DPU Soldiers conduct cyber defense exercise - Sept. 15, 2012

Soldiers from the Fairfax-based Data Processing Unit conduct a computer network defense exercise Sept. 15 in Fairfax. The exercise used different cyber scenarios of varying difficulty in order to evaluate the proficiency levels of the unit's Soldiers in computer network defense and was also designed for senior leaders to evaluate the effectiveness of cyber warfare training provided during the 2012 fiscal year. The scenarios were administered by unit facilitators concurrently over an eight-hour period during the DPU’s scheduled drill.
