Advanced Cryptological Sys Eng (CCOP)
Abstract
The Advanced Cryptologic Systems Engineering - CCOP rapidly develops and fields state-of-the-art signal acquisition capabilities in response to Combatant Command requirements to provide augmentable, quick-reaction surface, subsurface and airborne cryptologic carry-on capabilities. There are approximately 124 cryptologic capable surface ships and shore sites in the current Naval inventory; each is a potential user of this carry-on equipment, depending on deployment schedules and the tempo of operations. In addition, there are other numerous Naval platforms (including U.S. Coast Guard and USNS) that could serve as potential users. This funding line provides 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 providing system and mission management, product reporting, and data analysis. COTS / GOTS system documentation and training materials require adaptation or modification to meet fleet operator requirements, or entirely new training materials may need to be developed. Prior to operational deployment, 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) requirements to allow connection to Navy networks. Funding 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. Funding will support development and integration efforts to fuse data produced and distributed by Shipboard IW / Information Operations (IO) systems with other intelligence data at multiple classification levels which is then provided to shipboard combat systems to support kinetic (bombs, mortars, missiles, bullets, etc.) and non-kinetic fires (electronic attack, lasers, cyber) in order to enable a more agile, effective and complete exploitation of the electromagnetic spectrum.
