A command and control approach to red teaming

This thesis studies the requirements for a cyber command and control (C3) and conducts an experiment to test whether a C3 approach to red teaming helps users find more vulnerabilities. Since red teaming is similar in setting to the cyber operations setting, if the team finds that a C3 helps team members find more vulnerabilities, then a C3 environment can help the military better respond to cyber attacks. As a result of the experiment, the control team and the team using the C3 tied. However, participants surveyed indicated that using a C3 environment was more helpful than not using the C3 environment.</p> Dr. David Dampier Dr. Robert Wesley McGrew Dr. Byron J.
