Katherine Flattery is one of the architects of the U.S. Navy's 45,000-person Information Dominance Corps (IDC), the civilians and active-duty personnel who run the service's networks, conduct information warfare, analyze intelligence and study the Earth's oceans. The Navy established the corps in November 2009 to better prepare for cyberwarfare and the advent of unmanned aircraft. To manage the corps and its billions of dollars worth of intelligence and networking equipment, the Navy merged its Washington, D.C.-based intelligence management staff, called N2, with its networking staff, N6, to form a new 600-person organization called N2/N6.
