National Cybersecurity FFRDC Fact Sheet

Artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, 5G networks, satellite communications, and commercial space travel. Transformational technologies drive performance and efficiency in our work, processes, and lives. But even the smallest tweak has the potential to create vulnerabilities in cyber systems.

That’s where MITRE’s National Cybersecurity Federally Funded Research and Development Center (NCF) fills a critical need, scanning the continually shifting digital landscape for emerging, unexpected problems. Through NCF, MITRE’s multidisciplinary teams research and analyze critical infrastructures and the complex ecosystems they support. With that information, we develop detailed guidance and actionable playbooks that stakeholders can use to mitigate cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
