Summary | This research will investigate the use of emerging techniques in data analysis and blockchain to support efforts in Computer Network Defense. Blockchain is a transformative approach for leveraging consensus in distributed computational systems to provide unparalleled decentralized and redundant security. Three primary objectives will be pursued in this research: 1) development of enterprise-scale network monitoring mechanisms using blockchains; 2) the development of high-speed, automated incident response and lock-down capabilities for enterprise scale networks; and 3) modeling and evaluation of Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) behaviors on enterprise networks. This research will support the dissertations of LCDRs Ashely McAbee, LCDR Jamie Safar and LT Vikram Kanth as well as various Master's thesis research. |
