Col. Christopher Walls, deputy director for strategy and policy, at the Army\u2019s Cyber Directorate within the G-3\/5\/7, said at the C4ISRNET Conference in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, Walls said for a river crossing mission, a commander might say he needs to buy a few hours to get a battalion across. The CEMA cell, in turn, would look across the capability sets in its portfolio and come up with a course of action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These cells potentially have the ability to allow the commander to target local internet service providers or local routers and prevent opposing forces from using them. The teams may also have an electronic warfare capability that can jam local area network protocols. Finally, these teams might know where mobile switching centers are by digitally geolocating them allowing physical strikes to take them out, Walls said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t want the commander to worry about which of those three things, I just want him to talk to me in terms of desired objective and effects and then us, along with the staff, will determine which capability makes sense,\u201d Walls said. \u201cThat\u2019s kind of the way we\u2019re thinking about the tactical fight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best choice comes down to understanding the commander\u2019s objectives and intent in order to offer the best solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat I would do is understand his intent, what effect he wants and what I\u2019ll do is submit that in a formal request and I\u2019ll let the higher echelons determine if they can provide that effect,\u201d Capt. Daniel Oconer, brigade CEMA officer, told C4ISRNET during a recent visit to the National Training Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn general, all I really need to know for my planning processes is understand what the maneuver force wants to do,\u201d he added. \u201cHow do tanks and Bradleys [move], how are the troops on the ground moving. Then, what is their mission? What is their objective? What is the commander\u2019s intent? Once I understand that I throw some CEMA flavor, so to say, onto it and then enable them to accomplish their mission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oconer is currently billeted as a 29 series electronic warfare officer. The Army will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/show-reporter\/technet-augusta\/2017\/08\/14\/army-to-begin-transitioning-ew-personnel-to-cyber-in-january\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\">begin to transition these individuals<\/a> into the cyber branch, or 17 series, so they will all eventually be cyber planners in the CEMA cell.<\/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 Maj. Gen. John Morrison, commander of the Cyber Center of Excellence, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/electronic-warfare\/2018\/05\/16\/the-army-is-grooming-an-elite-tier-of-electronic-warriors\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\">said during a May speech<\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019re complimentary. You cannot look at electronic warfare professionals and cyber operators in isolation.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Cyber and Electromagnetic Activities cells have
