DHS S&T Awards $640K to the Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute for Supply Chain Cyber-Threats Research

Posted: 09/19/2017 | Leave a Comment

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) today announced a $640,000 award to the Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute (CIRI) for research into prepositioned cyber-threats in mobile devices that originate in the supply chain.

CIRI, a DHS S&T Center of Excellence (COE) led by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, will team with Kryptowire, LLC of Fairfax, Virginia for this research and development (R&D) project. They will examine mobile devices and related supply-chain vectors for prepositioned cyber-threats, including malware or questionable behavior built into the devices by design. The project is being managed by the Homeland Security Advanced Research Project Agency’s Cyber Security Division (CSD) in partnership with the Office of University Programs (OUP).
