Cybersecurity for Tactical Autonomous Active Cyber Defense

The Army Research Laboratory Research Associateship Program (ARL-RAP) offers a research opportunity focused on cybersecurity for tactical autonomous active cyber defense. The overarching research task is to collaborate with research partners at the National Security Agency and the Laboratory of Physical Sciences in College Park, MD in the area of cybersecurity in solid state and quantum physics, optical and RF innovations, microelectronics integration and advanced computer systems. The intent is to bring new knowledge from ongoing research at LPS to directly support research efforts at ARL South – Cybersecurity and the Network Security Branch at ARL. The program is designed to significantly increase the involvement of creative and highly trained scientists and engineers from academia and industry in scientific and technical areas of interest and relevance to the Army. Scientists and Engineers at the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory help shape and execute the Army's program for meeting the challenge of developing technologies that will support Army forces in meeting future operational needs by pursuing scientific research and technological developments in diverse fields.
