Securing the Grid

By John J. Dunks

The United States of America has created the United States Cyber Command to be the Department of Defense focal point for the coordination and security of cyberspace relating to military operations. This in itself is not sufficient to provide America#65533;s Department of Defense with adequately secure critical infrastructure. An additional effort is needed to mitigate current international cyber threats, increase inter-organization coordination, and adjust cultural mindsets. It is necessary to improve the access to #65533;ground truth#65533; information in the cyber domain, to overcome organizational barriers, implement a holistic strategy, and best tackle the diverse and complex challenges. The United States military must increase its awareness and influence in industrial control system cyber security to assure its military effectiveness. The United States needs to engage and express requirements to critical infrastructure entities to strengthen cyber security, assure mission success, and build resilient capabilities.
