Defensive Cyber Operations
Abstract
This effort investigates and applies robust cyber security techniques and applications to advanced communications and networking devices, software, algorithms and protocols utilized within wireless tactical networks to protect against nation state level cyber effects and maintain Warfighter confidence in network information, resources, identities and mission partners by hardening the blue force attack surface. These capabilities will harden the attack surface by ensuring trustworthy software (SW), hardware (HW), information systems, communications and networks. This effort affords resilience within our networks to autonomically ?fight through? and/or evade hostile cyber effects and provide situational understanding (SU) to enable effective mission planning and execution. Work being accomplished under 0602782A/Project H92 and 0603794A/Project EL5 complements this effort, and this effort is fully coordinated with the Army Research Lab Cyber Security Collaborative Research Alliance, 0601104A/Project EA6. In FY19 this effort was moved from Project H92 per an Office of the Secretary of Defense directive to identify cyber investments in cyber unique Projects.
