In order to ensure the effective deployment and operational use of new cybersecurity innovations, the “valley of death” chasm must be bridged by technology transition through cooperative efforts and investments by both research and acquisition communities. The Cyber Technology Evaluation and Transition (CTET) program provides a coordinated process of assessments, evaluations, and operational experiments and pilots in order to transition the fruits of research into practice. The CTET Program carries out its activities through the following projects:

• Cyber Security Assessment and Evaluation
• Cyber Security Experiments and Pilots
• Transition to Practice (CNCI)
