Robust Infrastructure

Abstract

US Cyber Command's (USCYBERCOM) mission is to deter or defeat strategic threats to US interests and infrastructure, provide mission assurance for the operations and defense of the Department of Defense information environment, and support the achievement of the Joint Force Commander's objectives. Robust Infrastructure are the platforms necessary to conduct offensive and defensive cyberspace operations. The Joint Common Access Platform (JCAP) supports USCYBERCOM by providing a protected, managed, orchestrated environment and common firing platform to coordinate and execute the delivery of cyber effects against approved targets. This capability enables Cyber Mission Forces' (CMF) ability to execute operations while managing detection and attribution. The JCAP program leverages existing service access platform programs, with the objective of combining, enhancing, and evolving existing program baselines into a "Best of Breed" JCAP. The Robust Infrastructure portfolio provides select resources in support of Defensive Cyber Operations, such as the managed unclassified infrastructure that provides virtual tenant spaces for Cyber National Mission Force (CNMF) Hunt Forward Operations (HFO) missions. CNMF conducted 22 HFO deployments to support foreign allies/partners over FY 2023. Robust Infrastructure also includes Cyberspace Rapid Response Platform (CRRP) resources critical for CYBERCOM's CNMF to successfully implement new and extended capabilities, services, tradecraft/tactics, and partnerships optimized to accelerate and expand opportunities to counter adversary aggression, especially when arising under no-notice and other emergent / crisis scenarios. CRRP resources are foundational for the success of the CNMF's new Joint Task Force ZERO, which is charged with rapid access generation, innovation, and transfer of actionable cyber insights and methods across the CNMF as a whole, to other CYBERCOM elements, and to designated partners.
