ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Special Operations Command is working to ensure that its hyper-enabled operator concept will be “cyber secure,†a top science and technology official said Oct. 23.
In 2018, the command announced an initiative to enhance its warfighters with technologies that would provide them capabilities such as improved situational awareness.
Now, in an era when adversaries are building up their electronic warfare abilities, the command is examining how it can safely field these technologies with a cyber-secure network, said Lisa Sanders, the director of science and technology for Special Operations Forces, acquisition, technology and logistics.
