When it comes to cyber security and the military many would think that they would be developed. Though this goes to show that the different branches within the military are more advanced than others. As the military has developed we have seen just how important it is that the military adjusts to information security and how it can effect every level of security. It it believe that the warfare will no longer be only physical but both physical and through cyber attacks. Through past wars we have had information always gave the side the advantage no matter the size of the military. Information can allow for the opposing side to advance on the mitigations that they have been informed of and now can get into systems that can lead to other important systems. Today this is a way that we have seen many times, where a hacker gets in through some hole in a companies security where they did not account for and be able to dig deeper to capture data that was not supposed to be given up. When we think of training in the military many of our brains go straight to the physical aspect and whether or not the body of the person going in can handle it. Nowadays, it is whether or not their mental fortitude can withstand it. Meaning, the training they go through will not only test them on their physical abilities but rather if they can decipher whether they are being involved in a cyber attack or not. This is mainly because every fight today is involved with some sort of cyber warfare, where one side is trying to pry information from the other or trying to start some type of conflict by taking down some sort of infrastructure.
