The Office of Naval Acquisition Support was established to create acquisition support for functions that span across Commands, and that require a degree of independence in their operations.
In 2009, the Information Warfare Community, originally known as the Information Dominance Corps, was created within the U.S. Navy to more effectively and collaboratively lead and manage officers, enlisted, and civilian professionals who possess extensive skills in information-intensive related fields.
NAVIFOR was originally established on Oct. 1, 2014, as Information Dominance Forces Command.
NAVIFOR is the global readiness-focused type command responsible for organizing, manning, training and equipping, and identifying requirements for all information warfare (IW) capabilities.
