Stacking Cybersecurity: Crossing the Virtual to Physical Incident Investigation Threshold

Abstract

The official designation of cyberspace as an operational domain and the recent DoD-wide efforts to develop and defend a Joint Information Environment create the need for dynamic and effective capabilities, which do not currently exist. The Marine Corps must recognize the emerging threats, both internal and external, and outpace them to ensure its ability to employ the right force at the right place at the right time. This paper outlines current deficiencies and several solutions for the Marine Corps to expand its organic capability and capacity for a layered defense-in-depth of the MCEN, specifically through leveraging counterintelligence authorities in support of cybersecurity.
