Way Forward - Priorities
AFSPC/CC Cyberspace Activities
1. Defensive Counter Cyberspace (Recon/Counter Recon)
2. Offensive Counter Cyberspace for Global Reach & Access
3. Cyberspace ISR & Situational Awareness
4. Proactive Defense
5. Persistent Network Operations
6. Data Confidentiality & Integrity Systems (DCIS)
7. Network Extension & Resiliency
8. Cyberspace Command & Control

Way Forward - Cyber Requirements
•
•
Utilize JCIDS Information Systems (IS) Methodology
•
Introduced in most recent JCIDS guidance
•
Greater flexibility to incorporate evolving technologies
•
Fewer iterations validating documents through JCIDS process streamlines
cyber capabilities development
Accelerates delivery from concept to capability
•
Delivers early and continuous capability; maturity
iteration with operator feedback
•
Embraces changing/refining requirements (not scope)
•
Frequent communication and collaboration across stakeholders
Normalized Requirements and Acquisition Processes Can Be
Exploited To Deliver Sustainable Future Capabilities To The Warfighter

Summary
• What we’ve done
•
•
Normalized our Cyber Weapon Systems
AFSPC/CC reprioritized cyberspace activities
• What do we need from you?
•
•
Understand process to modify weapon-systems in sustainment
Help us identify dynamic and agile technologies to meet AF and Joint
operational needs
• Then what?
•
•
New cyber requirements documents enable continuous development and
delivery of capabilities
Identify what we need from industry and science and technology
