text: Integration through the Operations Process
  * Drafting the Joint Tactical Air Request for airborne EA and other necessary EW requesting forms,
  if required.
  * Open communications with the higher command to receive updates on whether anticipated
  cyberspace attack and EA-related targets have been validated and added to the JTF headquarters’
  joint target list.
  * Discussing cyberspace and EW-related risk that the commander will use to make risk
  determinations.
  * Determining the level of authorities for the engaging targets using cyberspace and electromagnetic
  attacks.
  4-70. During the decide function, the targeting working group identifies target restrictions that prohibit or
  restrict cyberspace attacks or EA on specified targets without approval from higher authorities. The sources of
  these restrictions include military risk, the law of war, rules of engagement, or other considerations. The JTF
  annotates entities within the AO prohibited from attack on the no-strike list and targets with restrictions on the
  restricted target list.
  Detect
  4-71. The detect function of the targeting process is the second step of the targeting process; during this step
  ES capabilities or other target acquisition assets locate and track a specified target to the required level of
  accuracy in time and space. During the detect function, the G-2 or S-2 coordinates with the targeting working
  group in developing the information collection plan. Before conducting the deliver function, the targeting team
  must establish measures of performance and measures of effectiveness for cyberspace and electromagnetic
  attacks to ensure they meet the commander’s objectives.
  4-72. The targeting working group focuses on the surveillance effort by identifying named areas of interest
  and target areas of interest integrated into the information collection plan. Named areas of interest are typically
  selected to capture indications of adversary courses of action but may be related to conditions of the OE.
  4-73. The targeting working group identifies HPTs during planning and war-gaming. Target areas of interest
  that require specific engagements using cyberspace attack or EA capabilities differ from engagement areas. An
  engagement area is an area of concentration where a commander employs all available weapons to engage a
  target. In contrast, a target area of interest engagement uses a specific weapons system to engage a target.
  During the detect function, the CEMA section conducts the following actions–
  * Provides cyberspace and EW-related IRs to determine HPTs that, when validated by the
  commander, are added to the priority intelligence requirement.
  * Tasks EW assets, when required, to conduct electromagnetic reconnaissance to support
  information collection.
  * Updates cyberspace attack and EA-related HVTs and HPTs.
  * Determines if identified targets can be affected using OCO or EA (or both), and what type of EA
  capability can create the desired effect
  Note. The CEMA section alone cannot determine the type of cyberspace attack capability to use
  on targets. The CEMA section must coordinate with higher headquarters CEMA staff and
  appropriate joint cyberspace entities to develop an understanding of availability, feasibility, and
  suitability of specific cyberspace capabilities.
  * Advocating for the nomination of cyberspace attack and EA-related targets to the JTF
  headquarters’ joint integrated prioritized target list and the joint targeting cycle.
  * Developing the RFS for OCO support.
  Deliver
  4-74. The deliver function of the targeting process executes the target engagement guidance and supports
  the commander’s battle plan upon confirmation of the location and identity of HPTs. Close coordination
  between the CEMA section, intelligence, and fires support element is critical when detecting targets and
