This session will provide an overview of current and future capabilities, policies, and resource requirements to facilitate communications security modernization and network transformation that enable building the Multi-Domain Force. With a goal to mitigate emerging threats to our current capabilities, the CIO, acquisition, and logistics communities' representatives are visiting numerous geographical locations to inform and educate commands about current and future requirements that include Advanced Cryptographic Capabilities (ACC), as well as gathering and sharing data from the different commands on current issues and future required capabilities. An additional objective for this effort is ensuring commands better understand and meet emerging requirements. The HQDA CIO/G-6 Cybersecurity and Information Assurance Directorate is also preparing and providing command plan guidance to send Army Commands (ACOM), Army Service Component Commands (ASCC) and Direct Reporting Units (DRU) to gather data on current and future requirements for COMSEC. The session will explain the Army COMSEC modernization implementation planning guidance for near, mid and long term. Areas of focus include activities necessary to address legacy equipment, migrations, and alignment of ACC and Key Management Infrastructure (KMI), secure voice, tactical radio, embedded crypto modernization and other applicable subjects.
