New Army Cyber Challenge

On November 18, 2015, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)), Army Cyber Command and Second Army (ARCYBER & 2A) and TRADOC held an Industry Day to brief interested contractors on the Cyber Challenge opportunity to be released through C5. (https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&tab=core&id=2624a821003e97ba368836f697e533f7) This Cyber Challenge is intended to address the technical feasibility of a bottom-up approach to investigating continuous monitoring and risk scoring, focused initially on developing a risk-based score card capability tool at operational and tactical echelons with a software-based prototype solution.
The Army is in the process of compiling its requirements package. As soon as C5 receives the Request for White Papers, it will, in turn, release it to the membership.
Only C5 Members are permitted to participate in the upcoming ASA(ALT) Cyber Challenge. For more information on membership or this opportunity, please contact C5.
