On-demand access to public safety data is critical to ensuring that public safety and first responder (PSFR) personnel can deliver the proper care and support during an emergency. This necessitates heavy reliance on mobile platforms while in the field, which may be used to access sensitive information. However, complex authentication requirements can hinder the process…

ROCK ISLAND ARSENAL, Ill. – How many times a day do you join a video conference, take a phone call, send an instant message, or respond to an email? None of these communication capabilities would be possible for the U.S. Army Sustainment Command workforce without the G6 (Information Management) directorate. ASC provides soldiers across the globe with the right equipment at the right place and…

Chat-GPT, DALL-E and other artificial intelligence (AI) tools based on large language models (LLMs) are causing seismic shifts in the way people create and communicate. Users can interact with these “chat bot” LLMs by asking or typing a question in plain language rather than by learning a complicated computer code. And the results come nearly instantaneously. But we’ve only scratched the surface of what this…

Anyone who has flown on a commercial flight, crossed an international border, visited a government building, or attended a concert knows you’re not getting inside until you pass the security guards. Placing guards outside the gates is a centuries-old defense strategy used to protect people, places, and things from those who seek to do harm. Like those guards, Idaho National Laboratory’s (INL’s) newest network anomaly…

Thanks to the rapid growth of large language models (LLMs), artificial intelligence (AI) agents have quickly been integrated into many facets of everyday life – from drafting documents to generating artwork to providing research assistance. But verifying the accuracy or appropriateness of an AI’s response is not always easy. For AI systems to be trusted partners with humans in situations where safe and ethical decisions…

FORT MEADE, Md. – The National Security Agency (NSA) is issuing guidance for using trusted platform modules (TPMs) to secure computing devices and harden the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise infrastructure. A TPM is a security solution embedded in most enterprise computing systems. The TPM protects keys – associated with certificates created by vendors and manufacturers – which are used during acceptance testing and…

Hours before dawn, under the veil of a new moon, two figures in military fatigues grapple like Greco-Roman wrestlers within the razor-wire perimeter of the Blue Grass Army Depot in Richmond, Kentucky. Their movements are rigid but discreet, each maneuvering for leverage beneath the orange glow of the floodlights lining the depot’s security fence. In the distance, a patrolling sentry squints, straining to make sense…

FORT MEADE, Md. – Malicious cyber actors are increasingly exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities to compromise enterprise networks, according to an annual Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) about the top routinely exploited vulnerabilities coauthored by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the National Security Agency (NSA), and domestic and foreign partners. The CSA, “2023 Top Routinely Exploited Vulnerabilities,” details the top 15 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) collected…

This presentation describes a network survivability assessment methodology for Cyber-Electromagnetic Activities teams to identify cyber threats early in the acquisition cycle. The U.S. Department of Defense Acquisition Process begins with a Material Solution Analysis (MSA) and culminates with operations and support. An Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) takes place after all potential solutions are examined to…
