Multi-Domain Vulnerability Assessment 

MDVA is an integrated hardware-software solution that enables passive sensing and analysis of data observable on multiple radio frequency (RF) modalities.  MDVA uses sensors integrated into a portable hardware field kit that enables passive wireless data collections from the exterior of facilities or around outdoor infrastructure. The field kit integrates with a software data services enclave for analytics and visualization. Notable analytics include a device inference service to identify, classify, and correlate observable wireless devices. Discovered wireless devices are mapped to known vulnerabilities and weaknesses and assigned an aggregate risk score.

The MITRE MDVA approach integrates low-cost, mobile sensing and analytics with available cyber threat intelligence to automatically identify and communicate potential vulnerabilities to non-cyber experts. The MDVA field kit and data services enclave are a new suite of tools for enhancing the protection of critical infrastructure and facilities, allowing operators to prioritize vulnerability mitigations.

The MDVA field kit and data services enclave are available as a combined solution or as individual capabilities. For more detailed information on MITRE MDVA capabilities or licensing options, contact the MITRE Technology Transfer Office at techtransfer@mitre.org.
