Many existing network intrusion detection systems (IDS) employ expensive deep packet inspection (DPI) and sophisticated pattern matching algorithms to spot evidence of known threats in the network traffic. While IDS are a valuable component of a defense-in-depth strategy, they often require significant compute power, tend to miss new (previously unknown) threats, run on heavy hardware, may require ...

Structural skins and other components of the latest generation of advanced military aircraft include fiber glass or quartz composite construction. Such materials are used in places where a low or moderate dielectric constant is required. Where this structure is installed, it is important for the dielectric properties to be consistent across the component. A spatially-varying dielectric permittivit ...

Our innovative 3D Motion Analysis technology allows for fast and efficient screening of running technique in military personnel that has previously not been available to this scale. We propose providing education and training on our portable 3D Motion Analysis technology to military personnel to explore new ways to utilize this technology. The education and training will focus on ways to identify ...

Ionic Security proposes to design, deploy and demonstrate an enterprise-scale Data Protection Engine and Platform that disrupts the need for traditional perimeter security architectures and end point applications that focus security efforts on networks and access points. Th solution will provide a granular data centric protection and access enforcement engine that encrypts data at scale and preven ...

The seeds of failures of Defense projects can often be traced back to poor quality requirements and a lack of portfolio level coherence between associated projects. Because projects have become so complex, 100% paper-based methods are no longer suitable for requirements management. In June 2018, the DoD released its Digital Engineering Strategy which calls on the services to “move the primar ...

VRgluv is a force feedback haptic glove for virtual reality that tracks your fingers and applies forces across your hands to simulate the presence of virtual objects by stopping your fingers and providing a realistic sense of touch. When integrated into a virtual training environment, VRgluv provides the optimal input device to allow users to train hands-on procedures and develop the procedural me ...

In a swiftly evolving, data-centric, strategic landscape, investigative intelligence - plagued with dramatically increasing number and variety of intelligence collectors – is severely curtailed by current and legacy processing system limitations. USAF’s ISR capabilities must be able to tap into the full potential of its collectors so it can overcome system constraints for rapid disse ...

The purpose of this proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility of producing a replacement for outdated, legacy PCMCIA based data transfer systems with a modern Secure Data Transfer Device (SDTD) that incorporates strong cybersecurity features. This new device will not require any changes on the air platform and will use industry standard secure digital cards. These cards will offer high capacity ( ...

SpaceWorks proposes to adapt its existing RED-Data2 and RED-4U reentry capsules to be “sharper� and more capable of supporting high heat rate flight testing for new thermal protection (TPS) materials. The proposed RED-2U configuration will enable TPS materials research in actual hypersonic flight at elevated heat rates and heat loads. RED-2U will be recoverable on land to allow post-m ...
