Open Call for Innovative Defense-Related Dual-Purpose Technologies/Solutions with a Clear Air Force Stakeholder Need

Today’s weapons systems have little or no protection from cyber attacks. For the first time, Shift5 enables users to comprehensively secure the serial data bus supporting operational technology (OT) platforms such as embedded computers in weapons systems, aircraft and other heavy vehicles. Shift5 Intake collects, stores, enriches and securely transmits [optional] full-packet captures of serial data supporting protocols such. Shift5 Engine provides advanced rules & heuristics-based logging, detection and real-time alerting of cyber anomalies. Shift5 Gauge Cluster also provides visualization front-end and remote access to the data [optional], enabling incident response, situational awareness / common operating picture (SAR/COP) for leadership, and advanced analytics for cyber protection or red teams. Shift5 translates previously unseen serial data to operational insight in user-friendly and easy to integrate platforms already used across the DoD and industry such as ELK, Splunk, or Palantir.
