Research in Information System
Security and Survivability Funded by
the NSA and DARPA
In a recent study, Anderson et al. (1998) identified a total of 104 indi-
vidual research projects that were funded in FY 1998 by DARPA's Infor-
mation Survivability program, a unit of the Information Technology Of-
fice (ITO). In addition, 45 information security projects were identified
from the NSA and were included in the Anderson et al. (1998) study.
These projects were categorized as depicted below (some projects were
counted in two categories).
Heterogeneity
Preferential Replication/Lifespan, Architectural/Software Diversity,
Path Diversity, Randomized Compilation, Secure Heterogeneous
Environments
NSA R2 = 0 projects; DARPA ITO = 2 projects
Static Resource Allocation
Hardware Technology
NSA R2 = 1 project; DARPA ITO = 0 projects
Dynamic Resource Allocation
Detect & Respond to Attacks/Malfunctions, Dynamic Quality of
Services, Active Packet/Node Networks, Dynamic Security
Management
NSA R2 = 3 projects; DARPA ITO = 12 projects
Redundancy
Replication
NSA R2 = 0 projects; DARPA ITO = 3 projects
