Una herramienta cibern\u00e9tica cr\u00edtica, que podr\u00eda ayudar a los comandantes militares a tomar mejores decisiones durante las operaciones cibern\u00e9ticas y que ha estado en desarrollo durante muchos a\u00f1os, ha pasado oficialmente al Comando Cibern\u00e9tico de EE.UU.<\/p>\n
WASHINGTON \u2014 A critical cyber tool, one that could help military commanders make better decisions during cyber operations and has been in development for many years, has officially transitioned to U.S. Cyber Command.<\/p>\n
Project Ike<\/a>\u00a0is a prototyping effort that once got its start under the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency under the name Plan X in 2013. It was later moved to the Pentagon\u2019s Strategic Capabilities Office in\u00a0July 2019\u00a0<\/a>with an award to contractor Two Six Labs for $95 million dollars. Then in early April, the program officially transitioned to a program under the Joint Cyber Command and Control (JCC2) program management office, a Department of Defense spokesperson told C4ISRNET. Ike, will be used to map networks, assess the readiness of cyber teams and command forces in cyberspace.<\/p>\n Project Ike was thought by many to be a precursor to JCC2, which is one pillar of Cyber Command\u2019s\u00a0Joint Cyber Warfighting Architecture<\/a>, which will guide how Cyber Command leaders develop and procure capabilities. The Air Force is managing JCC2 on behalf of Cyber Command and the joint cyber force.<\/p>\n Few details about the work of JCC2 program have surfaced in recent years. The Department of Defense\u00a0requested $38.4 million for the initiative in the fiscal 2021 budget<\/a>\u00a0with efforts primarily dedicated toward developing new capabilities, expanding the program office, building up DevSecOps teams for pilot programs at combatant commands, creating a development environment and infrastructure and integrating situational awareness capabilities.<\/p>\n According to the Government Accountability Office and government officials, the JCC2 program seeks to integrate data from a variety of sources to help inform and support commanders\u2019 decisions, measure readiness down to the individual level, visualize cyberspace and provide situational awareness of forces in operations at all echelons.<\/p>\n \u201c[JCC2] allows us to plan, synchronize and assess. How do you stich together your joint campaign plans with your campaign orders and of course your tactical orders and your missions,\u201d Col. Benjamin Ring, director of the Joint Cyber Warfighting Architecture Capability Management Office at Cyber Command, said during a March virtual event. \u201cHow do you stich together assessments and effects and successes from your tactical missions and then feed that back into your strategic planning so you can drive and become a learning organization.\u201d<\/p>\n The GAO said in a November report that while the Air Force initiated the program in 2017, it had not yet formally entered the acquisition lifecycle.<\/p>\n
