Scalable Transparency Architecture for Research Collaboration (STARC)-DARPA Transparent Computing (TC) Program

Abstract

The STARC project designed, built, and operated a test range and infrastructure to support the development and operation of systems designed to detect and identify malware, most importantly Advanced Persistent Threats operating in a heterogeneous enterprise environment. This effort also involved developing a cross-system event logging system and a policy enforcement module that could read these events and a policy statement, make decisions as to whether or not a proposed action should be allowed or blocked, and return this decision to an endpoint to be acted upon. This program demonstrated that such a system is feasible and deserves further investigation and development.
