ONR Software Security Summer School (SSSS)

ONR SSSS Logo

Since 2017, the ONR Total Platform Cyber Protection (TPCP) program has been developing a comprehensive spectrum of capabilities for transforming software, firmware, and protocols for diverse platforms such as embedded systems, Internet of Things, and Cloud computing. The main focus of TPCP was late-stage software customization/specialization and complexity reduction science and technology (S&T) projects which offer potential for advancement and improvement of security and efficiency of Navy and Marine Corps systems and software.

The purpose of SSSS is to bring together TPCP research performers, security practitioners, and potential users to take full advantage of the creative hands-on learning environment.

Why Attend

  • New cyber exploits keep coming and coming: Software is inherently insecure. Popular apps continue to yield new bugs for relatively small attacker resource investment.
  • Patching is a never ending battle. Most software defense strategies are reactive. Bugs cannot be fixed until they are found. Explore new cyber tools to get ahead of the adversary:
  • Proactively cut needless cyber attack surface that exists in your system. The amount of unnecessary risk may surprise you!
  • Learn to debloat legacy code
  • Learn to cut unnecessary features from deployed software
  • Explore how this emerging pipeline of post build security capabilities could harden your critical systems.
