Secure Network Architecture and Processing (SNAP) Introduction • SNAP provides a robust high assurance information assurance infrastructure • Provide a MLS Network supporting MILS/MLS processing • Based on secure labeling which is cryptographically bound • Core Trusted Security Engine (TSE) is reused across the multiple security elements providing mandatory access control • SNAP benefits • Provides Open Architecture/Open Business model • Allows applications to be ported without the knowledge of underlying security • Leverages COTS industry investment • Reduce system costs • Reduced certification costs and risks • Low SWaP • Scalable solution • Provides a very flexible IA infrastructure
SNAP Guiding Principles High assurance infrastructure that is: certifiable, configurable, and scalable
Security Segregation Enables a Cost Effective IA Infrastructure • Information Assurance Segregation • COTS/NDI base cards provide basic functionality • High assurance functions provide by separate composable, loosely coupled HW and SW elements. Coupling to COTS occurs over open interfaces • Allows evolutionary, scalable approach and minimizes recertification costs • Can add / upgrade processing elements with mitigated impact to deployed systems Open Network Interface Black Router & Link Controller MLS NIC MLS HAIPE COTS Processor COTS Processor MILS & MLS Processing MLS NIC Open Platform Interface MLS NIC MLSSwitch COTS Processor COTS Processor Platform CDS Platform CDS I/O Module I/O Mezz Legend: COTS/NDI High Assurance (HA) Platform Customized
Scalable and Configurable for Airborne, Sea, Land, and Undersea HA Composable Components Tactical Platforms Command and Control MLS NIC MLS Switch MLS HAIPE® 5th Generation Platforms Small Form Factor Architecture must be scalable, configurable, reprogrammable and flexible to support the legacy to net-centric mission
Secure Network Architecture and Processing • Flexible approaches for new solutions or major modifications • Scalable processing • Scalable mass memory • Virtualized processing functions • MLS NIC and MLS Switch • Labeled IP Option • Significant SWaP Benefit • Enabler for Support of High Number of Security Enclaves • Computer Network Defenses • (IPS, Firewalls) • SOA Components • Translations Software • Network Management • Secure OS Agnostic • Processor Agnostic – x86 or PPC • Maximizes the Processing Efficiency • Reduction in costs by consolidation of processors High Assurance Multi-Level Platform Solutions: Certifiable Configurable Scalable • Cross Domain Solution • Guards, Diodes, Graders, Down Graders • Necessary for moving data into MLS Applications • Transfers data from System High to Multi-Level Environment • Tactical Browser • Encrypted Storage • Minimal Declassification Time • Supports mobile classified data
Secure Network Architecture and Processing Notional Tactical Implementation • Adding net-centric computingto legacy platforms • Net-centric applications • IP-based functions enable cross platform translation • Distribution of data increases effectiveness • Minimize impact to legacy platforms • Net-Centric applications can be supported with the supplemental processing • Scalable functions • SNAP architecture enables control points for computer network defense • SNAP is an evolutionary, high-speed, low-latency, multi-level solution
Notional “Wide Body” C-2 Platform Implementation • Support for legacy networks • Can incrementally add multi-level infrastructure • Can leverage existing capabilities • Support for sensors and roll-on pallets • Can support single level or multi-level roll-on applications by setting MLS Switch security policy appropriately • Can support single level legacy sensors or new multi-level sensor by setting security policy appropriately
