Joint Information Activities Group (JIAG) 

The JIAG provides specialist Information activities training, operational delivery capability and capacity building for defence, and other government departments.

Joint Information Activities Group (JIAG) provides specialist information activities training and operational delivery capability for defence, and other government departments, through the provision of subject matter experts in direct support of contingent and enduring operations and collective training exercises.

JIAG stood up on full operating capability, 1 April 13, by the bringing together of the Defence Media Operations Centre (DMOC) and the Joint Information Operations Training and Advisory Team (JIOTAT) under an OF5 commanding officer. Although under a single organisation the two elements remain distinct, whilst concurrently maximising the synergies in the IA environment.

The major outputs include:

• ·         delivery of information activities training for media and information operations personnel
• ·         supporting defence and other government departments through the provision of expert advice and operational capability
• ·         direct support to operations and collective training exercises
• ·         development and exploitation of information activities synergies to deliver operational capability, good governance and value for money
