Secure Mission-Critical
Data at the Edge

Sensitive and classified data is stored across tactical systems, vehicle and autonomous platforms, and supporting infrastructure. Cigent protects that data with layered CSfC data-at-rest (DAR) solutions designed for mission systems.

National Security Systems Carry Data Missions Depend On

Defense programs depend on data stored across tactical compute, vehicle and weapon systems, autonomous platforms, laptops, workstations, servers, and embedded devices. If a system leaves authorized control, the data it carries can expose operations, intelligence, system capabilities, and future missions.

Cigent protects that sensitive and classified data across mission systems with CSfC-listed secure SSDs paired with Pre Boot Authentication (PBA), and Software Full Drive Encryption for data-at-rest security.

MISSION DATA IS NOT EXPENDABLE

Devices can hold information that remains operationally valuable long after a device leaves authorized control, including:
MISSION PLANS AND OPERATIONAL DATA
INTELLIGENCE AND RECONNAISSANCE DATA
SYSTEM AND PAYLOAD CONFIGURATIONS
COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORK DATA
ADDITIONAL SENSITIVE DATA

A Layered Approach to Mission Data Protection

High-assurance data protection for mission systems requires more than encrypted drives. Access to that encrypted data must also remain controlled before it becomes available.

Cigent Encrypted Storage Solutions pair hardware full drive encryption (HWFDE) with Cigent Pre-Boot Authentication, so protected data remains locked until an authorized user or system successfully authenticates. Cigent Software Full Drive Encryption (SWFDE) provides an additional, independent inner layer of encryption and authentication for a defense in depth architecture designed to the NSA Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) Data at Rest Capability Package.
