The abbreviated term “CUSM SDN 2025” refers to the Center for Unmanned Systems and Data Networking Software Defined Networking 2025. The CUSM SDN 2025 program is a collaborative effort between the United States Navy and industry partners to develop and demonstrate the next generation of software-defined networking (SDN) technologies for use in naval applications.
The program aims to create a more efficient, flexible, and secure network infrastructure for the Navy. SDN is a network architecture that allows for the programmatic control of network devices and services. This enables network administrators to manage and configure networks more efficiently and to respond more quickly to changing needs.
