Data in Defense
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is looking for “revolutionary” ways to protect from hackers that workhorse of modern computing, the data bus, a standardized component that allows different pieces of IT equipment—including those in aircraft and weapons systems—to communicate.
The Space Force is flying new command and control software on experimental satellites that can automate some functions for ops crews. The new software, dubbed R2C2 for Rapid and Resilient Command and Control, is leading a wave of new applications for artificial intelligence and automation for ...
Congress and small business advocates are working on a series of fixes for a new Department of Defense cybersecurity certification program they fear will otherwise be a major disincentive for smaller, nontraditional defense suppliers to bid on Air Force and other defense contracts.
