Mission:

To be the World’s First Terabit Optical Network

How:

Going all the way from digital and optical components,

through transmission sub-systems to a fully

functioning network.

TeraSanta: Terabit Optical Network

Adapt and Reuse of wireless DSP algorithms

Coherent Channel Degrees-of-Freedom

How is it done: Key Enabling Technologies

Cabarnit Analysis of

Network Cyber Attacks

Identify & asses cyber threats

enable development of new defense mechanisms

Using real time multi-layered approach

Cabarnit: Consortium approach

The Consortium for Analysis of Network Cyber Attacks

Behavioral identification of threats rather then signature based

Use machine learning, heuristics & Artificial Intelligence

Analyze all threats all the time

Process large amounts of data

Life is simple: You do something. Most fails. Some works.

You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else.

The trick is the doing something else.
