Staff Sgt. Sean Sarich an innovation laboratory specialist at Marine Innovation Unit works on his network hacking plans during Cyber Yankee 22 on Camp Nett, Connecticut, June 13, 2022. During Cyber Yankee service members are divided up into red teams and blue teams. All participating Marines are part of the red team. The red team acts as an attacking force while the blue team tries to defend their network. The Reserve Marines from MIU also played an important role in Cyber Yankee 2022 and plans to continue to support exercises like this to bring in extra talent and subject matter expertise from the cyber and developmental support. MIU leverages existing Marine talent to address advanced technology challenges in order to accelerate the development of new capabilities. MIU houses coders who have the potential to bring a new skill set to the exercise.
