CACI International Inc (NYSE MKT: CACI) and Virginia Tech’s Ted

announced today that they have entered into a partnership to
develop the next generation of technology leaders in cyber-physical
system security. During the five-year partnership, CACI will be an
anchor partner in the Hume Center’s Cyber-Physical System Security
(CPSS) program, with a focus on cyber security for unmanned aerial

and the Hume Center’s CPSS Lab, and provide industry mentoring and
research support for undergraduate and graduate students.
The Hume Center at Virginia Tech is a leading research
institution, sponsoring cutting-edge research into the biggest
threats facing America’s national security. Under the terms of this
agreement, CACI will be working closely with academic experts and
students at the Hume Center to develop curriculum, research
initiatives, and support projects focused on cyber security threats
to platforms, specifically including UAVs. This partnership will
help both organizations meet the pressing demand for highly
trained, highly skilled national security professionals.
Hume Center Director Charles Clancy said, “We are extremely
excited to be working with CACI as an anchor partner in our CPSS
program. Their commitment to innovation from today’s youth,
post-graduate opportunities in national security, and focus on the
benefits of research to mitigate key national security threats
makes this a unique match that will help our students and faculty
stay on the cutting edge of innovative national security technology
and practices.”

“The threat of cyber attacks on platforms like unmanned aerial
vehicles, as well as industrial control systems, vehicles, and even
weapon systems, grows more pressing every day. At CACI, we take
great pride in helping customers counter these threats, and we are
exceptionally proud to be developing the next generation of
national security leaders through this partnership with the Hume
Center and Virginia Tech.”
