The CSIS Commission on U.S. Cyber Force Generation convened senior defense, technology, and national security experts over 10 months to examine how the United States can best organize and sustain a dedicated cyber service. As cyber threats increase in scale and sophistication, the commission evaluated structural, operational, and workforce challenges facing the current cyber ecosystem, including talent shortages, fragmented authorities, and barriers to readiness.
Through research, expert engagement, and public events, the commission has produced a report on key findings and recommendations on force structure, recruitment, training, retention, and operational integration. The report provides policymakers with a practical roadmap for strengthening U.S. cyber capabilities and ensuring long-term readiness in a contested domain increasingly central to national security.
This project is a production of the CSIS Commission on U.S. Cyber Force Generation.
