Guaranteed Architectures for Physical Security (GAPS)

Abstract

The Guaranteed Architectures for Physical Security (GAPS) program is developing hardware security and software architectures with provable security interfaces. These interfaces will physically isolate high-risk transactions during both system design and system build, and will ensure that such protections are enforced at run-time. GAPS will reduce the inherent complexity through the development of hardware and software that is open, extendible, and compatible with size, weight, and power constrained environments to enable security across DoD and commercial systems. The program will substantially lower the barrier to safely enabling high-risk transactions, thus allowing for fast computer-to-computer transactions, physical spatial isolation reducing the need for unreliable software partitioning solutions, and more complex missions without putting sensitive data at risk. Basic research for this program is funded within PE 0601101E, Project ES-02.
