On March 5, Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced that the United States Army has selected Keysight’s CyPerf network design and verification solution to validate performance, resiliency, and zero trust security for their Unified Network Program during Cyber Quest ’25 (CQ25).
Organized by the U.S. Army Futures Command, CQ25 is a crucial event for national security, bringing together the private sector, government, and academia to evaluate, develop, and benchmark cutting-edge technologies to address critical gaps in cybersecurity, electronic warfare, intelligence, and signal operations. As cyber threats, electronic warfare, and Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) evolve, the nature of warfare is forever changed. MDO, a military concept developed by the U.S. Army, focuses on integrating and synchronizing operations across multiple domains — land, sea, air, space, and cyberspace, to achieve strategic and operational advantages over adversaries.
The U.S. Army’s Unified Network Program is a key driver for achieving MDO by 2028, enabling the creation of a seamless, resilient, and secure end-to-end network that supports operations across all domains from the office to complex, contested, or hostile environments. The program will equip U.S. forces with the technologies they need to operate effectively and securely in any environment, with access to necessary data anytime, anywhere, regardless of where it is stored.
Major James Harryman, action officer, CQ25, said, “As we rapidly advance to an increasingly complex battlefield, understanding how we will implement zero trust principles at the tactical edge is imperative. Agility of deployed networks, increased security of assets, and greater interoperability are all potential results of this implementation, and CQ25 is excited to team up with Keysight and use its CyPerf capabilities to prove these underlying principles.”
Ram Periakaruppan, vice president and general manager, network test and security solutions, Keysight, said, “Keysight is honored to collaborate with the U.S. Army at Cyber Quest ’25, bringing our advanced design and verification capabilities to assess and monitor the Unified Network’s performance and security. CyPerf empowers the U.S. Army to confidently navigate the complexities of zero trust architectures and their Multi-Domain Operations, ensuring the network remains resilient, secure, and mission-ready in any environment.”
