpose the military fulfills, mission completion has necessitated the recruiting of both active duty military members, and specialized civilian employees and contractors. The increasing advanced requirements for cyberspace defense and weapon research cannot be adequately met through an organizational model dependant on the recruiting of enlisted members, who usually have an educational level no higher than high school, and officer members, who often have not obtained an educational level higher than a baccalaureate prior to service entry. The Air force needs traditional military members to maintain proficiency and command during standard warfare operations. It needs highly technical positions, which the government can only hope to effectively obtain from civilians, who naturally expect better pay and treatment

One of my most important goals is having the knowledge and skill set to make a difference. The ability to analyze security related problems and develop sound solutions can only be gained through education and experience. This degree program will provide me the ability to project my thoughts regarding security concerns with a rationale yet credible solutions that are supported by experience and knowledge obtained from this higher level of education. The Master’s Degree program will enhance my ability to analyze weaknesses in our national security and develop problem-solving skills that are required to be successful in today’s ever-evolving security within FPS and the Department of Homeland Security. The development of the Interagency Security Committee (ISC) that has established security standards for our government facilities is invaluable. If ISC standards would have been implemented in the past, many horrific tragedies would not have occurred at our federal facilities. It is imperative that these standards are improved upon to meet the security demands of the future. This can only happen through continued education and commitment to enhancing our security. The completion of this degree program will provide me the necessary skills to improve all aspects of security not only as a commander within FPS but in all areas of DHS. I will have accomplished my goal, but more importantly strengthened a nation that relies on keeping one-step ahead of a security breach within our critical

USARECs tactical organizations recruiting centers are responsible for prospecting and recruiting professional individuals that will volunteer for a job serving as a Soldier. Their main effort involves identifying and creating the Soldier of 2025 that will fight to win any complex operating environment. Daily NCOs engage local communities to find individuals to enlist despite the changing United States (US) society where 7 out of 10 prospects do not qualify to enlist into the Army. NCOs at this tactical level have a tremendous challenge in their day-to-day operations. They have to accomplish daily operations by overcoming many factors and challenges. These challenges include economic conditions, persistent and unstable Middle East, China,

This is the greater context facing the U.S. Army’s 516th Signal Brigade based in Hawaii. The 516th Signal Brigade consists of 2,500 soldiers and federal employees responsible for the installation, operation, and defense of tactical and strategic information technology (IT) networks for the U.S. Army in the Pacific Theater (from Japan to Alaska). Every day the 516th Signal Brigade must defend against cyber-attacks, provide IT service support to many thousands of users, and remain prepared to deploy quickly its mobile communications teams in the event of conflict or a natural disaster. However, during my tenure within the brigade from 2013-2015, I discovered

Unfilled cybersecurity occupations prompt more current position. As the cybersecurity business keeps on prospering, profession openings are

As a child, I grew up enjoying mathematics and science; this led to my dream of becoming an Information Security Analyst by majoring in Computer Engineering in college. I chose this profession because over the past couple of years, the world has become more dependent on technology, which means that there is more technology that needs to be developed and better network security will need to be implanted to meet the progressing world’s standards. By being in this profession, there will always be job opportunities in small and large companies because networks, computers, cell phones and many other gadgets are prone to being compromised. For example, Boeing is a prestigious, global company that is one of the leading manufacturers of cyber security that offers several internship and job opportunities to undergraduates and graduates. Future graduates will be able to learn reliable information on what they need to become an information security analyst because an intensive amount of time was taken to research and find credible sources.
