Cyber Capability and Platform Resilience
Abstract
Provides resources for developmental acquisition support and management (to include the Cyber Investment and Management Board (CIMB)) oversight of Cyber capabilities as the Department conceives, develops, and rapidly fields cyber capabilities for Cyberspace Operations and the instantiation of cyber resilient platforms and weapons systems for priority kinetic and non-kinetic missions. The CIMB was established in 2012 in response to the FY2011 NDAA Section 933, where DoD was directed to provide a “strategy for the rapid acquisition of cyber capabilities, for cyber warfare for USCC and the Cyber Service components of the military departments. USD(AT&L) is responsible for compliance with the FY2011 NDAA and Chairs the CIMB. Funds provide technical, systems engineering, trend analysis, and oversight of programs, projects and activities developing cyber capabilities to maximize the Department's return on investment of cyberspace resources and effect a comprehensive approach for assessing, procuring, and sustaining critical cyber capabilities and cyber resilient systems and platforms from initial design, through development to capability delivery in support of weapons systems performance and military operations. Additionally, these funds will provide systems analyses, portfolio management, executive support of CIMB, enterprise wide systems engineering and operational impact analyses related to Cyber capabilities and ensuring cyber resilience within systems and platforms. Resources will also be used to provide expertise required for exercising technical direction over design, performance, cost parameters, determining and mitigating cyber risks of key systems and their dependencies. The goal of this funding is to assure capability advantage, reduce time to the field, evaluate projects and concepts, minimize cyber related performance and operational risk of developing and fielding complex systems, ensure program dependencies are documented and included in acquisition decisions and address cyber security requirements, gaps and required technical solutions.
