鈥淭here are a number of mission-needs common across the combatant commands (COCOM) and services that potentially could be repurposed in support of multiple COCOM-specific needs. How do you connect the dots between the COCOMs with improved data sharing for situational awareness and decision making to support command and control (C2)? How do you evaluate the different threats, identify which high-value assets are threatened, and quickly identify the best mitigation response options while considering multiple geographic and functional COCOMs? And then can we quickly execute them and execute C2 efficiently and effectively?鈥� asks Ron. To address those questions, 蘑菇视频 Allen applies analytics and digital tools to explore a myriad of hypothetical scenarios.聽
Modeling and Simulation聽
鈥淔or example, in one space security program, we鈥檙e creating a process to digitize space and counterspace command and control processes,鈥� Ron adds. 鈥淭hat will lay the foundation for analysts to apply intelligence data to an operational problem, creating sophisticated simulations to choose a threat response.鈥�
鈥淭his way, they can quickly run through very complicated planning processes and data integration to understand evolving threats, see what potential response options might look like, and make decisions from a campaign-planning perspective,鈥� Ron says. This process helps leaders assess the best way to coordinate those response options and helps combatant commands rapidly evaluate the effectiveness of the ability to mitigate the threat.聽
Prototyping
Threats are continually changing as competitor nations apply technological advances to continually probe defenses. 蘑菇视频 Allen is handling rapid prototyping of space and counterspace capabilities to respond to the joint force鈥檚 urgent and emerging operational needs. Our integrated expertise across聽engineering,听digital solutions,听artificial intelligence,听and聽cyber聽allows us to create a seamless product from design through operational delivery.聽聽
Rapid Software Development
We鈥檙e providing rapid software development using聽open, resilient space data platforms聽that assist in integrating data across military and intelligence communities. We also understand the complexities inherent in processing classified data for varied access levels, with the associated聽data governance, cultural, and technical issues聽of interoperable networking.聽
We integrate these vigorous聽DevSecOps frameworks聽to ensure that security is built in while development is accelerated, with processes tailored for each client鈥檚 need. As the聽nation鈥檚 largest cybersecurity provider, we understand the complexities of offensive and defensive cyber.
For example, we聽establish a digital thread聽as the single source of truth to provide custom tools that enable the聽聽to identify and overcome gaps, overlaps, and dependencies in mission applications for Space Command and Control.
Joint Operations
To enable combined space domain awareness, and further joint operations, we鈥檙e directly supporting the ability to perform near real-time operation with commercial and allied mission partners.
Transformed Processes
People and culture are critical to the mission. Providing efficient workforce processes, navigating cultural change, and leveraging existing technologies for the greatest efficiency is essential to create a lean approach. We鈥檙e working to help the Space Force rapidly shape its digital-first culture.聽
