CROWS

Cyber Resiliency Office for Weapon Systems

ACCELERATING CHANGE
AT THE SPEED OF RELEVANCE

WHO WE ARE

CROWS is an Air Force level, interdisciplinary organization established under the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology & Logistics) to ensure Air Force weapon systems can perform their missions in a cyber-contested environment.

HOW WE DO IT

We partner with acquisition, operational and test communities to assess the fielded fleet and with Program Executive Offices to prototype mitigation solutions.

Additionally, we deliver tools, cyber-focused intelligence, a common security environment, education, training, and a cybersavvy workforce to program offices—providing them the capability to do for their systems what CROWS does for the Acquisition Enterprise.
