UNCLASSIFIED CHAT ROOM UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED Technology Developments UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED Discussion on System A UNCLASSIFIED Software Agents for OPSEC UNCLASSIFIED Related systems throughout the World UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED System A Developments UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED THREAT SYSTEMDISCUSSIONS UNCLASSIFIED • Use Intelligent Agents to collect, analyze and correlate web data • Identify possible OPSEC problems • Continuous monitoring

  32. More Concepts • Miniaturized Global Positioning System Jammer • GPS jamming of our adversaries from a low cost, easily deployed and concealed battery-power unit • Signal Analysis Mapping (SAM) • An anomaly prediction system that allows aircrews to better discriminate between threat and non-threat emitters • Voice Optimal Interrogation and Characterization Environment (VOICE) • Rapidly digitize, translate, visualize voice communication collections

  33. Experiments • Information Assurance (IA) Tools experiment to synchronize planning and development efforts among CINCs, Services, and Agencies • Participants: • Joint Battle Center • Army, Navy, and AF IW Battlelabs • JIOC • DISA • Benefits: • Identified IA tools for the near term • Described standard IA toolkit for the JTF • Preparation for Expeditionary Force Experiment

  34. Future Challenges • Increase Information and System Protection • Greater play in Joint Exercises/Experiments • Integrate Information Attack functions • Seek Opportunities to Make the IO Force More Effective and Lethal • Improve Information Available to Customers • Explore Initiatives WithBroader Operational Impact

  35. Bottom Line • High-tech tools are readily available • We have to stay ahead of our adversaries • Information Warfare is notabout technology • Information Warfare is about exploitingtechnology “Dominating the information spectrum is as critical to conflict now as occupying the land or controlling the air has been in the past.” Gen Fogleman, AF Chief of Staff
