Cyber Sand Tables: Representing the Cyber Integrated Battlefield to Decision Makers

Abstract

In order to support the delegation of cyberspace effects, the US military will need to develop cyberspace capabilities at the operational and tactical levels in order to maintain US superiority within all war fighting domains. Future conflicts will demand a more flexible and capable US military that can operate in an anti-access area denial environment while still maintaining the weapon system capabilities that are employed through cyberspace. The local battlefield commander will require the authority to prosecute cyberspace targets in the physical and cyber domains. To support these commanders, accurate depictions of cyberspace, which can fuse these domains into a realistic depiction, will be a requirement.
