Cyber Auditable Systems (CAS)
Abstract
The Cyber Auditable Systems (CAS) program will create the technologies necessary for the military to elicit public response and perform sentiment analysis in a secure and auditable manner over the internet. Stability, security, transition, and reconstruction operations are enhanced by the creation of democratic institutions and the elimination of systematic corruption within newly formed governments. These goals depend on the ability of users to speak freely without fear of reprisal and to participate in public referendums with privacy protections. CAS will create technology to enable safe discourse and trustworthy elections over the internet. This will require addressing all three elements of the traditional security triad - confidentiality, integrity, and availability - while also providing for new auditing mechanisms such as the capability for individuals to confirm their vote was correctly recorded and for stakeholder organizations to confirm only legitimate votes were counted. The program will expand traditional encryption algorithms and protocols to encompass auditability in systems requiring public trust.
