The future military will work in a different way altogether, and it will need a lot more chips...not just for a few new toys, but to enable a paradigm shift in how every operation is carried out...
Q: What should every entry-level service member to service chief understand about cyberwarfare at their level?
A: Every E-1 should know that they are sensors, not just shooters. Every sensitive site exploitation can create an opportunity for information. Also, everyone is an emitter. Your smartphone’s probably got 20 [different] apps on it to say where you are. Information Mission Control is absolutely necessary. Realize that everybody is in the information age. Military organizations are sensor organizations, not just shooting organizations. The business of sensing is complemented by realizing that every individual on some level is an emitter of information.
Mid-career military members don’t need to be computer geeks but need to understand themselves as information managers. Make sense of all this information. What’s relevant to the situation that I am facing?
At higher levels, G1+ must make sure to connect those sensor and information links with issues of advanced organization and doctrine. And create the nextAirLand Battle.
