Two specific emerging challenges are among those that concern Navy Adm. Mike Rogers, commander of U.S. Cyber Command and director of the National Security Agency. The challenges are a potential inability to trust financial and other data due to manipulation by adversaries, and the disregard of some nonstate actors for connectivity and other staples of daily life in many parts of the world. Rogers joined Marcel Lettre, acting undersecretary of defense for intelligence, and others in a recent panel on cyberwar during the recent annual Reagan National Defense Forum held in Simi Valley, California. From a military perspective, Rogers said to the audience of government and industry leaders, data manipulation through network intrusion is probably his No. 1 concern. Reflecting Reality “As a military commander, I’m used to the idea that I can walk into a darkened space with a lot of sensors coming together and look at a visual image that uses color, geography and symbology, and quickly assimilate what’s going on and make very quick tactical decisions,” Rogers said.
