CYBERCOM Activities
This program provides the foundational engineering, analytic rigor, and IT development required for U.S. Cyber Command to plan, direct, and synchronize full spectrum cyberspace operations. These investments underpin the nation’s ability to defend critical infrastructure, impose costs on adversaries in cyberspace, and ensure the Joint Force can operate with confidence in a contested digital environment.
• Joint Warfighting Analysis Center (JCWA) PEO Transition & Governance: Finalize the transition of Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) authorities to the newly established JCWA Program Executive Office (PEO). Execute statutory requirements outlined in Section 1509 of the FY 2023 NDAA, shifting from process development to full…
Read the FY2027 plan →FY2027 planned work The focus on completing the final stages of development for key technologies while continuing the strategic drawdown of RDT&E investments in favor of increased O&M appropriations. This reflects the successful maturation of major initiatives and the transition of cloud computing, cybersecurity, and enterprise IT capabilities into sustained operational use, ensuring long term support, optimization, and lifecycle management under O&M funding.
FY2026 to FY2027 change The funding increase between FY 2026 and FY 2027 reflects an inflationary adjustment.
FY2026 plans — current year • As USCYBERCOM transitions key research and development initiatives into full operational use, FY 2026 RDT&E resources will focus on completing final development stages for priority technologies while strategically scaling down RDT&E investments in favor of increased O&M appropriations. This shift reflects the successful maturation of critical efforts—particularly in cloud computing, cybersecurity, and enterprise architecture—that are now entering sustained operational phases. • Execute a deliberate transition strategy to maximize the value of prior RDT&E investments, reallocating resources to maintain and enhance these capabilities throughout their operational lifecycle. This approach…
FY2025 accomplishments Funding for USCYBERCOM IT supports the continuation of efforts providing engineering and cybersecurity support for new IT requirements analysis, design, planning and implementation of IT solutions. These include implementing centralized security and monitoring capabilities for the Command’s dynamic multi-cloud and on-premise network environment spanning across classification levels. FY 2025 funding also supports incorporating DevSecOps frameworks, tools and enforcement mechanisms into cloud infrastructure environments and IT system development processes, to include prototyping and development of automated Authority to Operate (ATO) capabilities to support rapid accreditation of mission…
