# Securing Artificial Intelligence for Battlefield Effective Robustness SABER is described in the article as a DARPA program building a sustainable operational AI red-team capability for deployed battlefield systems. ## Assessment surface The program addresses data poisoning, adversarial patches, model stealing, and electronic-warfare attacks through recurring test-and-evaluation cycles referred to as SABER-OpX. ## Architectural role SABER moves [[AI Immune Systems]] from static laboratory evaluation toward recurrent operational challenge. The system is not assumed safe because it passed one benchmark or predeployment review. ## Boundary The article classifies the program as confirmed while preserving the distinction between program objective, contractor award, tested capability, and fielded operational performance. ## Source [[articles/Cognitive-Cyber Warfare Measures and Countermeasures#DARPA and IARPA Research Leads|Cognitive-Cyber Warfare — SABER]].
