NARF Industries PLC on Tuesday said it has won a $1.3 million subcontract from Charles River Analytics.

NARF Industries is a London-based cybersecurity group which specialises in high-end threat intelligence and critical infrastructure security. Its shares were up 7.0% to 1.34 pence each in London on Tuesday morning.

The subcontract is for work on the US government’s Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Agency ReSCIND programme.

The IARPA programme ‘looks to increase the time, effort, and resources required to attack network vulnerabilities by more deeply understanding a cyber attacker’s decisions and choices.’

NARF said: ‘NARF is pleased to have been selected by CRA for this transformative project. This collaboration positions NARF alongside a team of leading researchers, contributing its expertise and dedication to advancing the next generation of active defence for critical systems.’
