Established on May 21. 2010, the U.S. Cyber Command achieved its full operational capability(FOC) in 2018 and becomes the united combat command. USCYBERCOM uses 133 cyber missions teams to perform its mission. The cyber mission team is organized into a national mission team(13), a cyber protection team(68), a combat mission team(27), and a support team(25). And USCYBERCOM accepts the concept of ‘Defence Forward’ to carry out its mission. Forward defense is an effort to prevent enemy attacks in the early stages by physically deploying them abroad against enemy cyber activities and is an active way to cooperate with allies. Recently, the United States plans to add 14 “space operations teams” to its 133 cyber mission teams to support combatant commanders in space operations. Protecting the nation, the lives and property of its people in cyberspace is an important task for those in charge of national defense. This study analyzes the mission, role, and recent activities of USCYBERCOM, which is responsible for the cyber domain of national defense, to contribute to improving our nation’s cyber warfare capabilities.
