US Army Cyber Commander Takes Charge

The US Army's component of the new Cyber Command has assumed command of the agency.

The Department of the Army announced today that Maj. Gen. Rhett A. Hernandez assumed command of U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) during a ceremony held at Fort Belvoir, Va.

Army Cyber Command is the Army’s service component to U.S. Cyber Command, a sub-unified command under U.S. Strategic Command. Army Cyber Command’s mission is to plan, coordinate, integrate, synchronize, direct, and conduct network operations and defense of all Army networks. When directed, ARCYBER will conduct cyberspace operations in support of full spectrum operations to ensure U.S. and allied freedom of action in cyberspace, and to deny the same to adversaries.
