Kratos' RT Logic Introduces CyberC4(TM):Armor for Hardening SATCOM Equipment Against Cyber Attacks
CyberC4:Armor Provides Protection Against Cyber Attacks & Tampering on Satellite Ground Networks
Product Introduction at National Space Symposium,
CyberC4:Armor applies military grade system hardening technology for the protection of Linux-based front-end processors, modems, recorders, and other SATCOM equipment against the most sophisticated cyber attacks and tampering, including zero-day exploits and high-risk insider threats. CyberC4:Armor is designed to prevent reverse-engineering, runtime debugging, and execution of unauthorized code, such as the kind that might be transmitted via an email phishing attempt or the insertion of a malware-infected thumb drive.
As satellite ground networks rely more and more upon IP-based technologies, it brings additional 'surface area' for cyber security attacks. "Protecting SATCOM devices at the network edge often only focuses on external cyber threats," said
CyberC4:Armor uses a hardware-assisted hardening technique to cryptographically bind the hardware, firmware, and software for protection against the most sophisticated exploits. Detecting tamper attempts, CyberC4:Armor can respond by running any customer specified application action such as locking out the user, phoning home over TCP/IP, or executing a custom decoy application.
Hardening is performed in RT Logic's production facility and can be tailored to meet specific customer requirements.
CyberC4:Armor is the latest in RT Logic's CyberC4 line of cyber security and mission assurance solutions. The integrated family of products developed for the unique needs of satellite environments includes: CyberC4:Alert, for network-wide real-time situational awareness; CyberC4:Capture, for protecting against insider threats; and CyberC4:Guard, a cross domain solution for exchanging AFSCN message traffic between security domains.
RT Logic is a leading provider of innovative products for ground stations, satellite test equipment and satellite operations. RT Logic's products are trusted on over 85% of space missions.
The CyberC4 products will be demonstrated at
