  • Multi-independent level security for high performance computing and data storage systems
    Patent number: 11968187
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for a MILS HPC, data storage system (DSS) system architecture that incorporates a multi-crypto module (MCM) to provide end-to-end multi-independent level security (MILS) protection. Configuration of each MCM enables a high performance computing (HPC) resource to compute different security domains with the associated security level keys from a key/node manager. The HPC resource can be dynamically re-allocated to different security level domain(s) by the key/node manager. In one embodiment, the DSS stores encrypted data regardless of the domains.
    Type: Grant
