Cybersecurity and Navy Information Dominance
See What’s on the Cyber Horizon:
Cyber R&D Center of Excellence
The Software Engineering Institute and Carnegie Mellon University are collaborating to create a Cyber R&D Center of Excellence that would leverage an operational imperative to pioneer and evolve advanced information technology into an affordable, executable, and secure global architecture within the Cyber Domain. This would strategically align cross-disciplinary teams in the information dominance corps and strengthen our war-fighting capabilities in cyber-centric operations.

Welcome AFCEA Navy Information Dominance Attendees
The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) is proud to be a part of the AFCEA Navy Information Dominance Day. For over 25 years, the SEI has partnered with the DoD, Intelligence Community, and other federal agencies to provide technologies, services, and initiatives that produce high-impact solutions through innovative research and development.
Mapping the Cyber Domain:
The SEI and our Mission Areas
The SEI’s Mission Areas exemplify the type of work we are currently researching and developing with a continued focus on moving forward into innovative and dynamic sectors. The Mission Areas are the framework for the technologies and services we provide, such as XNET/cyber training, digital forensics, and malware analysis.
