## What project 625319 buys

This project will execute mission-driven applied research to develop and transition advanced technologies that secure and sustain superiority in the cyberspace domain, fully aligned with joint operations across air, land, sea, and space. The efforts under this Project will focus on three key pillars: (1) cyber offense—enabling precision effects and proactive disruption of adversarial capabilities; (2) cyber defense—ensuring robust protection of critical infrastructure, systems, and platforms against persistent and adaptive threats; and (3) cyber resilience—designing systems that can anticipate, absorb, and recover from attacks with speed and agility. By integrating these capabilities across multi-domain operations, these technologies support the Department of the Air Force's (DAF) and Department of War's (DoW) strategic vision for a secure, interoperable, and resilient digital ecosystem. It directly contributes to the development of agile, lethal, and networked forces capable of operating with decision advantage in highly dynamic threat environments.

> Activities carry the prior, current and budget year only — no five-year plan. In the request year they partition this project exactly; in earlier years they can under-cover it.

### Cyber Offensive and Defensive Technologies

- Continue development of algorithms and a physics and topologically-based model to detect critical nodes within an intra-connected and inter-connected electrical power grid and communications network to enhance the resilience of critical power grid infrastructures to ensure continued military operations. Activities include developing…

## What is NOT on this page

Congressional marks, the R-2 mission description and acquisition strategy, the industry vs government split of the whole request, and related program elements are recorded at **program-element** grain — an NDAA mark lands on a PE, never on a project.
