Webinar | Raising the Bar on Cross Domain Security

As cyber threats from criminal organizations and nation-states continue to rise, it’s critical that military and government organizations protect systems from these persistent threats. Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) have been protecting the sharing of sensitive information and are required for connecting networks of differing security levels. Specific technical requirements and certifications are established by the US National Security Agency (NSA) National Cross Domain Strategy and Management Office (NCDSMO). With the recent release of the Owl RTB-Ready Scowt tactical CDS platform, Owl is sharing how we are complying with NCDSMO “Raise the Bar” (RTB) for CDS standards, and new guidelines in order to better protect sensitive networks and data. Leveraging 20 years’ experience of working with NCDSMO, Owl will discuss RTB-compliant design patterns for recursive decomposition of complex file types; using a linear process for message based protocols; and integrating Data Format Description Language (DFDL) to extend supported data types without additional certification.
