National Guard

Overview
The National Guard is

"a force with dual state and federal roles. National Guard forces have expertise in critical response functions and many also have expertise and capabilities in cyber activities. At the direction of a State Governor and Adjutant General, the National Guard may perform state missions, including supporting civil authorities in response to a cyber incident. In certain circumstances, as permitted by law, the National Guard may be requested to perform federal service or be ordered to active duty to perform DoD missions, which could include supporting a federal agency in response to a cyber incident.""
