CAP Directives, Regulations and guidelines are found in CAPR 20-1, CAPR 120-1 and CAPP 227.

Below are some of the tasks derived from these regulations:

• Manage and direct Information Technology related activities

• Ensure OPSEC, and INFOSEC training is performed across the Wing

• Develop and implement Wing IT policies to support CAP mission

• Enforce Wing/Region/Unit website compliance based on CAP NHQ guidance

The Alabama Wing uses Microsoft Office 365 or O365 for cloud based storage, collaboration and security of all our resources and ensure we are in compliance with CAP NHQ/IT guidelines. We use both personal wing-assigned, and alias based email addresses. This allows members in the wing to perform duties and roles without a position assigned in the wing to access unit documents in order to fulfill the unit commanders intent.
