DARPA is offering the RADICS grant to develop innovative technologies for early detection, isolation, and characterization of cyber-attacks on critical US infrastructure. The focus is on responding to widespread attacks on the power grid and its dependencies. Proposals should aim for revolutionary advancements rather than incremental improvements, excluding research that maintains the current state of practice. The closing date for submissions is February 11, 2016, 12:00:00 AM EST.
