The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) awarded $1.1 million to seven federal laboratories that support DHS missions and homeland security stakeholders. The contract awards stem from S&T’s Commercialization Accelerator Program’s (CAP) inaugural Call for Proposals, which seeks to identify groundbreaking technologies that demonstrate great potential for commercialization.
“The Commercialization Accelerator Program bridges the gap between research and the marketplace, accelerating the use and expanding the availability of federally funded technologies,” said Dr. Dimitri Kusnezov, DHS Under Secretary for Science and Technology. “We are proud to leverage innovative research from labs across the federal government to support the DHS mission in addressing critical homeland security challenges.”
The 2022 CAP awardees are:
Department of Energy:
- Argonne National Laboratory: Autonomous Intelligent Cyber-Defense Agent
- Idaho National Laboratory (2): Plug-N-Play Appliance for Resilient Response of Operational Technologies; Wireless Radio Frequency Signal Identification & Protocol Reverse Engineering
- Los Alamos National Laboratory: Industrial Internet of Things – Physics-Informed AI Vibe Sensor for Condition Monitoring and Cybersecurity
- SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory: Grid Resilience & Intelligence Platform 2.0
- Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory: Out of Band Over Existing Industrial Control Communications
