Popis: There has been a growing need for military decision-makers to maintain the integrity of the information contained within their computer network. Tools to support Information Assurance and Computer Network Defense (IA-CND) are needed to defend their information infrastructure and conduct Computer Network Operations with a new level of insight and understanding. This paper describes one effort to develop visualizations to aid these decision-makers in the highly abstract, complex and dynamic mission of IA-CND. This paper describes the development of a IA-CND Communications Display. Using a Cognitive Systems Engineering methodology, this project transitioned from a broad description of a work domain, to the development of decision aiding concepts for a particular portion of that domain. This methodology also provided a means to develop breakthrough support for a decision difficult domain.
