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.

Abstract: A system includes programmable systolic cryptographic modules for security processing of packets from a data source. A first programmable input/output interface routes each incoming packet to one of the systolic cryptographic modules for encryption processing. A second programmable input/output interface routes the encrypted packets from the one systolic cryptographic module to a common data storage. In one embodiment, the first programmable input/output interface is coupled to an interchangeable physical interface that receives the incoming packets from the data source. In another embodiment, each cryptographic module includes a programmable systolic packet input engine, a programmable cryptographic engine, and a programmable systolic packet output engine, each configured as a systolic array (e.g., using FPGAs) for data processing.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods related to securely transmitting data between a portable storage or other medium and a data storage system. In one approach, a portable storage medium drive reads data from a portable storage medium, and a password key decryption unit automatically decrypts the data using a password key in response to having obtained the password key. A storage key encryption unit automatically encrypts the first password key decrypted data using a storage key in response to an availability of the password key decrypted data. A storage interface automatically transmits the storage key encrypted data to the data storage system in response to an availability of the storage key encrypted data.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided that provide a portable, cryptographic hardware-software device allowing balancing of the needed heightened security while maintaining the modified communication device's original features and value. The system comprises a single chip comprising a self-contained security boundary and cryptographic processing, and is enabled to quickly and easily connect to and modify an existing, commercial, off the shelf mobile communication device. The systems may be enabled to modify the existing device by being contained in hardware, for example the battery of a smart phone. Then, the system may be connected to the existing device's interface, for example via a “micro-USB” or other suitable connection, and subsequently provide cryptographic functionality to the existing device.
