In the dynamic landscape of cyberspace, attackers continually look for and exploit vulnerabilities in critical systems and infrastructure. System owners and defenders need greater assurances that infrastructure and applications are safe and secure. These assurances are gained through testing and evaluation of security control implementation throughout the entire lifecycle of software and systems.

PNNL brings cybersecurity research and expertise to important national missions. Our cybersecurity experts continuously investigate, experiment, design, create, and review solutions focused on securing the engineering lifecycle of infrastructure technology. We drive cybersecurity and resiliency projects from beginning to end, ensuring systems are designed, developed, deployed, operated, and retired safely, securely, and resiliently.

In response to sponsor needs, PNNL established the Internet of Things Common Operating Environment research and development laboratory, providing researchers with a 360-degree view of interconnected devices that allows them to tackle the current and future challenges brought by new technologies of the connected devices domain.
