About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded Universita Degli Studi DI Firenze an other transaction indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract vehicle valued at approximately $1.1 million. The contract aims to uncover media manipulation chains through detectable traces in container and content. Specifically, the prime contractor will analyze how digital traces in media files and their transmission methods can be leveraged to map manipulation within inherently opaque networks. No set-aside provisions were applied to the award.
Performance will take place in Italy by the prime contractor, Universita Degli Studi DI Firenze, which does business as Unifi. As the Defense Department's research and development arm, DARPA seeks transformational technologies to maintain a strategic advantage. This contract supports that mission by investigating technical methods to increase transparency in digital information streams, a growing concern as both state and non-state actors increasingly manipulate public discourse through online media.
