Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey released the Joint Operational Access Concept, a framework that describes how to gain entry and maintain access anywhere and in any domain: land, air, space, sea and cyber.

“The JOAC outlines how we will confront emerging Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) threats by state and non-state enemies across the globe. A2/AD is not new, but it is a defining characteristic of today’s operational environment. Confronting this challenge will require more integration—across all domains and at all echelons—than ever before,” said Dempsey.
