C3I Cyber Advanced Development

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) matures and demonstrates technologies for offensive and defensive cyber operations in tactical environments. Projects optimize devices, techniques, services, software and algorithms to enable cyber situational understanding and Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA). For offensive cyber, efforts demonstrate integrated electronic attack (EA) and CEMA hardware and software to execute force protection (FP), EA, electronic surveillance (ES), signals intelligence (SIGINT), electronic warfare (EW) and cyber missions in a dynamic, distributed and coordinated fashion. For defensive cyber, efforts demonstrate hardware and software to protect tactical wired and wireless networks against modern cyber attacks and focuses on configuration, operation, monitoring, data integrity, and defense in bandwidth constrained tactical environments while reducing the operator workload required to conduct these functions. This PE directly supports the Network Army Modernization Priority. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
