What is the Kind of Training in ATCTS Army?

Here is the training that is required for the cybersecurity workforce in ATCTS Army:

  • Before and after getting the annual training, the personnel of ATCTS must complete Cybersecurity Awareness training.
  • Before going to war environments, all cybersecurity workforce must follow the training and be certified.
  • The personnel has to keep getting the appropriate certification with the highest level according to the required positions.
  • All IT service contracts must state that the contractor’s personnel must get proper certification and the basic environment computation.
  • Cybersecurity members with special access to information systems must be appointed, trained, and certified as IA Technical I-III.
  • All personnel of the cybersecurity team must have a new appointing assignment that shows their category and cybersecurity level. And for IAT I-III members, the assignment must describe their scope, function, and responsibilities.

The workforce that does not meet the requirements will get the two treatments. Firstly, DoD will reassign them to other jobs according to the recent law.

Secondly, until they get the certification, the personnel that does not meet the requirements can still do the duties under certified surveillance personnel properly. Exception qualification requirements have been terminated because of operational and personnel constraints.
