The Catalyst Accelerator looks to help the U.S. Space Force boost defensive cyber operations through commercial capabilities, and plans to launch its 11th cohort focused on identifying and automating cyber terrain mapping of complex platforms.
The organization said topics of interest for the CADCO Accelerator are complex cyber network mapping, sensor placement optimization, network mission assurance, cyber domain awareness, automation and threat detection.
Applications from small businesses and startups for the cohort will be received until Jan. 23, with the accelerator beginning on March 7. The three-month initiative will be hosted at Catalyst Campus for Technology and Innovation in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Catalyst Accelerator is a collaborative program powered by both the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Space Vehicles Directorate and the Space Force.
