Focused Operation
Focused Operation (FO) is a term that originated from DHS (Department of Homeland Security). In the world of cyber security the focused operation group deals with advanced intrusion particularly Advanced Persistent Threats. The focus of its work is unique compared to the normal operation of SOC (Security Operation Center). FO tasks include providing cyber counterintelligence, cyber forensic, malware reverse engineering, infrastructure improvement, and other tasks that provide advanced cyber security service and solutions.

The treats that FO deal with are not from cyber criminals (e.g. RBN), but rather threats that are generated from actors/adversary that are state sponsored. Foreign actors particularly China is the biggest contribution to cyber espionage against the United States Government and military contractors.
