Gen. John Morrison, commander of the Cyber Center of Excellence, said during a keynote presentation May 16 at the AFCEA Defensive Cyber Operations symposium in Baltimore, Maryland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JSOC refers to the elite special operations units such as Naval Special Warfare Development Group \u2014 better known as SEAL Team 6 \u2014 and Delta Force. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ll have tactical cyber operators \u2026 then the very, very, very best will move into the cyber mission force,\u201d Morrison said, referring to the cyber warrior cadre that serves U.S. Cyber Command and conduct strategic level cyber operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Effective October 1 of this year, the EW workforce will transition to the cyber branch and will go through a series of mobile training teams that are teaching them how to do planning in the cyber domain, Morrison said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone new entering the electronic warfare force after that will first go through cyber training at Fort Gordon and then will move to specific training in conducting operations in and through the electromagnetic spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is all part of a new construct the Army is instituting to insert cyber and electromagnetic activities cells organically within brigade combat teams to provide commanders with planning in those domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Future wars will require these high-end capabilities and commanders must have staff that can understand and help plan schemes of maneuver within them to get at larger objectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe way that we\u2019re transforming our electronic warfare professionals is they will become cyber operators. They will be the face inside our brigade combat teams and our maneuver formations for cyber operational planning,\u201d Morrison said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey\u2019re complimentary. You cannot look at electronic warfare professionals and cyber operators in isolation.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The service wants its approach to a cyber\/EW workforce
