CFT is designed to fund research to be performed by boutique security companies, individuals, and hacker/maker-spaces, and allow them to keep the commercial Intellectual Property for what they create. The goal is not to have these entities focus on solving DoD problems, but rather to fund research efforts these organizations would have considered on their own but are not pursuing due to complexity/cost/time/etc. Where it is an effort that may help the community at large it is almost by definition within the running lanes of CFT to consider. What's good for the community is good for DARPA. Please note, CFT does not purchase existing technology, nor does it fund efforts to perform engineering modifications to existing (or known) technologies. This is a research effort."
Cyber Fast Track (CFT) has resulted in funded security research and has been featured at several prominent events.
