Cryptology in the Navy Reserve combines two related skills --
cryptography and cryptanalysis. Cryptography is the area of disguising
communications to protect them. Cryptanalysis is the art of deciphering
the coded communications of others.
Navy Reserve Information Warfare Officers are trained in the Navy
Reserve Security Group to operate and maintain specialized electronic
equipment such as radio receivers, antennas, recorders and computers.
Annual Training assignments can be at Naval Security Group sites in the
United States or overseas and the National Security Agency.

Bachelor's or postgraduate degree from an accredited college in
Mathematics, Electronics, Physics or calculus-based Computer Science.
Prior service or experience as a Cryptologic Technician a huge plus.

granted for prior military service.

available for family members if not US citizens). Applicants must
successfully complete a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI).
