We\u2019re bowing to the reality that offensively, this is what commanders in many cases want us to do for them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the top of Fogarty\u2019s wish list is the need for U.S. forces to understand the environment, which includes being able to see themselves and the adversary, with the ultimate goal of better understanding what might be occurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pitfalls of not having such a capability culminated on November 8, 2016, election night in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fogarty described how he was on the U.S. Cyber Command operations floor that night as the command\u2019s chief of staff, gearing up for what would be the largest cyber operation conducted by the United States, an operation against ISIS that was broadly considered a success within the Pentagon. However, Fogarty juxtaposed that event with another information operation that culminated on election night: the Russian disinformation campaign during the 2016 presidential election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs we start to really unpeel the environment what we\u2019ve recognized is that we were going to have to change dramatically,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army, therefore, is going to have to be comfortable with using non-traditional means. For example, he described the non-traditional use of commercial providers that have sensors all over the world. This could allow forces to understand problems as they form. It would also allow forces to apply patches before attacks hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat that implies to me is significantly more autonomous capabilities. Many of the operations we do today, I would argue, are too manpower intensive,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re at a point now where we have hundreds, in some cases, almost thousands of reps and we\u2019re still using the same techniques. I think that\u2019s a losing strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One example is troll farms. While not as sophisticated as traditional military capability, troll farms have been effective at creating chaos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of work left to do to transition Army Cyber, Fogarty said they\u2019re going to try to fast track the name request through the Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additionally, he mentioned that the cyber and electromagnetic activities sections the Army is creating at each echelon from brigade to corps, will next become information warfare sections. This means they will be able to provide commanders the planning expertise and outreach necessary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Army is working to create a singular
