<p>The Air Force has established an organization to address cyberspace because of its potential effects on core missions and capabilities. RAND has been helping clarify certain details. Among the observations made here are the need for concrete missions and tasks and appropriate strategies, as well as capable personnel to carry them out. But to &ldquo;fly and fight in cyberspace,&rdquo; the Air Force will also need to address creating effects in cyberspace.</p>

<p>The Air Force is creating a formal organization dedicated to cyberspace capabilities. This organization would provide combat-ready forces trained and equipped to conduct sustained offensive and defensive global operations in and through cyberspace that are fully integrated with air and space operations. This documented briefing identifies and analyzes the human capital management issues associated with the creation of a cyber force.</p>
