Rapid Attack Detection, Isolation and Characterization Systems (RADICS)
Abstract
The Rapid Attack Detection, Isolation and Characterization Systems (RADICS) program is developing automated systems to detect attacks on critical U.S. electrical infrastructure, maintain situational awareness of the national power grid, and accelerate the recovery process in the event of an attack. The potential for a cyber-enabled attack on the U.S. power grid is a national security issue, as the ability of the military to deploy and project force is dependent on the effective and efficient functioning of civilian logistics and supply systems. RADICS will develop technologies to monitor heterogeneous distributed networks, detect anomalies that require rapid assessment, isolate compromised system elements, establish secure emergency communications networks, characterize attacks, and detect sensor spoofing. RADICS technology development is coordinated with and will transition to U.S. government elements responsible for defense of critical infrastructure.
