Mission Assurance
Overview
Awareness of the prevalent threat model of highly sophisticated
and well-funded cyber adversaries is growing. To address this,
information systems must be designed, built, and operated with
the expectation that system components may contain unknown
vulnerabilities that may be unknowingly compromised. MITRE is
developing information assurance techniques that meet mission
objectives and operate effectively even when working with
vulnerable cyber systems under sophisticated life-cycle attacks.
MITRE is using a multi-pronged risk management approach to
reduce cyber vulnerabilities and mitigate consequences from any
remaining threats.
Examples of projects related to this challenge area include:
- Host-Based Firewall with Dynamic Encryption Capability
- Information Sharing via Trusted Intermediaries
- Low-Cost Anti-Tamper Technology
- Malware Phylogenetics
- Mission Assurance via Resilient Systems
- Mission Aware Reporting of Information Assurance for
Airborne Networks (MARIAAN)
- Rapid Trusted Video Stream Dissemination
- TRIDENT (Trust Research in Distributed and Emerging
Network Technology)
