Mercury’s Secure Encryptor Now Available for Integration into Military Platforms Across the Defense Industry
11 Setembro 2023 - 5:15PM
Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com), a technology
company that delivers processing power for the most demanding
aerospace and defense missions, today announced the availability of
its JDAR Type-1 encryptor module, which protects U.S. government
classified and sensitive data in use on military platforms
operating in tactical environments.
Mercury’s JDAR data-at-rest encryptor received NSA Type-1
encryption certification in 2022, and it has since been integrated
into several of the company’s data storage and transfer solutions
that have been deployed across multiple U.S. airborne platforms.
Now, JDAR will be made available for standalone purchase to the
U.S. military organizations and contractors as well as the Five
Eyes Alliance.
Why It MattersOperating in tactical
environments increases the vulnerability of sensitive data, and
adversaries can potentially gain access to data that is lost or
compromised. JDAR’s NSA type-1 encryption prevents unauthorized
personnel from gaining access to inactive classified mission data.
Suitable for many types of manned and unmanned airborne platforms
and ground vehicles, the module protects classified information
ranging from confidential to secret, making it easier for operators
to physically move mission data during operations without risk of
compromise.
“Mercury’s JDAR Type-1 encryptor module introduces a new
solution to the Department of Defense that is smaller, lighter,
easier to integrate, and capable of operating in more extreme
environments,” said Roya Montakhab, Mercury’s Senior Vice President
for Mission Systems. “The protection of critical data is of the
utmost importance to organizations that support U.S. and allied
national security, and our encryption module is the most secure,
capable solution for armed forces operating in tactical
environments.”
Purpose-Built to Protect Data-at-Rest
- NSA Certified Type-1 encryptor
- Small form-factor for easy integration: 5.04 x 3.94 x 0.63
inches, weight less than 1 pound
- Lower power consumption: less than 7-watt power
consumption
- Operating temperature at -40°C to +85°C
- Cold start <12 seconds for faster boot up
- Four lanes to connect SATA hard drives
- Common open standard interfaces and VNX/3U VPX connectors that
allow system integrators to integrate encryption capabilities into
existing rackmount or embedded systems.
JDAR is now available for purchase. For more information, visit
