The US Army will soon send teams of cyber warriors to the battlefield, officials said Wednesday, as the military increasingly looks to take the offensive against enemy computer networks.

US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said Cybercom is playing an important role in the US-led military operation against the IS group in Iraq and Syria.

The US military's secretive Cyber Command (CYBERCOM) is working to destroy the ISIS group's Internet connections and leave the terrorists in a state of "virtual isolation," Pentagon chiefs said on Thursday.
