Session 3: Enduring Cyberspace Operations Command and Control Framework

Session 4: Mission Network as the New Joint, Coalition Norm

Session 5: Multinational Information Sharing

Session 6: Enduring Network Operational Assessment Framework



UNCLASSIFIED


Synopsis: The Combined Enterprise Regional Information Exchange System-International Security Assistance Force (CENTRIXS ISAF) network is consistently perceived as a unique, niche requirement for the current fight in Afghanistan and not as the new joint, coalition norm. This misperception hinders the development of appropriate joint, coalition doctrine.

Key Outcomes: This session will create awareness of the critical operational imperative that drove the establishment of the CENTRIXS ISAF network as well as the role Services and Agencies must play to resource this critical operational capability.

Afghanistan Mission Network (AMN) A federated network consisting of national extensions established to provide dataflow/information across national boundaries, with ISAF Secret as the AMN core.

CENTRIXS ISAF US contribution to AMN, a single “mission” network that enables the exchange of information between ISAF and US forces and enables those critical combat enablers that support the CJOA-A.



UNCLASSIFIED


The CENTRIXS ISAF Operational Assessment (OA) report provides context, lessons, and recommendations

Combination of CENTRIXS ISAF and OA recommendations provides a credible template for an enduring mission network

UNCLASSIFIED


A CENTRIXS ISAF-like network to support coalition, joint command and control on little-to-no notice, in support of ad-hoc coalition task organizations that enable all phases of operations.

“The United States likely will continue to conduct war fighting and humanitarian operations in coalition environments… CENTRIXS ISAF, or a next-generation variant, almost certainly will be utilized in tandem with those mission networks in all future coalition operations.” – July 2011 Army Posture Statement


COMISAF strongly endorsed AMN as “the new norm and the right model for a future coalition network”

UNCLASSIFIED


Must start with command and control requirements and the operational imperative, not technical details

Requires affirmative DoD position

•Coalition warfighting and the mission network that enables it are the new norm

•Coalition data/application interoperability must be baked into Service/Agency materiel solutions

Joint Staff J-8 agreed to lead concept development, in coordination with Combatant Commands, Services, and Agencies



UNCLASSIFIED


Governance •Essential organizational structures, standards and processes

•Operationally-aligned

•Supported by holistic capability planning

Information Sharing •Enables a true coalition fight

•Classification discipline is essential

•Balance “need to know” & “need to share, write for release”

Training •The level of complexity in the coalition environment

demands a rehearsal framework in pre-deployment training



UNCLASSIFIED


Ensure mission network is part of the posture going into campaign operations – ready on little-to-no notice

Ensure processes for acquisition, development and sustainment of materiel solutions support a coalition mission network norm

Commit to appropriate manning, equipping and training to support coalition mission network as the new norm

Ensure efforts to define a mission network “template” start with command and control requirements and operational imperative

Ensure the future mission network template accounts for perspectives of commanders at the task force, regional and national level
