Security News > 2023 > February > New virtual data fabric to support DoD cyber testing

The Measure & Share Storage Virtual Fabric addresses a specific and critical need within the DoD to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of cyber testing, allowing accurate information sharing across organizational and classification enclaves.

The Me&S Storage Virtual Fabric will enable the DoD to securely ingest, store, manage, analyze and share data in support of its cyber testing operations.

Solutions suggested by DeciSym and Sylabs include devising a universal mechanism to quantify the efficacy of a cyber test or quantify system readiness for testing and disseminating specific cyber TTP test vectors that have been used during testing so they can be reused.

Benefits of using a virtual data fabric for cyber testing.

The use of a virtual data fabric in general has many potential benefits for cyber testing for most organizations that face similar shortcomings.

In the DoD case, the Me&S Storage Virtual Fabric platform offers insights into cyber resilience so that leadership at all levels can understand the overall risk posture posed by systems and missions tested using this technology.
