Captain Christopher Page outlines the importance of information dominance for achieving operational advantage through assured command and control (C2), battlespace awareness, and integrated fires. Key initiatives include the implementation of a comprehensive end-to-end architecture and the need for agile policy responses to asymmetric threats in the cyber and space domains. The focus is on ensuring the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of data while addressing vulnerabilities within the naval command and control systems.

- 1. CAPT Christopher Page, USN Deputy Director, Assured Command & Control Division OPNAV N2/N6F1 Unclassified 20140507
- 3. Information Dominance 3 “Operational advantage gained from fully integrating information functions, capabilities and resources to optimize decision making and maximize warfighting effects.” Accomplished by 3 core capabilities: Assuring C2 Maintaining Battlespace Awareness Integrating Fires Delivering Warfighting Effects! UNCLASSIFIED
- 4. 4 Satellites and Tactical Datalinks Correlate, decide, disseminate in all environments Electromagnetic Spectrum C3 PlatformsTools Afloat and Ashore Networks Unclassified
- 5. Warfighter’s Assured C2 Perspective – Data Availability – Data Integrity – Data Confidentiality Adversary’s Perspective – The above present exploitable attack vectors Must identify attack vectors, map materiel solutions and develop appropriate policy and Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP) Must be addressed in a comprehensive, end-to-end architecture – Individually addressing Availability, Integrity and/or Confidentiality will not “Assure C2” 5 Agile policy underpins a comprehensive end to end architecture
- 6. Assured communications architecture despite the full range of adversary actions, environment impacts, and EM Spectrum dynamics There is no Silver Bullet – Asymmetric Space and Cyber threats require an architectural response – Includes: Transport, Networks, Policy, Applications New Concept of Operations (CONOPS) and TTP – Fleet will fight with significantly less network access Joint, Interagency, and Coalition interoperability are paramount Austere budget environment demands better decision-making, greater agility, stronger partnerships with service providers 6 Our greatest capabilities can become our greatest vulnerabilities
- 7. Bolster Nuclear Command, Control, and Communications (NC3) capabilities for Navy and the Nation Implement Joint Information Environment (JIE) and Intelligence Community Information Technology Enterprise (IC ITE) Execute named Cyber Remediation campaign across Navy’s end-to- end Information Dominance Enterprise Architecture (IDEA) Finalize Technology Transition Agreement (TTA) for integrating Naval Tactical Cloud (NTC) into Agile Core Services (ACS) Mature Assured C2 Integrated Readiness Assessment (IRA) and IT Baseline Assessment Memorandum (BAM) Manage Assured C2 Programs of Record across the ashore, afloat, and aloft segments of the IDEA 7
- 8. CANES – CONSOLIDATED AFLOAT NETWORKS AND ENTERPRISE SERVICE Consolidate multiple afloat networks: – Provide secure, reliable common hosting for multiple C4I applications – Provide integrated voice, video, data and system management – Single, scalable IT platform that will enable Assured C2 8 Today: Tactical Data Link (TDL) EM Spectrum Awareness Tomorrow:
- 9. 9 Navy Marine Corps Intranet Continuity of Service Contract Next Generation Enterprise Network OCONUS Navy Enterprise Network JIE = Joint Information Environment Navy Information Environment Sensitive Compartmented Information Networks IC ITE = Intel Community IT Enterprise
- 10. CANES 10 NGEN, CANES, DCC are keys to success -- aligned to JIE Next Generation Enterprise Network (NGEN) Data Center Consolidation (DCC) Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services (CANES)
- 11. Ensure commander’s ability to command assigned forces in any environment Assured EM spectrum access in high-threat scenarios to transport, share, store, protect and disseminate critical data “Operationalization” of the EM spectrum and cyberspace into a warfighting domain Enable use of the EM spectrum as maneuver space. 11 Assured C2 Battlespace Awareness Integrated Fires Assured EM Spectrum - Pathway to Navy Information Dominance
- 12. Assured C2 sets conditions for Navy commanders to maintain the IT- enabled ability to exercise C2 authorities across the sea, land, air, space, and cyberspace domains in heavily contested or denied operating conditions. Navy must continue to clearly define and manage capability-based Assured C2 requirements and resources, and align those requirements and resources with JIE/IC ITE through the IDEA The primary beneficiaries of the effort to deliver Assured C2 capabilities are the requirements stakeholders: USFF, USPACFLT, and USFLTCYBERCOM subordinate commanders who execute Navy’s warfighting mission in all domains. 12 Assuring C2 for Information Dominance
