Channel: U.S. Navy
Date: 2013-04-22

U.S. Fleet Cyber Command serves as the (1) Navy Component Command to U.S. Strategic Command and U.S. Cyber Command, providing operational employment of the Navy's cyber, network operations, information operations, cryptologic, and space forces and (2) Navy's Service Cryptologic Component commander to the National Security Agency/Central Security Service. Fleet Cyber Command is an echelon 2 command reporting to the Chief of Naval Operations for administrative and service related matters.

TENTH Fleet (C10F) is the operational arm of Fleet Cyber Command and executes its mission set through the same maritime warfighting organizations and mechanisms that the Navy uses in other warfighting domains. That is, C10F is a three-star numbered fleet that provides operational oversight and uses its Maritime Operations Center to execute command and control over its assigned forces and subordinate Task Forces.  These Task Forces are organized to execute the actions necessary to support the Combatant or Joint Force Commander within their assigned mission sets of cyber/networks, information operations, electronic warfare, signals intelligence, and space.

The backbone of this cyber capability is a motivated work force of uniformed and civilian teammates who are the foundation of the Navy's efforts in the cyber domain.
