چکیده
The effectiveness and agility of an operation can be compromised through impact of adversary cyber activity on performance of key assets. The agility of adversary activity demands focused and effective investment in cyber security: there is a need for strong awareness of the military impact of threat vectors within the mission landscape, such that cyber security can be managed through a balanced, measurable, mission-driven process. With insight into the landscape and potential impact on mission outcomes, decision makers in the capability acquisition or mission control space can make informed decisions and interventions; and hence can plan and act proactively and with agility, rather than reacting to events. MooD International has been working with Dstl to develop a causal modelling approach to support the mission commander in taking appropriate action in the face of overwhelming amounts of data that may be associated with cyber events. The approach projects likely consequences of cyber events by exploiting a cyber kill-chain concept, embedded in a model that aligns capabilities and components of the mission landscape. The approach has been applied as the engine for an interactive cyber-security situational awareness and decision environment for the mission commander, supporting impact analysis and exploration of alternative interventions.

"Operationalizing C2 Agility" is the process of moving from a conceptual model or theory of C2 Agility to applying this theory to improve an entity’s C2 Agility in practice. This process is greatly facilitated if one builds a proper foundation. In this paper, we begin by identifying the critical elements or cornerstones of such a foundation and the role they play in enabling an entity to system...

Agility is a theme which arises in relation to a range of endeavours in the military and the non-military world, appearing either in accounts of practical experience or in statements of aspirations. Concepts of agility have recently been surveyed in the course of an ongoing study of C2 agility conducted for the UK MOD. Whilst the accounts presented of agility differ widely, common to all of the...

The NATO Network Enabled Operations (NEC) C2 Maturity Model (N2C2M2) defines a number of command and control (C2) Approaches that correspond to various ways to accomplish C2 functions. These Approaches are defined by organizational the allocation of decision rights, patterns of interaction, and the distribution of information. Recent work in C2 theory has considered the differences in performan...
متن کاملICCRTS “ Operationalizing C 2 Agility ”
Alberts has offered a definition of agility and its constituent components. This paper describes where in the C2 system, or the force, the different agility requirements will have to be met, and how to measure if they are. The purpose of a C2 system is to achieve focus and convergence of some entities (the force) somewhere (the context) to accomplish something (the task or mission), together (m...
