BMT leads JUMP project developed for Dstl
BMT is leading the Joint User Mission Planning (JUMP) science and technology research project to provide military commanders with an integrated cyber and physical mission planning toolkit concept demonstrator.
The project is being developed for the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory. JUMP for Cyber and Electro-Magnetic Activity is a joint enterprise with Riskaware and brings together all the physical knowledge a commander needs to plan missions, such as mapping, the environment, satellite imagery and three-dimensional buildings.
The demonstrator will also provide cyber situational awareness, such as how systems and devices are connected to each other, the current state of the services, whether servers are patched to the correct level and what vulnerabilities or threats exist.
The research project aims to provide the front-line commands and other users with an informed visual understanding of the integration of cyber operations across all domains – something that is currently missing from existing mission planning tools.
BMT has recently secured a year’s further funding for the next phase of this research project which will involve the team delivering additional functionality to the concept demonstrator to enable a range of cyber modelling capabilities.
