Description
1. To address the short comings in existing forensics bridge design, reduce the workload of system security staff, and increase the security of assured file transfers, Idaho Scientific proposes a nine month, $150k effort to design and prototype a Secure Assured File Transfer drive. (SAFE-T Drive) is a high assurance purpose built AFT drive with an integrated forensics bridge. SAFE-T Drive will fill the role of protecting the virus scanning system and replace CDs and DVDs as the limited means in which to move data between systems. The goal of this phase I SBIR is to develop a proof of concept prototype demonstrating the security functions of SAFE-T Drive. If successful, Idaho Scientific will propose a follow-on Phase II effort to mature the prototype to a production ready product that Idaho Scientific will offer for use by security professionals in high assurance environments.
