The growing need for computer network defense is critical to the ability of the U.S. military to conduct operations, but there is no general understanding or or agreement on the meaning of the term. The first step in building a consensus is to gain a common view of how information has grown into a critical component that directly affects the conduct of military operations. Given discussions about the concepts of network warfare and cyberspace, the U.S. military needs is a framework for describing cyberspace and computer network defense. One analogy is that of airspace management, in which the roles and responsibilities of the Federal Aviation Administration, NORAD, and the National Weather Service in managing and protecting airspace provide a framework for describing the roles and responsibilities of network operation centers, network defense centers, and the Defense Information Systems Agency in managing and protecting cyberspace. With this construct, the operations, intelligence, and communications communities within the U.S. Air Force will be able to coordinate their efforts to improve computer network defense in an age when the U.S. military depends on information for the conduct of military operations.
