DIRECTIVE
NUMBER 8140.01
August 11, 2015
DoD CIO
SUBJECT: Cyberspace Workforce Management
References: See Enclosure 1
1. PURPOSE. This directive:
a. Reissues and renumbers DoD Directive (DoDD) 8570.01 (Reference (a)) to update and
expand established policies and assigned responsibilities for managing the DoD cyberspace
workforce.
b. Authorizes establishment of a DoD cyberspace workforce management council to ensure
that the requirements of this directive are met. The council will be comprised of representatives
from the Offices of the DoD Chief Information Officer (DoD CIO), Under Secretary of Defense
for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)), Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (USD(P)),
Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence (USD(I)), the Joint Staff, the Director, National
Security Agency/Chief, Central Security Service (DIRNSA/CHCSS), and other DoD
Components.
c. Unifies the overall cyberspace workforce and establishes specific workforce elements
(cyberspace effects, cybersecurity, and cyberspace information technology (IT)) to align, manage
and standardize cyberspace work roles, baseline qualifications, and training requirements. This
directive does not address operational employment of the work roles. Operational employment
of the cyberspace workforce will be determined by the Joint Staff, Combatant Commands, and
other DoD Components to address mission requirements.
2. APPLICABILITY. This directive applies to OSD, the Military Departments, the Office of
the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) and the Joint Staff, the Combatant Commands,
the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense (IG DoD), the Defense
Agencies, the DoD Field Activities, and all other organizational entities within the DoD (referred
to collectively in this directive as the “DoD Components”).

3. POLICY. It is DoD policy that:
a. The DoD maintains a total force management perspective to provide qualified cyberspace
government civilian and military personnel to identified and authorized positions, augmented
where appropriate by contracted services support. These personnel function as an integrated
workforce with complementary skill sets to provide an agile, flexible response to DoD
requirements.
b. The appropriate mix of military and government civilian positions and contracted support
designated to perform cyberspace work roles is determined in accordance with DoD Instruction
(DoDI) 1100.22 (Reference (b)).
c. Civilian, military, and contracted support personnel assigned to perform cyberspace work
roles must meet qualification standards established in supporting issuances, in addition to other
existing workforce qualification and training requirements assigned to billets and position
requirements (e.g., acquisition, intelligence, communications). DoD Component contracting
officials apply subpart 239.71 of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement
(Reference (c)) for contracted support designated to perform cyberspace workforce work roles.
d. DoD Component compliance with this directive is monitored via authoritative manpower
and personnel systems as an element of mission readiness and as a management review item.
Compliance with requirements of this directive must be included in DoD and DoD Component-
level inspection programs and readiness reporting.
e. Nothing in this directive replaces or infringes the responsibilities, functions, or authorities
of the DoD Component heads or other OSD officials as prescribed by law or Executive order,
assigned in chartering DoDDs, or detailed in other DoD policy issuances or, as applicable, in
Director of National Intelligence policy issuances.
f. All authorized users of DoD IT receive initial cybersecurity and information assurance
awareness orientation as a condition of access, and thereafter must complete annual
cybersecurity and information assurance refresher awareness.
4. RESPONSIBILITIES. See Enclosure 2.
5. RELEASABILITY. Cleared for public release. This directive is available on the Internet
from the DoD Issuances Website at http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives.
