Mitigations

Abstract

The Mitigations activity prototypes mitigations to high risk cyber vulnerabilities and recommends a transition path for fielded weapon systems, subsystems, and support systems. CROWS program will perform the engineering analysis and partner with program offices for the affected weapon systems to develop a mitigation strategy. CROWS will lead the non-recurring engineering effort to prototype a mitigation that can be fielded on multiple weapon systems and transition the mitigation to programs for implementation and sustainment. CROWS will develop a mitigation handbook that catalogs proven materiel mitigations for use across Department of the Air Force weapon systems program offices to maximize return on investment in the prototyping activity. This activity bolsters DAF cyber resiliency/security by supporting common secure environments for Program Offices to share information on classified weapon system cyber intelligence, threats, and vulnerabilities. This project also enables rapid response to emerging peer threats by focusing on early technology readiness level (TRL) efforts via non-traditional industry partners to develop and field cyber resiliency technologies to operational users. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver CROWS weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY 2021 $0.032 million was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2022 $0.725 million is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
