These threats have direct and significant implications for our operational readiness, with the potential to affect our ability to fight and win in a cyber-contested environment. To ensure we remain ready to defend our Nation, our information systems must deliver secure, interoperable, and effective mission performance during peacetime and sustained combat operations.<\/p>\n<p>Every day, our adversaries seek to exploit vulnerabilities in the systems you rely on to execute our national security objectives. It\u2019s our responsibility to identify and reduce those vulnerabilities. Whether you\u2019re operating ships, submarines, or shore-based infrastructure, understanding the cyber risks within our systems and actively working to mitigate them is essential. We must always remain vigilant, reporting any cyber threats we encounter and acting quickly to neutralize them.<\/p>\n<p>Our greatest strength in this fight is our people \u2013 you are our true secret weapon. Our Sailors and Navy civilians are our most valuable assets in defending against cyber threats, and it\u2019s up to each of us to contribute. \u00a0By practicing good cyber hygiene, continually educating ourselves on emerging threats, and empowering our shipmates with the knowledge and tools they need, we fortify our collective defense.<\/p>\n<p>Every day each of us stands as the first line of defense in protecting our Nation\u2019s critical information systems and networks. Whether at home, at work, or while deployed, the choices we make online can have far-reaching impacts on our Navy\u2019s readiness and operational security.<\/p>\n<p>I urge all of you to stay vigilant and stay informed on the evolving cyber landscape.
