Data Management. The process of planning, coordinating, sharing, and controlling
organizations’ data resources (AFPD 33-3, Information Management).
Direct Reporting Unit (DRU). Air Force subdivisions directly subordinate to the CSAF.
A DRU performs a mission that does not fit into any of the MAJCOMs. A DRU has many
of the same administrative and organizational responsibilities as a MAJCOM (Example of
a DRU: USAF Academy).
Document Management. The process of managing documents through their life cycle, from inception
through creation, review, storage, dissemination, and archival or deletion. Document management can
also be a database system to organize stored documents, or a search mechanism to quickly find specific
documents. (AFPD 33-3)
DoD Cyber Workforce Framework (DCWF). DCWF is derived from the National
Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Workforce Framework and Joint Cyberspace
Training & Certification Standards. It provides a mechanism to categorize, organize, and
describe cyber work and reflects collaborative efforts among government, private industry,
and academia. It establishes a standard lexicon of cyber work roles, classifies the duties and
skill requirements of Department cyber work force (military, civilian, and contractors), and
is the foundation for developing qualification requirements. More info can be found at the

The DoD Directive 8140.01 “Cyberspace Workforce Management.” Reissues,
renumbers, and cancels DoD Directive (DoDD) 8570.01 to update and expand established
policies and assigned responsibilities for managing the DoD cyberspace workforce. The
DoD 8570.01-M governing the IA workforce certification program still in effect. It
authorizes establishment of a DoD Cyberspace Workforce Management Board (CWMB) as
the governing body to ensure that the requirements of this issuance are met. Establishes the
DoD Cyberspace Workforce Framework (DCWF) as the authoritative reference for the
identification, tracking, and reporting of DoD cyberspace positions and foundation for
developing enterprise baseline cyberspace workforce qualifications. Unifies the overall
cyberspace workforce and establishes specific workforce elements (e.g., information
technology (IT), cybersecurity, cyberspace effects, intelligence, and enablers) to align and
manage the cyberspace workforce under the CWMB. In light of the issuance of DoD
Directive 8140.01, there are ongoing changes to the qualification manuals for the cyber
workforce. More info can be found at the following link: https://public.cyber.mil/wid/

storing, disseminating, and managing information on demand to warfighters, policy makers,
and support personnel. The DoDIN includes all owned and leased communications and
computing systems and services, software (including applications), data, security services,
