DARPA’s Opera8ng Principles
• Independent • Small/flexible
• World class scien>sts/engineers
• Collabora>on with industry/universi>es/government labs
• Project based porXolio • Program managers technically outstanding/entrepreneurial/
driven

DARPA’s Program Managers the KEY
• Revolu>onary “game changing” innova>ons
• NOT group think • Person closest to cri>cal challenges • Understand technological opportuni>es in their area • Understand today’s reali>es and tomorrows outlook

DARPA’s R&D Requirements Drivers
• Ba]lefield experience • Government concerns
• Government laboratories
• Military laboratories
• Private sector innova>on proposals • Academia research/theore>cal thinking

Consumer Electronic Technologies Impac8ng Cyber Defense R&D
• Sensors • Wearables
• Drones • Robo>cs • Virtual reality (gaming)
• 3D Prin>ng • Internet of everything

Defense Oriented Cyber Trends
• Mobile compu>ng
• Social media
• Data analy>cs • Cloud compu>ng
• Interconnected networks

‹#›
Theore8cal Intelligence "Internet of Things"
9
• Physical sensors • Control devices • Mul>purpose communica>ons
• Processing equipment
• User interfaces ★ Purpose—make be]er decisions and predic>ons based on richer and denser data sets
‹#›
DARPA’s Cyber Ini8a8ves
• Cyber Defense (Cyber Grand Challenge) • Plan X (plan large scale) missions
• High-‐Assurance Cyber Military Systems (HACMS) (security updates not required)
• Radio Map (sensing capability
• Computer Individuality (dis>nct)
• Data Analy>cs (use of informa>on at scale)
• Language (transla>on for war-‐fighters on ba]lefield) • Advanced Encryp>on (homomorphic)
• Warfighter Applica>ons (prosthe>cs)

Ac8ve Cyber Defense (ACD)
Reac8ve Engagement Model • find invading code • unplug affected systems • create security patches • apply patches network wide
ACD Program (not offensive) • collect,synchronize real >me capabili>es • discover, define, analyze, mi>gate cyber threats/
vulnerabili>es • disrupt and neutralize AS ATTACKS HAPPEN
11
‹#›
R&D Ecosystem
• Small central autonomous administra>on • Corporate partnerships
• Academic alliances/collabora>ons
• Associa>on affilia>ons
• Interna>onal research partnerships • Intergovernmental support/sharing
• Government laboratories
• Military laboratories
• Communi>es of interest
12
‹#›
Strategic Purpose for Government R&D
• Bring together best minds and prac>ces • Capture/shape cupng edge thinking and technologies on most difficult (and yet unknown) problems • Integrate solu>ons to address people, process and technologies
