By: Mark Pomerleau The Army provided new details about its nearly $1 billion cyber training contract that will serve as the cornerstone of the Department of Defense's much needed cyber training platform. The Army released Nov. 25 updated information regarding the scope of work for the Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE), which is the main component for the nearly $957 billion Cyber Training, Readiness, Integration, Delivery and Enterprise Technology (TRIDENT) contract. PCTE, an online client in which members of U.S. Cyber Command's cyber mission force can log on from anywhere in the world for training and to rehearse missions, is one of the more critical needs for Cyber Command. Currently, no integrated or robust cyber training environment exists. The updated statement of work, posted in advance of the Dec. 2 industry day, provides details regarding the overall TRIDENT contract, which will extend training services beyond Cyber Command to the joint services. It is expected that a single vendor will be selected for TRIDENT, serving as the integrator for various efforts that will be strung together to make up PCTE. At a general level, the updated documents describe a variety of management, maintenance and evolution services the contractor shall provide for PCTE. Included among those services: Platform architecture and product management Agile development and delivery systems engineering processes Development and automation Hardware and software infrastructure management Event or exercise support Cyber Innovation Challenge (CIC) capability integration and event support Development Operations (DevOps) environment management Distributed configuration management among various vendors and stakeholders PCTE infrastructure tool management License management Onsite and remote support Additional documents include details on three separate delivery orders. The first involves support for infrastructure and maintenance, the second involves support for the integration factory of PCTE capabilities, and the third provides details on platform capability production of PCTE. Currently, the Army is in the prototype phase of PCTE. Using what are known as Cyber Innovation Challenges to award smaller companies a piece of the program, they are incrementally building a platform. That platform, which is being used by forces currently, is helping to prove out the concept for PCTE, refine requirements for the final contract, and reduce risk. Regarding the future of the TRIDENT contract, industry sources have explained that a request for proposals was expected in November with a final proposal expected in March 2020. An award for TRIDENT is expected in late 2020. https://www.fifthdomain.com/dod/2019/11/26/new-details-emerge-on-a-nearly-1b-cyber-contract/

By: Andrew Eversden The Pentagon's lead artificial intelligence office is seeking a cloud integrator to help launch its hybrid, multi-cloud environment. The Defense Information Systems Agency released two source solicitations Nov. 22 on behalf of the Defense Department's Joint Artificial Intelligence Center, seeking small and large businesses that can provide JAIC with system engineering and system integration services during the deployment and maintenance of the hybrid, multi-cloud environment. The cloud environment is an important piece of JAIC's Joint Common Foundation, an enterprisewide AI platform under development by JAIC. The foundation will provided tools, shared data, frameworks and computing capability to components across the Pentagon. JAIC is responsible for accelerating, scaling and synchronizing AI efforts across the Pentagon. “The concept is to provide AI project teams with a set of established processes, tools and delivery methodologies that can facilitate the delivery of mission capabilities and integration into operational mission capabilities,” the solicitation read. Any company chosen should expect to work within Microsoft's cloud environment, as the tech giant recently won the Pentagon's enterprise cloud contract known as the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure, or JEDI. Lt. Gen. Jack Shanahan, head of the JAIC, has continuously asserted that JAIC would be further along in its cloud capabilities if it had an enterprise cloud. The JEDI effort has been delayed by more than six months due to several protests. According to the solicitation, the request for quote is expected to be released in the late second quarter of fiscal 2020, with an award in the late fourth quarter of the fiscal year. https://www.federaltimes.com/acquisition/2019/11/27/the-pentagons-ai-lead-needs-a-cloud-integrator/

By: Martin Banks BRUSSELS – The Dutch chief of defense says it would be “stupid” if the UK did not continue to be closely involved in EU-funded defense projects even when it is no longer a member of the bloc. But British future involvement in EU-led initiatives such as the European Defence Fund and PESCO (Permanent Structured Cooperation) remains unclear, with EU member states yet to decide on a legal framework for third-party participation. With Brexit, the UK will technically become an outsider to the European Union's push for greater defense autonomy. That means London will no longer take part in EU decision-making or operational entities, and any British contribution to an EU operation will be subject to the rules that apply to third countries. Adm. Rob Bauer, chief of defense in The Netherlands, told Defense News he believes it is “imperative” that the UK remains “very closely” involved in such projects. Speaking at the sidelines of the annual European Defence Agency conference in Brussels on Thursday, Bauer said, “Remember, from a military point of view, the UK, even after Brexit, will still be a member of NATO and part of Europe. It is leaving the EU, not Europe. If the focus in Europe is on security then the UK should be part of that. To do otherwise would be stupid.” The PESCO initiative aims to develop and deploy forces at the EU level. Nearly 50 projects have been unveiled to date with the aim of pushing member states to work more closely together in the area of security and defense. So far, €13 billion has been allocated to the EDF which seeks to promote cross-border collaboration on defense research and technology projects, plus another €6.5 billion in the pipeline to upgrade roads, bridges, rail lines, ports and airports for military mobility, and €16 billion on space programs. Formal rules on third-party access to PESCO projects and the EDF are still being decided. Discussions are continuing at EU member state level, and no final decision is expected until the UK formally exits the EU, officials here said. London's departure has been delayed for the third time until Jan. 31, 2020. Bauer said, “I have spoken to the Brits about this and they have told me how difficult these discussions have been and continue to be. It is clear that agreement on access is certainly not a done deal.” “But we need to be pragmatic about this and continue to work together in the future.” His comments were broadly echoed by Lieutenant General Franz Leitgeb, Austria's Military Representative to the EU and NATO, another attendee at the EDA summit who told Defense News, “After Brexit, the UK will have third-party status, so third-party partnership rules will apply regarding its contribution to and participation in EU-funded projects like PESCO. “We still need to decide what precisely this means in the UK case but, whatever transpires, the UK has to realise this is a two-way street. That means that if the UK and its defense industry is to have access to EU-funded schemes and projects it has to contribute to these.” “Whatever happens we're going to need the current close relations on defense between the two sides to continue.” Further comment came from Benedikt Zimmer, state secretary at the German defense ministry, who took part in a session on PESCO and the EDF and said, “The more open cooperation is after Brexit, the better.” In a keynote address, Michel Barnier, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, warned that UK involvement in EU defense and security would only become clearer once discussions start, probably at the start of 2020, on a political agreement between the two sides. Barnier told the packed audience, comprising senior military officials and personnel, that reaching agreement will be an “enormous challenge,” adding, “I do not want to interfere in the current UK election campaign but I am sure the Brits will still have an appetite for continued cooperation in the defense field. But, even so, they have to realize it will no longer be business as normal. I hope that UK defense companies, providing the rules are met, will still participate in European defense. We have the tools to make it happen but we still need to find a new framework for future cooperation.” More than 50 non-EU states have participated in Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) operations since its first mission in 2003, including four regional powers – namely Turkey, Russia, Brazil and South Africa. The official British position on security and defense is ambitious about the possible scope of the UK-EU relationship post-Brexit, talking about a “deep and special partnership” that would go “beyond existing third country arrangements.” However, little in the recent past suggests the UK would seek much CSDP involvement once no longer a member: the UK has not been the most enthusiastic supporter of the EU's defense agenda thus far, and it's questionable if this would change after Brexit. https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2019/11/29/britains-defense-ties-to-the-eu-are-still-up-in-the-air-post-brexit/

Earlier this year, the Defense Digital Service — the Pentagon's cadre of coders and hackers performing a short stint in government — finished the second phase of a pilot program to streamline cyber training for the Army. The Army wanted to streamline two phases of cyber training: the Joint Cyber Analytics Course, or JCAC, which takes 27 weeks in Pensacola, Florida, and provides basic cyber training for joint forces that have no prior experience in cyber; and the more tactical training that happens at Fort Gordon in Georgia. Combined, the two phases take a minimum of 36 weeks. To accomplish this, the Defense Digital Service, working with the Army Cyber Center of Excellence and a private vendor, built a course to conduct training in three months — everything a cyberwarrior needed to know from JCAC, said Clair Koroma, a bureaucracy hacker at DDS. Phase two — which combines tactics involving hardware, offensive and defensive cyber, and networking — takes seven months. It excluded the classified course, Koroma added. At this point, she said, DDS has transitioned all of its materials to the Cyber School, which will pick up the third phase of the pilot training, though DDS will still be available for assistance. “The plan is that eventually the 17Cs, [who execute offensive and defensive cyberspace operations], will come to Fort Gordon on inception and do their entry and mid-level training at Gordon. They will run this as the course for those soldiers,” she said. Koroma said success of the pilot will be measured from the operational world — evaluating the skill sets of the soldiers that graduate from the pilot program and comparing them to prior classes. Thus far, she added, no graduates from the pilot program have been overwhelmed in operations. Students during the second pilot were also evaluated by senior leaders within the Army cyber community and commands where they might be assigned during their final project and presentation. Students needed to identify issues on the network and conduct an outbrief to these leaders. “Senior leaders then got an opportunity to ask them questions,” Koroma said. “Every single person who was in that presentation said that they were impressed by the delivery of the students and the quality of the presentation that the students gave.” In fact, Koroma said, there are two students she's aware of whose orders were changed at the conclusion of training because leaders who attended the presentation wanted them on their team. https://www.fifthdomain.com/dod/army/2019/11/29/how-defense-digital-service-revamped-army-cyber-training/

HASSAN MEDDAH Des allées pleines de visiteurs, des exposants toujours plus nombreux, des stands truffés d'innovations... La 21eme édition du salon Milipol dédiée à la sécurité et la sûreté des Etats, qui se tient à Paris du 19 au 23 novembre, fait encore le plein. A Paris Nord Villepinte, du 19 au 23 novembre, la 21eme édition de Milipol, qui vise 30 000 visiteurs professionnels, souligne le dynamisme du marché de la sécurité et de la sûreté au niveau mondial mais en France également. Forte de 130 000 personnes, la filière tricolore génère un chiffre d'affaires de 30 milliards d'euros dont un tiers réalisé à l'export. Outre son cycle de conférences, ce salon s'impose comme le véritable bazar de la sécurité. Les acheteurs professionnels, comme les 170 délégations étrangères qui ont fait le déplacement, ont pu trouver de quoi assurer leurs besoins en protection. Dans les stands, on trouve de tout... ou presque. 1/ Le fusil électromagnétique anti-drone de la gendarmerie Les gendarmes exposent sur le stand du ministère de l'Intérieur leur dispositif de lutte anti-drone. Une mallette équipée d'un dispositif rayonnant permet de détecter toute intrusion dans un rayon de 5 km. Le gendarme arrose alors le drone avec un fusil brouilleur émettant des ondes électromagnétiques avec une portée d'un km environ et dans un cône de 70° d'ouverture environ. Les ondes émises brouillent le GPS et neutralisent les communications entre l'opérateur du drone et son engin, forçant ce dernier à se poser. Cette solution a été conçue par la société italienne CPM Elettronica. 2/ La camionnette espion La société Intellexa expose un van d'un genre très particulier. En plus de ses deux passagers, il embarque un véritable centre de contrôle et d'espionnage pour mener des missions de renseignements dans le plus grand secret : caméras pour filmer les allées et venues dans les environs à travers les vitres teintées, antennes d'interception à 360° des communications sans-fil (Wifi, 2G, 3G, 4G...), outils d'investigation et d'infection numérique à distance... 3/ Des fusils en veux-tu, en voilà Sur le stand de l'armurier italien Beretta, se côtoient des armes pour snipper pour atteindre des cibles à plus de 2km, des armes semi automatiques capables de tirer plus de 800 coups par minute, des fusils d'assaut... 4/ Le laboratoire mobile d'analyse ADN Pour identifier des victimes au plus près du terrain lors d'une catastrophe (crash d'avion, ouragan, terrorisme...), la société TraceIP a conçu un laboratoire mobile d'analyse ADN. Opérationnel deux heures après l'arrivée sur site, il peut analyser une vingtaine d'échantillons en 30 minutes, gr'ce à une innovation développée et brevetée par l'Institut de recherche criminelle de la Gendarmerie nationale. 5/ Le drone dopé à l'intelligence artificielle Drone Volt présente sur son stand un drone de surveillance. L'appareil embarque deux cameras, l'une offrant un zoom optique *30, l'autre thermique pour la surveillance nocturne. Les images traitées par un moteur d'intelligence artificielle, identifient les formes, détectent des plaques d'immatriculation... Pour gagner en robustesse, son fuselage est constitué d'une structure carbone monobloc. 6/ Le détecteur de snippers La PME française Cilas présente sur son stand un système de détection avant-tir de sniper basé sur l'effet «œil de chat». Le laser du dispositif balaie une zone à risque préalablement définie envoyant un rayon invisible susceptible d'être réfléchi par la lunette du fusil du sniper ou ses jumelles. Le système permet alors de localiser le tireur jusqu'à 1 km de distance en fonction de la taille de l'optique détectée. Il est déployable en une dizaine de minutes. 7/ Le dispositif anti-voiture bélier Stopper net un véhicule de 7,5 tonnes lancé à 80 km/heure. C'est la capacité du dispositif contre les voitures bélier développé par la société Kopp. Ce ralentisseur à double sens d'arrêt est composé de deux peignes métalliques biseautés capables de relever à 50 cm de hauteur en moins de 3 secondes. Cet obstacle escamotable nécessite très peu de génie civil, se fondant dans la chaussée à 50 cm de profondeur. 8/ Les smartphones grand public avec une sécurité militaire Ercom, société récemment rachetée par Thales, présente à Milipol des téléphones sécurisés permettant l'échange de données confidentielles gr'ce à une carte SIM capable de chiffrer les appels, les SMS, les data.... Basée sur des smartphones Samsung, l'offre vise les collaborateurs des gouvernements et des grands groupes pour protéger leurs données sensibles en mobilité, et en cas de perte, de vol et d'écoute. Ces appareils bénéficient de l'agrément Diffusion Restreinte de l'OTAN et l'ANSSI, l'Agence nationale pour la sécurité des systèmes d'information. https://www.usinenouvelle.com/editorial/en-images-fusil-anti-drone-camionnette-espion-milipol-le-grand-bazar-de-la-securite.N906149
