Cyber Security Research

Abstract

This program supports the Department's initiatives to Defend the Homeland and Build Sustainable and Long-Term Advantage. The Cyber Security Applied Research program element promotes innovative higher risk cyber research to meet joint force challenges in full spectrum cyber operations. 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 National Defense Strategy (NDS), Department of Defense (DoD) Cyber Strategy, and Office of Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) strategic cyber capability goals, the program recalibrated research thrust areas to emphasize the role of electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO) and artificial intelligence as key enablers for cyber power projection of scale, speed, and dominance. The established research thrusts areas are: Behavioral Cyber Applied Research, Self-Securing Systems, Precise Cyber-EMSO Effects, and Applied Mathematics for Cyber.
