Paul Nakasone, the head of Cyber Command, told Congress in March that synchronizing non-kinetic capabilities such as cyber, electronic warfare and information operations provides a tremendous

mission forces operate the electronic warfare system, Nakasone said Cyber Command officials are still working through that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cyber forces of the
