The Department of Defense announced today the release of the Cyber Resilient Weapon Systems Body of Knowledge (CRWS-BoK) Portal Version 1.3. The Resilient Systems (RS) Directorate, under the leadership of Director Melinda Reed, launched the Portal and continues to guide Portal updates.
The CRWS-BoK Portal provides publically available information to assist the workforce in the engineering of cyber resilient weapon systems. The updates in Version 1.3 include:
- A redesigned registration page to make user registration clearer
- New “Search” tour guide to make searching for documents and resources on the Portal simpler
- New “Forgot Password” page for users to reset their own password
- Courtesy confirmation email now sent to users upon successful update of their profile
- Share button added to individual documents and resources to make it easier to share with other users
- Graphics improvements throughout the Portal to streamline the Portal’s look and sharpness
For additional information and to register for a free account, please visit the CRWS-BoK Portal. The site is optimized for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari browsers. For more information on the Portal and its features, an RS-developed presentation is accessible via the DoD Cyber Security and Information Systems Analysis Center (CSIAC). A webinar recording of this presentation is also publicly available on the CSIAC YouTube channel.
The RS Directorate, which is part of the Strategic Technology Protection and Exploitation (STP&E) office in the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, also partners with science and technology (S&T) professionals to foster assured resilient missions, systems, and components. It leverages best practices and fosters innovation that enables the Nation’s S&T workforce to engineer cyber resilient weapon systems that can successfully operate in the face of persistent cyber threats. STP&E has worked closely with users to solicit feedback and implement improvements through the release of several version iterations since the initial launch in May 2021.
