Key Details
Official Description
The Air Force District of Washington (AFDW) and the 844th Communications Group (CG) at Joint Base Andrews face significant cyber threats from adversaries leveraging quantum computing capabilities. Current cryptographic measures are inadequate against quantum decryption techniques, which could compromise classified and sensitive data, crucial systems, and overall mission assurance. To address these vulnerabilities, this project proposes developing an AI-driven cybersecurity platform designed to t...

Quantum Solutions for Proactive Advanced Response in Cyber Warfare - QSPARX
# Q&A Changes Summary **Two new questions added:** 1. **Q1 (now Q2):** Data handling in Phase I – clarifies whether performers must access/store/process CUI or can use simulated/sanitized datasets. 2. **Q2 (now Q3):** Weighting guidance – asks Government to specify relative emphasis on AI/ML capabilities versus practical cryptographic modernization and PQC transition. **Original Q1 renumbered to Q3** with identical answer preserved (both objectives equally valued; legacy protection strongly encouraged; Phase I focuses on conceptual design and feasibility validation).
Quantum Solutions for Proactive Advanced Response in Cyber Warfare - QSPARX
This Q&A clarifies that the government funding opportunity seeks both AI-driven cryptographic assessment capabilities AND practical mechanisms to protect and migrate legacy systems to post-quantum cryptography, with Phase I focusing on technical feasibility and Phase II transition planning.
