Special Activities and Intelligence Program
Special Activities and Intelligence conducts analyses that help decision-makers integrate cyber, special operations and intelligence into fleet operations. CNA has played an active role in the reconstruction of real-world cyber incidents, the employment of cyber protection teams, and the extraction of operational value from intelligence feeds. We also support efforts to integrate artificial intelligence and autonomous capabilities, crafting policies and procedures to guide their development and bridging the technology gap between defense and industry.
