NIST developed risk management framework and guidelines that assist agencies to implement integrated, organization‐wide programs to manage information security risk, and further developed Cloud Security Architecture Tool (CSAT) to facilitate in this matter. However, NIST’s CSAT needs further improvement and implementation of new functions such that it can be commercialized as an Enterprise‐g ...

The United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) provides an elite undergraduate educational program that integrates academic, military, and athletic programs to develop leaders of character, motivated to lead the Air Force in service to our nation. By the time cadets graduate and are commissioned as second lieutenants they are expected to acquire a combination of knowledge, skills, and responsibilitie ...

Fairmount Technologies (FT) has developed and validated Stretch Roll Forming, a tool-free technology for CNC curving of extrusions to programmed contours. Parts can be formed directly in the T temper, without heat treatment. SRF is currently being used to form commercial parts and spare parts for DLA.Tooling and heat treatment avoidance position SRF to play a vital role in organic manufacturing, r ...

The USAF has identified the need for ADS-B systems for UAVs. Details of Phase 1 work are discusssed. Methods to enhance ADS-B functionality which were identified and investigated in Phase I are presented.A detailed Phase II work plan consisting of software design, simulations, hardware development and flight testing is presented.

To respond to ever-evolving enemy tactics, realistic, effective training is needed in the operational environment. The Army has, and is currently developing, numerous computer-based resources to support scenario-based training at the point of need. To support the personnel who use these training systems, a content management system is needed. Further, recommendations for training, and adaptively c ...

Leveraging our experience and expertise in robot development and system integration (hardware and software) as well as deep learning for agricultural applications, Hitron Technologies Inc. (HTI) proposes to develop an Intelligent Remote Egg Oiling System (IREOS), with the collaboration of University of South Carolina (USC). The IREOS allows for effective nuisance bird management by performing auto ...

The need for wireless data transfer through the pressure hull of a submarine is presented. A method to achieve high rate data transfer wirelessly is proposed. Such a method uses a transmitter and receiver featuring innovative characteristics. It can be retrofit into vessels with no additional penetrations in the hull. In Phase I, RF simulations will be developed, along with prototypes of key eleme ...
