Defensive Cyberspace Operations (DCO) provide defensive cyber capabilities that protect USSF mission system networks, to include their associated computer systems, software applications and sensitive operational information against unauthorized intrusion, corruption, and/or exploitation.

Resilient cyberspace architecture is a key to USSF system security. USSF cyber operators must provide mission assurance of the critical networks and systems they protect, in an increasingly contested, congested, and degraded environment.
