BlueRISC's proposed solution provides a fundamentally new approach to automated embedded software/firmware analysis relying on a novel cross-binary/firmware differential exploitability analysis framework. The solution is able to identify newly added potentially exploitable paths associated with zero/n-day vulnerabilities, characterize new functionality with respect to its potentially malicious nat ...

Implementing continuous nuclear and radiological monitoring systems that support automatic detection and tracking of potential nuclear threats is\ntraditionally associated with a high operational burden. Sensors are typically monitored by dedicated personnel, who must investigate detection events\nin a timely manner. High nuisance alarm rates can rapidly overwhelm already taxed law enforcement per ...

First responders use of portable electronic devices including cell phones and radios has increased dramatically over the past decade and will continue to grow with the introduction of new visual augmentation systems, wearable sensors, and mobile computing systems being developed under the DHS Next Generation First Responder (NGFR) Apex program. The large number of powered devices, each with their ...

Next Generation First Responders, also known as NGFRs, will carry more battery powered sensors and IoT to wirelessly connected devices beyond cellphones, radios, and peripheral PPE devices, with their range of power requirements and charging connectors.Requiring first responders to track battery levels and recharge multiple devices would distract from their missions.A Power Module for First Respon ...

Innovision LLC proposes an innovative and robust solution to this topic, a software tool named PASSIG (Passenger and Baggage Simulation for Synthetic Image Generation), which can be used to quickly create 3D passenger models and baggage models. These models, in turn, can be used by electromagnetic simulation (EMS) tools to generate synthetic passenger and baggage Xray and MMV images for machine le ...

Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to develop the Networked Aerial Vehicle for Automated Radiation Clearing (NAVARC) to perform an autonomous search for radiological threats in a complex 3-D environment. The PSI-developed InstantEye unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) will navigate using a series of optimized waypoints to minimize the time required to fully search an area and inspect objects. Detecti ...

A successful weapon of mass destruction (WMD) terrorist attack against the United States would have a profound and potentially catastrophic impact on our nation. It is imperative to be able to quickly, efficiently, and effectively localize radiological threats in a wide array of unstructured environments to detect and deter such an event. In recent years, man-portable radiation detectors have beco ...

Care for the wounded Warfighters in austere and remote settings makes medical knowledge, skills and efficiency of the military medical professional paramount. For wounds that extend deep into internal anatomy, proper visualization of internal anatomy can

The goal of medical simulation-based training such as high-fidelity manikin simulators, part task trainers, and screen-based virtual patients, is to approximate real-life treatment experiences without risk to live patients. While the use of sensors has ma

The proposed MIDI (Medical Informatics over a Distributed Infrastructure) system will provide comprehensive, efficient, easy to use, and easily deployed communication solutions for Military Healthcare Systems (MHS) in a broad range of environments. We lev
