C3I Applied Cyber

Abstract

This PE designs cyber architectures, software, tools, and techniques to enable Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) to counter adversary communications and harden the Army's tactical communications networks against cyber attacks. For offensive cyber effort against adversary communications, efforts investigate capabilities to identify and capture data traversing targeted networks for detection, identification, exploitation, direction finding, geolocation, and denial of service. For defensive cyber efforts hardening the Army's tactical network, efforts also investigates and applies robust cyber security technologies and techniques to advance software, algorithms and protocols utilized within tactical networks to protect against nation state level cyber attacks and maintain Warfighter confidence in network information by hardening the blue force attack surface. All FY20 adjustments align program financial structure to Army Modernization Priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Priorities.
