NAVCOSSACT

NAVCOSSACT, or the Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station San Diego, traces its origins to the growing need for advanced naval communications during the Cold War. Established in the 1960s, NAVCOSSACT became a central hub for the United States Navy's computer systems and telecommunications support, providing critical information technology and cybersecurity services to naval operations worldwide. Over the decades, the unit expanded its mission to include the operation and maintenance of secure networks, satellite communications, and cryptologic support. Today, NAVCOSSACT remains a vital component of the Navy's information warfare capability, ensuring reliable and secure communications for fleet and shore commands.
