01What it does

What Mitre Engenuity Incorporated does

Mission

Mitre engenuity is a research and development organization that works in the public interest to create generational impact in various areas such as cybersecurity, healthcare, transportation, and wireless security. The organization's research output works to solve technical public interest challenges that affect an entire industry or sector.

As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.

Program

Att&ck evaluations provide vendors with an assessment of their ability to defend against specific adversary tactics and techniques. Engenuity openly publishes the results to provide industry end-users of these cybersecurity products with the information they need to make good decisions about what is best for their organizations.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.

How it's funded, over time

Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
