Description
Mission — Autonomous Cyber Advanced Technology
This project demonstrates defense capabilities against adversarial attacks using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to evade detection and deceive the automated technologies supporting the network's defensive cyber posture.. This Project will provide defensive cyber operations (DCO) software tools for multi-domain operations and enable tactical network cyber defenders with machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. This project matures and demonstrates RF-enabled cyber approaches to Disrupt, Deny, Degrade, Destroy and Manipulate (D4M) adversary C2ISR systems and capabilities. Furthermore, in full alignment with ARCYBER "reprogrammability" efforts, field-based exercises will focus on demonstrating new methodologies for the development of EW/OCO effects that are more readily implemented, upgradable and portable across different Army platforms. Work in this project complements Program Element (PE) 0602276A (Electronic Warfare Cyber Applied Research) / Project A79 (Autonomous Cyber Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army modernization strategy. Work in this project is performed by the Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center.
Mission — Electronic Warfare Cyber Advanced Technology
This Program Element (PE) matures and demonstrates architectures, technologies, techniques, components, and tools to enhance Cyber and Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) for Multi-Domain Joint Operations in tactical environments. These efforts aim to counter the adversary's Command, Control, Computing, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Targeting (C-C5ISR&T) capabilities and plan, target, execute Cyber effects through the employment of non-traditional access and effect vectors against adversarial systems, communication networks, and decision centers to reduce the adversary's ability to execute command and control of its forces. Additionally, these efforts will protect tactical wired and wireless networks against modern cyber-attacks, focusing on configuration, operation, monitoring, data integrity, and defense in bandwidth constrained tactical environments while reducing the operator workload required to conduct these functions. This PE will mature and demonstrate key technologies that create windows of opportunity to provide significant operational advantage over adversaries. It will increase unit survivability and maneuverability and enhance the employment of non-kinetic effects in highly contested and congested electromagnetic environments. Work in this PE complements PE 0602376A (Electronic Warfare Cyber Applied Research). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army modernization strategy.

Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (6)
Predictive Intelligent Networking - Cyber
This effort matures and validates network micro-segmentation methods based on tactical network constraints that employ artificial intelligence (AI) based advanced zero trust security features to autonomously identify, learn, predict, and react to changes in network operating conditions, enables optimized resource quarantining and ensures end-to-end network resiliency against adversarial AI-driven electronic attacks (EA) and cyberattacks.
Tactical Hardening for Quantum
Enable faster migration from existing PKI algorithms to Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms that are safe from compromise by quantum computing. Demonstrate advanced encryption algorithms to secure Army tactical networks against quantum computing threats.
RF Enabled Offensive Effects Advanced Technology
Mature innovative methodologies for Disrupt, Deny, Degrade, Destroy and Manipulate (D4M) RF-enabled cyber effects from Army tactical systems that are in RF proximity to adversary threat C2ISR capabilities. Develop and demonstrate EW techniques for "just-in-time" capability reprogramming and greater portability of effects across all applicable Army systems. Demonstrates new technology concepts to counter adversary Intelligence Surveillance and Resonance (ISR) capabilities across multiple modalities
