Cyber Vulnerabilities Assessments and Evaluations

Abstract

This Project funds cyber vulnerabilities evaluations of major weapon systems in alignment with Section 1647 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, and of critical infrastructure in alignment with Section 1650 of NDAA FY 2017. Efforts in this Project will: 1) identify, assess, and develop and identify non-recurring engineering (NRE) to mitigate operational risks from cyber vulnerabilities to critical Army weapon systems in an operational configuration; and 2) assure the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of the information and control systems that underpin Army facilities and critical infrastructure by inventorying and assessing Facility-Related Control Systems (FRCS). Weapon systems evaluations will assess and provide NRE recommendations to mitigate operational risks emanating from a peer or near-peer adversary profile in accordance with existing test/lab requirements through acquisition cycle. Where applicable, these evaluations will include tabletop exercises, lab assessments, and exercise/operational assessments of Program Executive Officer Command, Control, Communications-Tactical (PEO C3T) and ground weapon systems. Cyber hardening efforts will be informed by the vulnerability assessments reports (VAR) generated through the assessment and prioritization process. Prioritization will be based on mission criticality, impact to readiness, and threat. When applicable, this PE also provides for Red Team enhancement to support Combatant Command mission-level cyber vulnerability assessments.
