The two other organizations are a Cyber Talent Management Organization and an Advanced Cyber Training and Education Center.
Spokespeople from the Pentagon and Cyber Command said they had "nothing to announce at this time."
Retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Charlie “Tuna” Moore, former deputy commander of U.S. Cyber Command, called the creation of the innovation cyber a “very good idea and represents the further maturity of the command.”
