Cryptologic Direct Support

Abstract

The Advanced Cryptologic Systems Engineering - Cryptologic Carry On Program develops state-of-the-art signal acquisition software in response to Combatant Command requirements for a quick-reaction surface, subsurface and airborne cryptologic carry-on capability. There are approximately 100 cryptologic capable surface ships in the current Navy inventory. Each of these ships is a potential user of this carry-on equipment, depending on deployment schedules and the tempo of operations. In addition, there are numerous subsurface and air platforms that are also potential users. This funding line will provide the resources to enable rapid transition of available Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) and Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) technologies that apply to Fleet requirements for carry-on system functionalities. These technologies typically require various levels of integration to leverage on-board systems that provide system and mission management, product reporting and data analysis. COTS/GOTS system documentation and training materials usually require some level of adaptation or modification to meet fleet operator requirements, or entirely new training materials may need to be developed. Before deployment for operational use, systems must be systematically tested to ensure suitable and reliable operation, tested for network vulnerabilities if connected to shipboard Local Area Networks, and tested relative to interoperability requirements. Certification testing is conducted to meet Office of Naval Intelligence security requirements and network testing is conducted in accordance with Information Technology (IT)-21 requirements to allow connection to Navy networks. This Research, Development, Test & Evaluation will also provide resources to address rapid deployment of enhancements or improvements to the common hardware and/or software baseline of all other carry-on subsystems to meet emergent requirements.
