  Decide
  4-69. The decide function is the first step of the targeting process. It begins with the military decision-making
  process and continues throughout an operation. The CEMA section conducts the following actions during the
  decide function of targeting––
  * Threat cyberspace and EW-related capabilities and characteristics during target value analysis to
  identify high-value targets. A high-value target is a target the enemy commander requires for the
  successful completion of the mission (JP 3-60).
  * Identifying potential cyberspace and EW-related HPTs. A high-payoff target is a target whose loss
  to the enemy will significantly contribute to the success of the friendly course of action (JP 3-60).
  A high-payoff target is a high-value target that must be acquired and successfully engaged for the
  success of the commander’s mission.
  * Specific targets that should be acquired and engaged using a cyberspace attack or EA capability
  and established target selection standards.
  * Location and time that targets are likely to be found through intelligence operations and how long
  the target will remain fixed.
  * Surveillance, reconnaissance, and target acquisition objectives for targets receiving cyberspace
  attacks or EA and determining if the unit has the necessary cyberspace attack or EA capabilities
  to deliver appropriate effects.
  * Cyberspace and EMS-related IRs essential to the targeting effort.
  * When, where, and with what priority should the targets be engaged, and what cyberspace attack
  or EA capability to employ for effects.
  * The level of effectiveness that constitutes a successful cyberspace attack or EA and if the
  engagement achieved the commander’s objective.
  * If a cyberspace attack or EA can affect a target, and how and what type of cyberspace attack or
  EA can create the desired effect.
  * How to obtain the information needed to assess a cyberspace attack or EA to determine success
  or failure, and who will receive and process it.
  * Who will be the decision-making authority to determine the success or failure of a cyberspace
  attack or EA?
  * What contingency action will occur if a cyberspace attack or EA is unsuccessful, and who has the
  authority to direct those actions?
  * Identifying the unit’s EW assets available for tasking and begin drafting FRAGOS.
  * Drafting the RFS for OCO support to meet targeting requirements.
  * Collaborating with units at higher, lower, and adjacent echelons for EW support to satisfy
