Abstract:

This paper provides Air Force Space Command AFSPC suggestions on cyber protection and theory. First, AFSPC must instill a sense of cybermindedness to all network-based resource users. This includes daily actions and in-processingout-processing events. Secondly, AFSPC must lead the charge to establish a common naming convention for all cyber resources, thus promoting a familiarity with capabilities as in the air, land, sea, and space environments. Next, AFSPC must conduct a study leading to the formation of a cyber standard model, similar to the standard atmosphere model used in aviation. Specifically, AFSPC needs to study the establishment of a test and evaluation standard model for cyber networks
