I have been hunting for information on the abominable “DoDD 8140”. Â Some say that it does not exist, but you can see its footprints all over the InterWebs:
The DoDD 8140 (DoDD 8570.1 replacement) is in staffing (administrative and format correction by the DoD then legal review then for signature by the SecDef or DepSecDef. Tentative completion and release date 1st Qtr. FY 15 . The workforce manuals will stem from the signed DoDD 8140 -Â Army CIO/G6, Cyber Security Directorate Training and Certification Newsletter 1 September 2014

DoDD 8140 - What We Know – Expands 8570 Concept from Information Assurance Personnel Only To Entire “Cyberspace Workforce†– Umbrella Program – Intent is For The 8570 Matrix to Remain The Same – Will Use NICE (National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education) Framework and “Other Plans and Policies†for job skills/functions/tasks – isc2chapter-middlega.org
Initial draft 8140 Directive in formal coord • Policies under the DoDD 8140 to cover the entire Cyberspace Workforce • IT/Cybersecurity • Cyberspace Operations (Engagement) • Intelligence Workforce (Cyberspace) • Leverage existing plans and policies: • NICE; DoD CWF; CW Strategy • JCT&CS • Total force manpower process (DoDI 1100.22) • Apply lessons learned from workforce studies and 8570 implementation - isc2chapter-middlega.org
Lack of Standard DoD CS/ITWF-Related Procedures. DON CIO personnel informed us that the Navy did not comprehensively define the overall CS/ITWF or develop a CS/ITWF personnel database because they were waiting for DoD to issue its guidance. We were told that DoD was drafting Directive 8140.aa, “Cyberspace Workforce Management,†reissuing and renumbering DoD Directive 8570.01, “Information Assurance Training, Certification, and Workforce Management,†updating and expanding policies, and assigning responsibilities for managing the DoD workforce performing cyberspace functions. - Cyberspace/Information Technology Skill Sets for Active Duty Military Personnel at Selected Navy Commands Â
In reference to changes to the IP Officer course, the expected date of implementation is May 2016. For the more immediate mitigation efforts, N2/N6 responses are predicated on DON CIO’s update to Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) Instruction 5239 along with the release of the DoDD 8140.aa. Once these documents have been promulgated (estimated date of completion in September 2014), OPNAV N2/N6 will release a Naval Administrative Message (NAVADMIN) that will direct the fleet to these changes and ensure implementation of all directives and instructions. Estimated release date for the NAVADMIN will be May 2015. - Cyberspace/Information Technology Skill Sets for Active Duty Military Personnel at Selected Navy Commands Â
