Defense Info. Infrastructure Engineering and Integration

Abstract

The Defense Information Infrastructure Engineering and Integration effort encompasses two projects: Modeling and Simulation and DoD Information Network (DODIN) Systems Engineering and Support. There are two major activities under the Modeling and Simulation project: Modeling and Simulation and DODIN Enterprise Wide Systems Engineering (EWSE). The DODIN EWSE activity resolves near term (one to three years) high-priority technical issues defined by DoD Chief Information Officer (DoD CIO) and Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), that impact operational capabilities affecting DODIN End-to-End (E2E) interoperability and performance. The Modeling and Simulation project provides architecture, systems engineering and E2E analytical functions for DISA and its customers, ensuring integrated capabilities to fulfill warfighter mission requirements. Ongoing beneficiaries of these capabilities include DoD CIO, the DISA Network Services Directorate, the DISA Enterprise Services Directorate, Program Executive Office-Mission Assurance, the Defense Information Systems Network Command Center and Joint Communications Simulation System users in DoD. The DODIN Systems Engineering and Support project performs discovery, research, development and experimentation of emerging and commercial technologies through the Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) Emerging Technology Directorate (EM) (formerly OCTO) to fill capability shortfalls and technology gaps across the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP). EM identifies these gaps/shortfalls, pursues leading innovative solutions from industry, academia, and the Federal sector, and engages industry partners for commercial best practices. EM conducts technical system engineering reviews and oversight of DISA and DoD enterprise products and services. EM resolves mission partner gaps and agency challenges requiring technical and/or process innovation in Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence (AI), Mobility, Assured Identity, Rapid Transition, Cyber Defense, and Blockchain among other technologies.

Change Summary Explanation
FY2023 funding increase reflects the fact that the FY 2022 President’s Budget request did not include out-year funding. The increase of $2.912 in FY 2023 is to support the Tech Innovation effort known as Quantum Resistant Cryptography. The cryptography used today to authenticate and secure data-in-transit is susceptible to attack from quantum computers and must be replaced. DISA must prepare to adopt new quantum resistant algorithms to secure communications, protect data integrity and digital signatures. These new quantum resistant algorithms are not a drop-in replacement. DISA must establish a new Post-Quantum Certificate (PQC) infrastructure and transition DoD mission applications from legacy cryptographic algorithms to PQC compliant algorithms. These funds will support the ability to execute concept exploration, design a prototype to evaluate the PQC algorithms and to adapt the current DoD Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) standards to be able to use the PQC algorithms for testing and development.
