US allocates nearly $1 billion for cyber w​ar training

The United States has signed a contract with Cole Engineering Services worth more than $957 million, according to which Washington will receive a platform for the education and training of cyber troops, writes Krasnaya Vesna.

Cole Engineering Services develops cyberspaces using the latest “virtualization and containerization” technologies and data center deployment and operations.

Almost a billion dollars are expected to be spent on training troops through the platform used by the Cole Engineering Service and developing a new system architecture for training cyber troops.

“Based on the lessons learned over the previous couple of years and the experience gained at the expense of considerable operational efforts, we now recognize that we need information operations capabilities. And this refers to the issues of information warfare. This is our current alignment”, said the head of the US Army Cyber ​​Command, Lieutenant General Stephen Fogarty.
