Software Project
CyBDAT
Cyber Battle Damage Assessment Toolkit supports structured comparison of cyber and kinetic courses of action so mission planners can connect technical effects to operational choices.
Battle Damage Assessment
Frames effects in mission-relevant terms.
COA Comparison
Supports comparison of courses of action.
Mission Planning
Helps planners reason through operational options.
Cyber/Kinetic Tradeoffs
Connects technical effects to operational tradeoffs.
Project Views
Software views and operator context.
Testbed Controller
Controller view for managing testbed activity within CyBDAT.
Heavy Vehicle HMIs
Human-machine interface view used to support cyber-physical assessment context.
Mission Need
Compare operational effects across attack options.
Commanders and analysts need ways to compare cyber and kinetic options against the same mission objective with a shared decision framework.
What It Does
Structures cyber battle damage assessment.
CyBDAT uses testbed-derived data, cyber-physical modeling, and multi-criteria decision methods to evaluate alternatives and expected effects in mission context.
Why It Matters
Clarifies tradeoffs for mission planners.
The toolkit helps planners communicate options, weigh tradeoffs, and connect technical cyber effects to operational outcomes.
How It Flows
From inputs to mission value.
