Secure Tactical Information Integration
Abstract
This project matures and demonstrates software, algorithms and services that focus on tactical cyber situational awareness, autonomous network defense, cross domain security and encryption solutions. Efforts focus on configuration, operation, monitoring, defense and network reconstitution in bandwidth constrained tactical environments while reducing the operator workload required to conduct these functions. This project codes, optimizes, and demonstrates software based technologies for intrusion detection, high assurance internet protocol (IP) encryption, seamless communications across security boundaries, as well as information sharing across operations and intelligence functions. These capabilities to automate, protect, monitor, report and access cyber elements of the tactical network are intended to greatly reduce Soldier burden and protect the Army's tactical network by building upon enterprise solutions from commercial, Department of Defense, Department of the Army and other government agencies. This project cumulatively builds science and technology capabilities in accordance with Army Cyber Material Development Strategy and the Office of the Secretary of Defense Cyber Community of Interest. This project supports Army science and technology efforts in the Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence, Ground Maneuver, Air and Soldier/Squad portfolios. The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM), Communications Electronics Research Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD.
