DoD is missing? For #SBOM, #DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (#CISA) just released the #RSAA "Repository for Software Attestations and Artifacts" to keep track of #Software Bills of Material (SBOMs) for U.S. Government Agencies. Yet it seems like a developer forgot to include #DoD and any of our #military branches (#Army, #Navy, #Marines, #AirForce) as part of their #cybersecurity #compliance. Any ideas why United States Department of Defense isn't included for SBOM management, Allan Friedman, PhD, Sandra Radesky, Kevin Donovan? [FYSA Lauren Boas Hayes] If not CISA RSAA, what platform should we be using to ingest for our teams? John B. Sherman Jay Bonci Should we be procuring our own or expecting DoD to rapidly field something to meet the 12 month requirement that started on 15 March, due in 2025 to gather SBOMs and ensure compliance?

🔐 Securing Military Operations In the dynamic and high-stakes world of military operations, data security is not just a priority—it's a strategic imperative. Opposing forces perpetually seek opportunities to seize crucial data and losing a mobile device without embedded security could be catastrophic, especially if it falls into the wrong hands. In the latest NITECH issue (NATO Innovation and Technology magazine) Jonathan Tucker sheds light on the critical importance of safeguarding sensitive information in the field. 💡 Read Jon's article on pages 50 and 51.

US Navy leaders are embracing the information age as a game-changer in the evolution of power. With potential confrontations with Russia and China, the Navy is placing a strong emphasis on data collection, sharing, and weaponization. A combination of traditional munitions and advanced software will be crucial for success in future conflicts. To strengthen its approach to information warfare, the Navy is integrating information warfare specialists aboard submarines and carrier strike groups. The Navy also plans to introduce 20 information warfare systems into its training environments to ensure sailors are well-versed in these capabilities. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, the Navy recognizes the significance of information as combat power. Its inaugural cyber strategy emphasizes the importance of secure information and the protection of critical infrastructure. #USNavy #InformationAge #PowerEvolution #MilitaryTechnology #USNavyLeadership #MilitaryStrategy #CyberSecurity

#StatecraftInTheNews: The People’s Liberation Army (PLA) is undergoing its most significant reorganisation in nearly a decade, emphasising information, cyber, and space operations. Recently, the PLA unveiled the Information Support Force, a strategic branch dedicated to information operations, as part of Beijing's efforts to enhance modern warfare capabilities. Defence Ministry spokesperson Wu Qian described the establishment of the Information Support Force as a “major decision”, highlighting its role in promoting high-quality military development. China is also elevating the status of its cyber and space units, which now parallel the newly created Information Support Force. Under the direct command of the Central Military Commission (CMC), the Information Support Force, cyber, and aerospace forces play critical roles in China’s military strategy. The PLA's acknowledgement of the importance of information warfare underscores its commitment to gaining the initiative in conflicts. With these changes, the PLA now consists of four branches and four arms, each with specific roles and responsibilities. Amid rising tensions with the US, particularly in cybersecurity, China emphasises its commitment to cybersecurity while denouncing baseless accusations and advocating for cooperation.

The U.S. Air Force has released a new doctrine for electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO), reflecting a significant shift in the operational landscape. Published on December 14, the document presents updated concepts, terminology, and strategies, emphasizing an offensive, dominant approach to EMSO. This update, which is a departure from the previous doctrine, underscores the critical role of the electromagnetic spectrum in joint operations and the need for Airmen to develop comprehensive EMS capabilities. Recognizing the evolving nature of warfare and the strategic importance of EMS, especially given adversaries' recognition of the U.S. military's dependence on it, this new doctrine aligns with the National Defense Strategy. It includes integration with cyber operations, electromagnetic warfare in space, and a focus on reprogramming, for which a new wing has been established. The doctrine, which has been in development since January 2022, represents the Air Force's commitment to maintaining pace with adversary advances and ensuring EMS superiority. #usairforce #emso #electromagneticspectrum #militarytechnology #nationaldefense #cyberoperations #electromagneticwarfare #advancedmilitary #airsuperiority #defensestrategy Source- https://lnkd.in/ehhKdTvM
