Tactical DCO-I

Abstract

FY2023 Tactical DCO- I budget line provides funding for Program Executive Office Command Control and Communications - Tactical (PEO C3T) Tactical Defensive Cyber Operations (DCO) Infrastructure (TDI) TDI is a software only program that pre-configures applications from DCO's Tool Suite to allow local and remote Cyber defenders the ability to conduct cyberspace surveillance and maneuver against an adversary traversing within the tactical network. The TDI capability is hosted on the Tactical Server Infrastructure (TSI) and will reside within the Command Post at echelon Army Service Component Commands (ASCC) through Brigade. The TDI capability includes: 1) Mission Protection: Ability to automate deployment of DCO tools to protect the virtual server environment of the Command Post Computing Environment (CPCE). 2) Discovery/Counter- Infiltration: Ability to auto detect multiple virtual cyber threats and facilitate the mitigation/denial of adversarial actions. 3) Cyberspace Support/Readiness: Allow global and regional cyberspace defenders to assist units with countering advanced persistent threats. TDI follows a five-year, Information Technology (IT) Box construct to deliver capability over time, based on approved requirements. In IT Box (FY2023-2027), TDI is being developed in four capability drops (CDs). CD 4 will integrate Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and Big Data Platform (BDP) Lower Echelon Analytics Platform (LEAP) - tactical (LTAC) to synchronize with PM DCO's portfolio. CD5 will execute distributed queries from various data sources and facilitate remote operations defensive maneuvers to the tactical enclaves. CD 6 will support and incorporate emerging Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and LTAC capabilities and applications. CD7 will support capabilities and technologies to address emerging cyber threat and techniques, tactics, and procedures (TTPs). TDI FY2023 funding supports the development, engineering, testing, training development and program management required to establish the first capability (Capability Drop (CD) 4) of the follow on IT Box FY2023-2027 in support of CD 4 delivery, planned for FY2024. CD 4 will integrate Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and Big Data Platform (BDP) Lower Echelon Analytics Platform (LEAP) - tactical (LTAC) to synchronize with PM DCO's portfolio.
