But what\u2019s the military\u2019s role when it comes to combating information warfare and the \u201cfake news\u201d that continues to evolve as a battlefront?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While not a primary mission for U.S. forces, understanding information warfare and how it impacts areas of responsibility is something that is taken into consideration in U.S. cyber training and operations, according to Department of Defense officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think there are two parts to get that,\u201d said Col. Todd Stratton, director of Air Forces Cyber Forward. \u201cOne is the more traditional approach of cybersecurity, which evolved from information assurance, which is looking at the confidentiality, the integrity and the availability of your information. That is still a core responsibility for my component, and that continues to be very important to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOn the flip side, when you start talking about social media and fake news, it gets to \u2026 the key to cyberspace superiority or dominance, which is the people,\u201d continued Stratton. \u201cWhen it comes down to it, it\u2019s the training you give your airmen and your population, frankly, to think critically.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/smr\/cybercon\/2017\/11\/28\/how-cybercoms-efforts-against-isis-have-changed\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\" data-original-title=\"\">How CYBERCOM\u2019s efforts against ISIS have changed<\/a>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s enough of a concern for the Army to send a team of researchers to Ukraine to participate in an international, three-year science and technology program aimed at understanding and fighting modern information warfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.army.mil\/article\/197316\/army_researchers_join_international_team_to_understand_defeat_disinformation_cyberattacks\" title=\"\">Army release<\/a>, the group will develop theoretical foundations, methods and approaches toward software tools for situational awareness that enable military forces to monitor for, detect and notify of malicious information injections and information attacks, said Dr. Alexander Kott, Army Research Laboratory chief scientist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cInformation attacks have emerged as a major concern of societies worldwide. They come under different names and in different flavors \u2014 fake news, disinformation, political astroturfing, influence operations, etc,\u201d Kott said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd they may arrive as a component of hybrid warfare \u2014 in combination with traditional cyberattacks (use of malware), and with conventional military action or covert physical attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/smr\/cybercon\/2017\/11\/29\/what-cyber-command-learned-from-isis-operations\/\" title=\"\">U.S. Cyber Command<\/a>, much of the information-warfare emphasis is on verifying the security of data and ensuring it\u2019s safe and worthy of essentially being deemed actionable intelligence, according to Brig. Gen. Timothy Haugh, USCYBERCOM director of intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking alongside Stratton at the Nov. 28 CyberCon event in Arlington, Virginia, Haugh said that idea applies to data whether it\u2019s on military networks or intelligence from elsewhere being used for decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cConverting that into something that\u2019s decision quality, and trusting in that, is critical. And that\u2019s an area that we have to partner with all elements of the government and industry as we think about what does it mean in terms of trusting the information that\u2019s in front of us to ensure it\u2019s not [biased] in some way and that someone hasn\u2019t manipulated that data,\u201d Haugh said. \u201cWe have to ensure we\u2019re making decisions off quality information.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding today&#8217;s information warfare is key to U.S. training and operations to achieve superiority or dominance in
