Full Description

The SoURCE CODE program is seeking to provide novel technologies to assist forensic experts in making determinations of the most likely attackers, based on coding styles. The program will explore full feature spaces in binary code and source code files to measure the similarity between files and provide information to forensic experts to the likely origins (country, groups, individuals, etc.). This capability would enable the automated matching of similar binaries from known samples, allowing analysts to speed up the attribution of malicious attacks to improve law enforcement and intelligence community responses. IARPA is seeking innovative solutions for the SoURCE CODE Program in this BAA. 12/13/2023 - Amendment 001: The BAA is being amended to update sections in response to the Questions and Answers (Q&A) Round 1 submissions, extend the window to request access the classified addendum to January 5, 2024, @ 5:00 PM, reopen the Q&A period for any additional questions closes January 2, 2024, @ 5:00 PM, and clarify the due date for the proposals submitted against all Technical Areas as February 16, 2024, @ 5:00 PM.
