Tactical DCO-I
Abstract
TDI is a software only program that pre-configures DCO applications 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 Army's Tactical Server Infrastructure (TSI) and resides within the Command Post at the tactical level (Brigade to Army Service Component Commands (ASCC)). 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 (FY 2023-2027), TDI will develop Capability Releases (CR) (CR 1 - CR 4) to implement TDI software change activities and updates to provide value to Brigades to ASCCs. CR 1 will collate and aggregate TDI data from various echelons and present it into a rolled-up status with dashboards reflecting various roles and responsibilities. CR 2 will integrate Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and with Big Data Platform (BDP) to initiate alignment with the Army's tactical data fabric efforts. CR 3 will leverage Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) models generated from BDP and implement it at the tactical edge. CR 4 will support capabilities and technologies to address emerging cyber threats and techniques, tactics, and procedures (TTPs). TDI FY 2025 funding supports the completion of development, engineering, testing, training development, and program management for CR 2 and initiation of development and engineering for CR 3.
