(Phys.org) —DARPA has been not-so-secretly working on a way to allow less technically proficient cyber troops to engage in cyber wars. The answer is apparently Plan X, a hardware and software platform solution that allows people that are not technically proficient in cyber warfare to engage using software that resembles a videogame. As part of its official announcement and call for proposals, the agency has outlined a specific type of product that it believes will give the U.S. a clear advantage in engaging in cyber warfare.
