Marine Corps Perspective on Enhanced Warfighting Technologies Overview: The mission of the Marine Corps includes warfighting “from the sea” as well as land based operations. As a result, new technologies are constantly needed to support operations in all domains – air, land, sea, space, and cyber. Cyber Operations, in particular, present a variety of challenges for both the Corps and all other elements of the Department of Defense. General Crall has unique qualifications to discuss these challenges as a distinguished operational leader in the Marine Corps and, now, a senior policy leader in the Department. He is tasked to find solutions to these challenges in his position as the Deputy Principal Cyber Advisor to the Secretary of Defense. Speaker: |
