Pentagon's research and development department, DARPA, is carrying out an X plan to build the world's first online battlefield warning and defense system in 4 years, costing 125 million of dollars.

Associated with the prosperity of Internet applications is an increasingly serious threat to cyber security. For the military sector, this is another battleground. There is no smoke, hear the sound of guns, see opponents, nor the General Assembly of dead, but its intensity is no less than the battlefield. In the age of the Internet, information warfare and cyber terrorism have increasingly become the focus of attention in the world, and the Pentagon is clearly already concerned about this. In the United States, cyber-destruction and information theft are listed as the first threats to national security over terrorist groups and weapons of mass destruction.

Like the security professionals in the business, the Pentagon's information security team also has to sit on the computer for a long time, analyzing code and detecting vulnerabilities, a tedious task that requires advanced engineering skills. Although the Pentagon's network is scanned millions of times a day, enemy hackers are trying to invade without a mechanism to issue alarms. To this end, the Pentagon has decided to build the world's first fully intuitive network battlefield warning and defense system, the goal is once the network was attacked the system can be notified immediately.

According to the introduction, through this system, the combat room only on the tablet touch screen point, you can analyze the health of the entire network, to find the malicious computer sneak, and the attack with rich graphics and 3D visualization display, so as to facilitate the perception of the monitor. And defensive action does not require complex steps, simply dragging code blocks from a market or virtual shelf like an Apple App store to a compromised network to complete defensive action. Even the future plans to deploy the action in a completely immersive virtual reality experience using a Oculus-like rift device.

Although the X plan is still in its early stages, the effect has been considerable. One effect is to accelerate the deployment of military operations. The operations that took months to plan the deployment now take only 72 hours to complete the preparation, testing, and deployment. In view of the past, the Internet, GPS, video conferencing and other advanced technologies are first developed from the DARPA here, so its system may one day be able to use the daily life, to protect the health and safety of home network and equipment.
