3 Sigma Research and Professor Sushil Jajodia propose an innovative technology that protects against

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project investigates and develops techniques to determine the privacy risk to databases and data sets. The research results in the implementation of a suite of techniques, Privacy and Risk Mitigation Assessment Tool (PARMAT), to quantitatively… More

3 Sigma Research and Professor Sushil Jajodia propose an innovative technology that protects against "information leaks" by insiders, called Document Theft Reactive Attack Protection. DocTRAP: 1) protects against insider theft of sensitive electronic documents, 2) detects malicious insider… More

An advanced concept is used to provide for the dynamic fusion of multi-security level satellite attack data. The project, called the Satellite Ontology Fusion Investigation (SOFI) provides an ontology for the fusion, classification, and tagging of satellite attack information and other related… More

The Satellite Ontology Fusion Investigation (SOFI) provides the methods and techniques to capture, describe and reason about complex attack data and their interrelations in the satellite domain. This approach provides the foundation to classify, tag, and fuse space-related information using an… More

This Phase I SBIR investigates and develops a system of software cyber-craft that monitor and defend large enterprise networks. This network of cyber-craft agents interoperates to collectively form a smart cyber sensor grid. Our approach incorporates three unique concepts: 1. Real-time dynamic… More

The primary focus of this investigation is to develop techniques to bring all the "parts" together by creating the models that comprise the cybercraft system and to investigate methods that support commanders in deploying cyber assets to achieve a specific mission task. This effort fills an… More

This proposal describes an ontological approach for the development of the cybercraft concept. A methodology is presented to capture and define the cybercraft components, data, and interfaces. The methodology is used in a collaborative effort to ensure the knowledge capture process includes relevant… More

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative approach to develop an enterprise-wide software solution to security classification re-grading that facilitates secure information assurance in a Global Information Grid (GIG) framework. Our Packaged ONtology Certificate (PONC) Investigation (PONC-I) explores… More

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative approach to develop a open architecture based data model and process for adding self-identifying information to a datagram. The power of our potential solution is in applying results from our research of Packaged Ontology Certificates to the unique… More

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative concept for interfaces to ontology-based software that will facilitate development of multi-level security aiding tools and data to ensure information assurance. A primary example of applying this technology would be a tool to assist with the automated… More

3 Sigma Research investigates an advanced concept, called the Mutating Attack-Surface Investigation (MASI), to increase network protection by continuously modifying and dynamically mutating the network profile. This approach addresses the attacker's tactic of network mapping and the assumption of a… More

3 Sigma Research proposes to develop and implement an innovative prototype and demonstrate a suite of tools to assist with the automated creation of security classification guides and application of the guide in classifying information. Building on the research from the Phase I Ontology-based… More

An individual ATO may become very large and complex because of the scope of a mission. The scale of information significantly challenges mission planners to ensure the availability of necessary equipment, configurations, and personnel at locations within reach of the mission target. Optimal flight… More

The Packaged Ontology Certificate Real Time Model (PONC-RTM) Investigation of Phase I developed the concept for extending an enterprise information architecture to make use of PONCs integrated at the datagram level to automate the validation, routing, and control of information that is at the… More

3 Sigma Research investigates and develops an advanced innovative Tangible User Interface (TUI) that provides a novel operator interface for real-time operator manipulation of the cyber environment. This TUI provides a highly abstract physical embodiment of the complex cyber environment, that… More

3 Sigma Research proposes an innovative concept to provide timely, relevant, and accurate information to enable real-time decision on semantic, temporal, and/or geospatial data source. Our concept leverages lessons learned from our semantic research on packaged ontology contexts, and infuses new,… More
