About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a $20.3 million definitive contract to Blackhorse, A Parsons LLC on September 29, 2022, for the Signature Management Using Operational Knowledge and Environments (SMOKE) program, a cost-plus-fixed-fee effort with ultimate completion on September 29, 2025.
The originating solicitation, posted in December 2021, sought development of signature management technologies across two technical areas: automated planning and execution of attribution-aware infrastructure, and discovery and generation of infrastructure signatures. The program aims to develop evasive cyber infrastructure incorporating counter-attribution techniques, quantitatively measure attribution risk in real-time, and maintain evasiveness after infrastructure changes. Evaluation criteria include time, scalability, attribution precision, recall, and F1 score. Multiple awards were anticipated across the two technical areas. Place of performance is Herndon, VA. No set-aside was used; the procurement was competitive.
