Mission Thread Analysis
Abstract
Under the Cyber Mission Thread Analysis (CMTA) project funding is provided to evaluate and prioritize the cyber threat for each Air Force mission thread addressing the gaps created by not having an institutionalized, repeatable process for end-to-end cyber risk analysis across systems of systems and organizations enabling each mission capability. Activities include the prototyping, evaluation, and transition of cyber threat analysis methodologies, functional mission thread analysis methodologies, techniques, supporting software tools, and information technologies to achieve a repeatable, integrated, supportable, sustainable, effective and efficient assessment of cyber impacts to Air Force mission capabilities. Each evaluation will identify cyber risks to users, weapon systems, and missions (from most to least likely) in Air Force operations which will be fed back to the appropriate acquisition Program Executive Offices, Program Offices, and MAJCOMs as well as to policy, processes, products, and people accordingly. Highlighted in a complete cyber mission thread analysis will be critical systems, subsystems, and/or support systems that require increased cyber resiliency to ensure Air Force weapon systems can fight "In-Thru-From" a cyber contested environment.
