3 Enable The Joint Force D O T M L P F J6 Mission Develop, integrate and assess C4/Cyber capability requirements on behalf of the Joint Force in order to: Deliver a sustained information advantage Enable decision and action at the speed of the problem Ensure the Warfighter receives jointly integrated and effective capabilities necessary to conduct operations Command and Control Integration (C2I) US-Coalition Data Exchange Software Encryption Data and Standards Mission Partner Environment Cyber Assessments Requirements Architectures Data Standards Assessment - Mission command - Seize, retain and exploit initiative - Global agility - Partnering - Flexibility in establishing Joint Forces - Cross-domain synergy - Information Sharing - Increasingly discriminate to minimize unintended consequences Disciplined Requirement Development and Assessment 3

4 Premise Key to Globally Integrated Operations is Interoperability The continual search for interoperability has been and continues to be defined by the communities which seeks it. What works for one community may not work for another; therefore, the interoperability standards for one community are usually not interoperable with another yielding tailored solutions. Contemporary operations demand increased information sharing, often between un-forecasted entities. 4

5 Mission Partner Environment(MPE) Range of Military Operations What is the CDRs intent? What is the mission? What information needs to be shared? Who are the partners? What classification level(s) do you need to operate in? UNCLASS NETWORKS MAX OMB Classified Releasable FEDERATED MISSION NETWORKS HA/DR US BICES-X LOW TO HIGH MN BICES MCO 5

6 What is Needed Future information exchange solutions must: Respond to warfighter needs Be data standards driven Allow agile implementation Be easily composable Be easily scalable Accommodate a diverse user community Quickly integrate unanticipated users Incorporate a trust but verify approach 6

7 Standards-Based Approach for Information Exchanges The National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) provides a potential way forward Not a military invention Repeatable process for designing an information exchange Uses a collection of agreed, reusable data components XML-based Allows machine-to-machine data exchange to be implemented faster and at lower cost Approach already successfully demonstrated in a Mission Partner Environment 7

9 How can Industry Help? New Rules Our nation s collective capability depends on industry for success in our future military operations, especially in environments that are increasingly dangerous and very complex. Industry, not Defense, is now the leader in IT development. Now is the time to accept the mission knowing that our future security relies on commercial dominance. Embrace and adopt approaches that better meet the needs of our contemporary and future operating environments. 9

10 Questions? 10

11 UNCLASSIFIED Mission Partner Environment - What does the Commander need? Communicate Commander s Intent Build trust Create unity of effort Possess speed of command Operate in the information environment not just share information Our capabilities, tactics, techniques, procedures and terminology must be able to translate across the services, the interagency and with our mission partners (Chairman s 2nd Term Strategic Direction to the Force) 11

12 UNCLASSIFIED MPE Operational Metrics MPE So What Clearly Communicates Commander s intent and provides speed of command for desired operational effects with all mission partners Allows for US and non-us formations, information, and data to operate in the same battlespace (physical and non-physical) Leverages key US SIPRnet enablers (Joint Fires, Intel, Logistics, etc.) Flexibility in task organizing formations to fight more effectively Achieves a CCMD standard for consistency with allies and mission partners US and partners fight with the equipment they own and train with Addresses CCMD persistent info sharing requirements and JTF episodic events Elevates mission partners to peers and recognizes their sovereignty Defines the level of trust & addresses cyber vulnerabilities upfront 12 Mission Partner Advance Planning, Training, versus Crisis Reaction

13 Software encryption methods may finally address this long standing issue Software Encryption Interoperability Assessment NSA Suite B software encryption Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) security solution Public standards, protocols, algorithms and modes for protecting classified information Eliminate the need to transport bulky equipment Ease the burden of deployed forces Prototype Assessment Objective: Ensure this new capability meets NSA requirements and needs of the Warfighter Bulky communications encryption hampers troops operating in remote locations 13

14 Warfighter Challenge COCOM s need enduring solutions supporting persistent cross-cocom information sharing capabilities with mission partners n a fiscally constrained environment: There is no immediate solution to address the problem COCOMs have an near-term requirement and desire for virtualized enclaves, commercial encryption, shared IT infrastructures, secure cloud services, machine to machine data exchanges and cross domain gateways Collective government and Industry need to ensure the coalition interoperability solution support operational relevance Enduring efforts need to be linked with the Episodic way ahead 14

15 How do you know when you arrive? Coalition Interoperability Assurance and Validation (CIAV) Improve global interoperability Implement and execute: Coalition focused, mission based process Persistent Environment Experimentation Development and Operational Assessments Train as we Partner Proactive vice Crisis Management Notional Mission Partner Test Environment

16 Where do we go from here? Paradigm Shift: Think inside, but start outside! If everyone did it like me, we would be interoperable! ME Them Them If I did it like you, I would have to change everything! ME What would allow me to do what I want, but still communicate with everyone? Joint Coalition Commercial 16 It s all about me! It s all about us!
