Defense Threat Reduction Agency STTR topic — Accepting submissions 2026-12-02 to 2027-01-06. The proliferation of dual-use biological technologies and automated, high-containment laboratories globally presents a profound challenge to arms control verification and biosurveillance [3]. A state-sponsored facility operating under a declared, peaceful mandate (e.g., vaccine development, agricultural research) possesses all the necessary infrastructure, reagents, and personnel to rapidly pivot to unauthorized, non-compliant, or undeclared high-risk biological material production [2]. Current verification methods rely heavily on periodic physical inspections, voluntary declarations, and audits of digital LIMS. However, advanced adversaries can digitally spoof BMS, manipulate LIMS records, and co...
