Register for the SVIP Software ADG Generation Industry Day for informative live discussions and Q&A with SVIP and CISA!
Hosted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) Silicon Valley Innovation Program (SVIP), in partnership with the DHS Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Industry Day will feature a panel discussion with experts who have worked on different parts of the software identification puzzle over the past decade, provide descriptive use cases and detailed information about the technical requirements, submission process, and resources available to startups interested in submitting applications to the Software ADG Generation Topic Call. Join us on Oct 17, 2024, from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. PT in-person in Menlo Park, CA or livestreamed via Zoom.
Organizations interested in learning about the DHS mission need and technology requirements are welcome to attend this hybrid event. Attendees joining in-person also have an opportunity to meet with DHS subject matter experts and program managers. Learn more at event registration.
At the Industry Day, attendees will learn more about the SVIP Software ADG Generation solicitation which seeks solutions to better understand, manage, and reduce risk to the software that powers the cyber and physical infrastructure that people rely on every day. Software ADGs help identify and track source codes that are incorporated into software without any effort from developers. By enabling automatic visibility and verification of what goes into a piece of software, this capability is intended to enhance vulnerability management, ensure safer and more stable applications, and ultimately help reduce the risk of cyberattacks that can compromise personal data and privacy. View the Topic Call on SAM.gov for requirements and deadline information.

SVIP is keeping pace with the innovation community to tackle the hardest problems faced by DHS and the Homeland Security Enterprise. SVIP expands DHS S&T’s reach to find new technologies that strengthen national security with the goal of reshaping how government, entrepreneurs and industry work together to find cutting-edge solutions. We offer U.S. and international start-ups non-dilutive funding to carry out prototype projects and possibly transition successful projects to production.
