Cyber Security Research

Abstract

The Cybersecurity Applied Research program (PE: 0602668D8Z) promotes innovative higher risk cyber research to address joint force challenges in full spectrum cyber operations. Through the dedicated funding line the program addresses joint service science and technology (S&T) gaps that influence DoD cyber research priorities and shapes the direction of the wider cyber community. The program integrates both defensive and offensive cyber research to develop interchangeable, defense-wide technology options to meet Combatant Command (CCMD) needs and requirements. To better align itself to the NDS, DoD Cyber Strategy, and Office of Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) Road to Dominance cyber initiative, the program recalibrated research thrust areas to pivot towards emphasizing a need for power projection and taking the fight to the adversary. Developing research thrusts areas in: Behavior Cyber Science, Self-Securing Systems, Precise Cyber Effects, and Applied Mathematics for Cyber.
