Construct and describe your implementation approach for specifically (a) defense of U.S. critical infrastructure as outlined on page 2 under "Defend the Naton", along with (b) all of

"Protect the Cyber Domain with Allies and Partners."1 At a minimum, leverage course material on phases of cyber operations, CNE, intelligence, mission planning, anonymity/attribution, and perception management in your proposed plan.

• Part 2: Describe the challenges with legal authorities and ethics in carrying out your implementation plan from Part 1.
• Part 3: Now take the adversary's perspective. Consider the section "Transnational Criminal Organizations" (page 5) as your adversary focus.' How would they counter the implementation strategy you propose? What are the major weaknesses that exist? How would you propose leveraging additional intelligence to mitigate the threats? Are there still significant risks?
  Describe in detail with references both to the 2023 DoD Cyber Strategy and outside resources.
• Part 4: From the "Contested Cyberspace" Section of the 2023 DoD Cyber Strategy, select a major cyber adversary described (PRC, Russia, North Korea, Iran). Construct and describe an implementation approach to succeed in "Disrupting] and Degrad[ing] Malicious Cyber Actors" from page 6 with an eye toward your selected adversary. Again, at a minimum, leverage course material on phases of cyber operations, CNE, intelligence, mission planning, anonymity/attribution, and perception management in your proposed plan.
• Part 5: Describe the challenges with legal authorities and ethics in carrying out your implementation plan from Part 4.
• Part 6. Now take your selected adversary's perspective. How would they counter the implementation strategy you propose? What are the major weaknesses in your proposed implementation? What counter-counter-operations would you suggest mitigating this newly identified operational risk? Consider all material so far (e.g. intelligence, perception management, attribution, etc.) in your response.
