Cyberspace Defense Analysis (CDA) U S Air Force

This book pulls together 5 key Air Force publications on Cyberspace Defense Analysis (CDA), Risk Management Framework (RMF), and Information Dominance and Management. These publications cover guidelines for planning and conducting cyberspace operations to support the warfighter and achieve national security objectives. AFI 17-2CDA outlines Initial Qualification Training (IQT) requirements for all crewmember personnel, Mission Qualification Training (MQT) and Upgrade and Specialized Training as well as Continuation Training. It provides procedures, evaluation and grading criteria used during performance evaluations on operational cyberspace weapon systems. It provides governing directives and prescribes procedures for operating the CDA weapon system. AFM 17-101 provides implementation instructions for the Risk Management Framework (RMF) methodology for Air Force Information Technology according to AFPD 17-1, and AFI 17-130. AFPD 17-1 provides a means by which the AF will cross-functionally align cyberspace programs and capabilities to effectively and efficiently deliver capabilities to users. Cyberspace is defined as a global domain within the information environment consisting of the interdependent network of IT infrastructures and resident data, including the Internet, telecommunications networks, computer systems, and embedded processors and controllers. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this so you don't have to. When a new standard is released, an engineer prints it out, punches holes and puts it in a 3-ring binder. While this is not a big deal for a 5 or 10-page document, many cyber documents are over 100 pages and printing a large document is a time-consuming effort. So, an engineer that's paid $75 an hour is spending hours simply printing out the tools needed to do the job. That's time that could be better spent doing engineering. We publish these documents so engineers can focus on what they were hired to do - engineering.
