Geospatially Integrated Cyber Situational Awareness

Dignitas and our partner, Cognitics, will conduct a feasibility study, determine use cases, and develop a detailed system design to include geo-referenced cyber data in an enhanced situational awareness for Special Operations Forces (SOF) operators within existing Mission Command Systems (MCSs). This Phase I will define a flexible architecture that leverages microservices to accomplish the various functions necessary to integrate cyber into a geospatial common operating picture. Microservices will include aggregation of cyber data from various cyber sensors or other sources, classification and storage of cyber data, and transforming and delivering aggregated cyber data to SOF MCSs. Team Dignitas is proposing to research and design a system that will aggregate cyber information and, through standardized formats and protocols, fuse that information with the SOF Hyper-Enabled Operator’s common operational picture.
