The recently released U.S. Coast Guard Cyber Strategy is one of a family of strategies that will help drive the service's planning, operations and acquisitions into the next decades. The Cyber Strategy is notable for several reasons, not the least of which is the title. The U.S. Coast Guard has developed a Cyber Strategy; not a Cyber Security Strategy. That is because for the Coast Guard, like most modern organizations, cyber today is about how we operate; how we sense, communicate, direct, control, manage and execute operations and support functions. Cyber security - protecting against attacks or unauthorized access - is just one aspect of how we manage cyber risks and make the most of cyber technologies. Cyber enabled operations require comprehensive cyber operational risk management similar to the management of physical safety, security and environmental risks.
