IA Workforce Technical (IAT) Level I
The 8570.01-M Manual defines the following for the IA Technical Workforce (IAT) Level I.
IAT Level I personnel make the Computing Environment (CE) less vulnerable by correcting flaws and implementing IAT controls in the hardware or software installed within their operational systems.
