Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual, “Visual Information Operations,” provides the visual information activities, roles, management and support from the operational through the tactical levels of war. This manual describes the capabilities and components of visual information assets and defines the organizational structure and responsibilities of visual information activities at each level. When applicable, the reader is referred to supporting publications for more detailed information. Visual Information is the use of one or more of the various visual media with or without sound. Generally, visual information includes still photography, motion picture photography, video or audio recording, graphic arts, visual aids, models, display, visual presentation services, and the support processes. The mission of VI activities and Soldiers is to acquire and provide the President, Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), Joint Staff (JS), military departments, and Army commanders with record documentation, multimedia/VI products, and services to satisfy official requirements. Security classification, operations security or subject sensitivity should not be used to prevent visual information documentation (VIDOC), since VI products can be classified at any level required. The official requirements, which VI Soldiers can provide support to may include, but are not limited to, command and control (C2), training, education, logistics, human resources, special operations, information operations (IO), psychological operations (PSYOP), public affairs (PA), and intelligence to effectively convey accurate intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance to the Soldier, decision-makers, and supporting organizations. However, because these Soldiers have specific missions that require special training, augmentation is limited to providing support, which a commander requests and for which the VI Soldier is equipped and trained. VI Soldiers may be required to perform dedicated VI capabilities to support medical, safety, and criminal investigation. VI support is limited to official events or activities. The priority set for VI support will be established with consideration to mission, cost effectiveness, and the quality and quantity of products and services available. The use of VI products, equipment, or facilities for other than official purposes, such as loaning equipment to local and state governments or nonprofit organizations meeting on government property, is at the discretion of the local commander in accordance with (IAW) Army Regulation (AR) 700-131, AR 735-5 and AR 25-1.

Generally, visual information includes still photography, motion picture photography, video or audio recording, graphic arts, visual aids, models, display, visual presentation services, and the support processes. Also called VI. Joint Publication (JP) 1- 02. This chapter defines and addresses VI, its mission, support, the Defense Imagery Management Operations Center, VI responsibilities, and activities.The mission of VI activities and Soldiers is to acquire and provide the President, Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), Joint Staff (JS), military departments, and Army commanders with record documentation, multimedia/VI products, and services to satisfy official requirements. Security classification, operations security or subject sensitivity should not be used to prevent visual information documentation (VIDOC), since VI products can be classified at any level required.

However, because these Soldiers have specific missions that require special training, augmentation is limited to providing support, which a commander requests and for which the VI Soldier is equipped and trained. VI Soldiers may be required to perform dedicated VI capabilities to support medical, safety, and criminal investigation. VI support is limited to official events or activities. The priority set for VI support will be established with consideration to mission, cost effectiveness, and the quality and quantity of products and services available. The use of VI products, equipment, or facilities for other than official purposes, such as loaning equipment to local and state governments or nonprofit organizations meeting on government property, is at the discretion of the local commander in accordance with (IAW) Army Regulation (AR) 700-131, AR 735-5 and AR 25-1.The commander is surrounded by common-user systems that provide intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. In order to capitalize on the benefits this new technology offers, the commander must fully grasp the applications, advantages, effects, and limitations of these systems and their products. The same is true in regard to the organic and attached VI assets at the commander's disposal. Commanders at all levels must understand the capabilities and potential uses of VI assets and the far-reaching effects of VI products. As the result of a shrinking military information environment, imagery plays an important role in shaping events; VI products and imagery have the potential to profoundly affect and influence operational success. VIDOC is the process of using motion media, still photography, and audio equipment to acquire audio and visual records of events. VI Soldiers, specifically trained to acquire, process, and transmit imagery and products, collect VIDOC. Resulting VI products include photographs, motion pictures, video recordings, graphic art, visual aids, models, and displays.When processing VIDOC, AR 25-1 mandates that each garrison/location have a single director of information management (DOIM), designated by and established under the garrison commander. The garrison DOIM is responsible for delivering computers and information management common-user baseline services and is the single authority for validating that purchases of information technology resources on the installation comply with Army standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information operations (IO) creates effects in and through the information environment. IO optimizes the information element of combat power and supports and enhances all other elements in order to gain an operational advantage over an enemy or adversary. These effects are intended to influence, disrupt, corrupt or usurp enemy or adversary decision making and everything that enables it, while enabling and protecting friendly decision making. Because IO's central focus is affecting decision making and, by extension, the will to fight, commanders personally ensure IO is integrated into operations from the start

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid progress in information and communications technologies is dramatically enhancing the strategic role of information, positioning effective exploitation of these technology advances as a critical success factor in military affairs. These technology advances are drivers and enablers for the "nervous system" of the militaryâ€"its command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I) systemsâ€"to more effectively use the "muscle" side of the military. Authored by a committee of experts drawn equally from the military and commercial sectors, Realizing the Potential of C4I identifies three major areas as fundamental challenges to the full Department of Defense (DOD) exploitation of C4I technologyâ€"information systems security, interoperability, and various aspects of DOD process and culture. The book details principles by which to assess DOD efforts in these areas over the long term and provides specific, more immediately actionable recommendations. Although DOD is the focus of this book, the principles and issues presented are also relevant to interoperability, architecture, and security challenges faced by government as a whole and by large, complex public and private enterprises across the economy.

The intent of this volume is to employ history to stimulate discussion and analysis of the implications of information operations in future LSCO by exploring past actions, recognizing and understanding successes and failures, and offering some lessons learned from each author's perspective.
Download or read book Threatcasting written by Brian David Johnson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impending technological advances will widen an adversary’s attack plane over the next decade. Visualizing what the future will hold, and what new threat vectors could emerge, is a task that traditional planning mechanisms struggle to accomplish given the wide range of potential issues. Understanding and preparing for the future operating environment is the basis of an analytical method known as Threatcasting. It is a method that gives researchers a structured way to envision and plan for risks ten years in the future. Threatcasting uses input from social science, technical research, cultural history, economics, trends, expert interviews, and even a little science fiction to recognize future threats and design potential futures. During this human-centric process, participants brainstorm what actions can be taken to identify, track, disrupt, mitigate, and recover from the possible threats. Specifically, groups explore how to transform the future they desire into reality while avoiding an undesired future. The Threatcasting method also exposes what events could happen that indicate the progression toward an increasingly possible threat landscape. This book begins with an overview of the Threatcasting method with examples and case studies to enhance the academic foundation. Along with end-of-chapter exercises to enhance the reader’s understanding of the concepts, there is also a full project where the reader can conduct a mock Threatcasting on the topic of “the next biological public health crisis.” The second half of the book is designed as a practitioner’s handbook. It has three separate chapters (based on the general size of the Threatcasting group) that walk the reader through how to apply the knowledge from Part I to conduct an actual Threatcasting activity. This book will be useful for a wide audience (from student to practitioner) and will hopefully promote new dialogues across communities and novel developments in the area.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Cyber Security written by Paul Cornish and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 897 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyber security is concerned with the identification, avoidance, management and mitigation of risk in, or from, cyber space. The risk concerns harm and damage that might occur as the result of everything from individual carelessness, to organised criminality, to industrial and national security espionage and, at the extreme end of the scale, to disabling attacks against a country's critical national infrastructure. However, there is much more to cyber space than vulnerability, risk, and threat. Cyber space security is an issue of strategy, both commercial and technological, and whose breadth spans the international, regional, national, and personal. It is a matter of hazard and vulnerability, as much as an opportunity for social, economic and cultural growth. Consistent with this outlook, The Oxford Handbook of Cyber Security takes a comprehensive and rounded approach to the still evolving topic of cyber security. The structure of the Handbook is intended to demonstrate how the scope of cyber security is beyond threat, vulnerability, and conflict and how it manifests on many levels of human interaction. An understanding of cyber security requires us to think not just in terms of policy and strategy, but also in terms of technology, economy, sociology, criminology, trade, and morality. Accordingly, contributors to the Handbook include experts in cyber security from around the world, offering a wide range of perspectives: former government officials, private sector executives, technologists, political scientists, strategists, lawyers, criminologists, ethicists, security consultants, and policy analysts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyberspace is one of the major bases of the economic development of industrialized societies and developing. The dependence of modern society in this technological area is also one of its vulnerabilities. Cyberspace allows new power policy and strategy, broadens the scope of the actors of the conflict by offering to both state and non-state new weapons, new ways of offensive and defensive operations. This book deals with the concept of "information war", covering its development over the last two decades and seeks to answer the following questions: is the control of the information space really possible remains or she a utopia? What power would confer such control, what are the benefits?
