Cyber Security Applied Research

Abstract

The program will develop technology options through the DoD S&T organizations within and across the following technical areas: Information Assurance / Computer Network Defense (IA/CND) – Develop technologies to harden DoD network components; improve understanding of cyber threat and the mitigation of the threat; and enable systems to operate through cyber attacks in degraded environments. Computer Network Operations (CNO) – Disrupt adversary attack planning and execution; explore game-changing ideas over the full spectrum of CNO and new concepts in cyber warfare; increase collaboration between disparate research communities within CNO; and address identified gaps in DoD CNO S&T to prepare for cyber conflict against advanced persistent threats. Cyber Security Metrics – Explore new analytical methodologies, models, and experimental data sets to establish metrics to measure a system’s state of security; and apply the scientific method to establish the foundations of a scientific framework in which cyber security research can be conducted to test hypothesis with measurable, repeatable results.
