Cybersecurity DT&E for Weapon Systems

Abstract

This project provides dedicated resources to support MDAP and Rapid Prototyping Program Managers, Chief Developmental Testers, and Lead DT&E Organizations in the development of comprehensive, efficient, and innovative Cybersecurity DT&E strategies to support key acquisition milestones and engineering/programmatic decisions. On behalf of the OUSD(R&E) this project executes the following activities: - Support acquisition programs in the development of comprehensive, efficient, and innovative Cybersecurity DT&E strategies. Ensure that Cybersecurity DT&E strategies are documented in Test and Evaluation Master Plans (TEMPs). For ACAT ID programs, review and approve/disapprove the Cybersecurity DT&E strategy/plans within the TEMP. - Support rapid prototyping, rapid fielding, and technology demonstrations efforts in the development of tailored comprehensive, efficient, and innovative Cybersecurity DT&E strategies/plans. - Support the development of independent technical risk assessments and advise the Secretary on the Cybersecurity, cyber survivability, and resilience posture before any decision to grant Milestone A or B approval, or enter into low-rate initial production or full-rate production for ACAT ID programs or when requested by the Secretary. - Identify DoD Cybersecurity test infrastructure gaps and support development of the OUSD(R&E) test resources strategic plan. - Evolve the Cybersecurity DT&E 'state of practice' to keep pace with emerging technologies and improve test efficiency to field systems faster. - Coordinate with Director, Operational Test and Evaluation to improve Cybersecurity T&E efficiency and make best use of integrated testing.
