Secure Database Data Transfer with Starlight

Abstract

There is a requirement in defence to connect secure computing facilities to unclassified information sources such as the Internet. This is particularly so in the database arena where data stored in differently classified databases must be shared. The Starlight Interactive Link, was developed to connect computers of differing security classifications in a trusted manner to enable a one way flow of data from the lower to the higher classified system. Using the Starlight Interactive Link we have developed methodologies for secure data transfer between databases resident on computing systems classified at different levels, and constructed a prototype demonstration system using these techniques.
