Cyber Capability & Platform Resilience
Abstract
Provides resources for developmental acquisition support and portfolio management in support of three primary Goals in support of the Department of Defense (DoD) Cyber Strategy 1) Trained and Equipped Cyber Mission Force 2) Cyber Hardened Weapon Systems and Critical Infrastructure 3) Enhanced Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Cyber Security The Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment (OUSD(A&S)) conducts mission engineering for cyberspace operations to inform and support the development of Joint Cyber capabilities as the Department conceives, develops, and rapidly fields cyber capabilities for Cyberspace Operations. The newly established OUSD(A&S) Chief Information Security Office (CISO) was created to improve planning, coordination, synchronization, and integration of cyber activities and increase the DoD wide emphasis on reducing the cyber risk to critical DoD missions and enhancing DIB Cyber Security. Funds provide technical, systems engineering, trend analysis, and portfolio management of programs, projects, and activities developing cyber capabilities to maximize the Department's return on investment of cyberspace resources and effect a comprehensive approach for assessing, procuring, and sustaining critical cyber capabilities and cyber resilient systems and platforms from initial design, through development to capability delivery in support of weapons systems performance and military operations. Additionally, these funds will provide systems analyses, portfolio management, and executive support of Senior Cyber Leadership forums, enterprise wide systems engineering and operational impact analyses related to Cyber capabilities, enhancing cyber resilience within systems and platforms, and enhancing the cybersecurity of the DIB. Resources will also be used to provide expertise required for exercising technical direction over design, performance, cost parameters, and determining and mitigating cyber risks of key systems and their dependencies. The goal of this funding is to assure capability advantage, reduce time to the field, evaluate projects and concepts, minimize cyber related performance and operational risk of developing and fielding complex systems, ensure program dependencies are documented and included in acquisition decisions, and address cyber security requirements, gaps, and required technical solutions.
