CRA: Models for Enabling Continuous Reconfigurability of Secure Missions

CRA Vision

  • Goal: develop a rigorous science of cyber-security that will

(a) detect the risks and attacks present in an environment (b)understand/predict users, defenders, and attacker action (c) alter the environment to securely achieve maximal mission success rates at the lowest resource cost.

  • Outcome: dictate and control the evolution of cyber-

missions and adversarial actions

CRA Research Plan

  • The risk, detection, and agility teams will perform

research by focusing on 4-5 related research tasks

  • Results to be integrated with unified mission model
  • Cross-team and cross thrust collaboration will be supported

by multi-homed PIs from Universities and ARL:

  • Yearly week-long boot camps
  • Bi-annual team meetings
  • Bi-monthly team calls
  • Quarterly CRA open call briefings with ARL
  • Papers, reports, datasets, briefings, systems and

management documents will be distributed (and controlled) through an online system (cra.psu.edu)

CRA Questions

  • ARL integration
  • How best to engage ARL researchers
  • Budget for ARL visiting scholars?
  • Process for University visiting researchers?
  • Tech transfer/field experience
  • Difficult to envision without industrial partner
  • Timeline for call? Assistance?
  • Operational contacts?
  • ARL/WEL and other cyber-security laboratory access?
  • IRB process at ARL
  • Dec meeting must be coordinated carefully: contact?
  • Term: Program Manager or Program Director, or PI
