Listen to “PROTECTING THE NATION & INFRASTRUCTURE IN CYBERSPACE LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE U.S. ARMY CYBER COMMAND” on Spreaker.

The battles of the future will be fought in cyberspace, one of the most critical and ever-evolving areas of our nation’s defense, with threats facing the country at any hour from around the world. A single breach can quickly impact our daily lives.
Soldiers from the U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) serve at the forefront of this 24/7 operation against cyber threats, defending Army networks, securing Army weapons platforms, protecting critical infrastructure, and obstructing adversaries to protect the nation.
Established in October of 2010, ARCYBER organizes, trains, educates, mans, equips, funds, administers, deploys, and sustains Army cyber forces to conduct cyberspace operations. Just like traditional combat, military operations in cyberspace require intelligence, planning, and the leadership of dedicated people.
ARCYBER is made up of elite warriors – approximately 6,500 Soldiers and 10,000 civilian employees and contract personnel – who provide full-spectrum cyber capabilities in cyber operations and cyber and electronic warfare:
• Cyber Operations Officers are responsible for integrated and synchronized defensive and offensive cyberspace operations by targeting hostile enemy activities and capabilities.
• Cyber Operations Specialists defend the Army’s crucial and complex weapons systems, which include satellites, navigation, and aviation systems against both foreign and domestic cyber threats.
• Cyber and Electronic Warfare Officers conduct and coordinate electronic attacks, facilitate electronic protection, and provide electronic warfare support.
• Cyber and Electronic Warfare Specialists plan and execute electronic warfare operations, using electromagnetic and directed energy to defeat the enemy’s electronic systems.
On Tuesday, October 5th, join Chief Officer Mark Lopez to learn more about the cyber force in the U.S. Army’s operations. He will also explain how the Army is one of the few places where talented technical experts can put their skills to the test against global adversaries, going toe-to-toe daily with malicious hackers.

LEARN ABOUT THE U.S. ARMY CYBER COMMAND
AND ITS ROLE AS THE NATION’S FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE IN CYBERSPACE

Cyberspace is one of the most critical areas of our nation’s defense and is a 24/7 responsibility for Soldiers stationed around the world as part of U.S. Army Cyber Command.
The U.S. Army Cyber Command engages in cyberwarfare against global cyber threats and adversaries, secures the country’s military data networks and weapons platforms, facilitates communications between joint military operations, and protects critical U.S. infrastructure. These elite cyber operators are highly trained to perform under pressure confidently, making them some of the most capable and combat-ready warriors in the U.S. military.
Major Erika Alvarado is a Cyber Operations Planner and Deputy Commander and Training Officer for the U.S. Army Reserve Cyber Protection Brigade – which supports the U.S. Army Cyber Command. In her role, Major Alvarado helps the Army keep pace with rapidly changing cyber capabilities and technologies to protect the country from cyber threats and attacks worldwide.
Major Alvarado enlisted in the Army Reserve at 17-years-old and today is one of the many skilled Army Soldiers serving our nation as the country’s first line of defense in cyberspace.
Cybersecurity is the fastest-growing field in the nation. The Army is well-positioned to train the next generation of cyber experts with opportunities to become analysts, coders, data scientists, and planners for roles in cyber operations, electronic warfare, cryptologic cyber intelligence, and more.
Major Alvarado will be available to discuss the importance of cybersecurity awareness, her role with the U.S. Army Cyber Command, and what it’s like to be engaged in today’s cyberspace fight.
