Pathways to a National Cyberspace Security Response System

Overview
The Pathways to a National Cyberspace Security Response System (PNCSRS) is a prototype of information infrastructure assurance capability specified in the National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace. The PNCSRS application suite was used to: (1) evaluate off-the-shelf technologies that have the potential to be deployed in more advanced NCSRS pilots; (2) to explore methods of conducting future national scale cyber security exercises; and (3) to generate ideas for new R&D initiatives.

The trial produced key breakthroughs by demonstrating the fusing of cyber security information with other operational intelligence through the DoD's Global Command and Control System (GCCS), and in procedural approaches to integrate cyber security information in the HLS-HLD decision-making process.
