Embedded Crypto Modernization (CRYPTO MOD)
Abstract
Embedded Cryptographic Modernization Initiative (ECMI) is an upgrade activity that will ensure enduring Army radios remain secure by operating with modern crypto keys. Tactical radios using embedded cryptographic systems will no longer be able to communicate securely after Crypto Keys expire due to Cease Key dates documented in the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Staff instruction (CJCSI) 6510. In order to ensure Warfighters continue to have secured communications (i.e., encrypted data and voice), Army tactical radios are required to modernize their cryptographic capabilities by implementing the modern algorithms. If cease key dates are not met, Army will be forced to communicate at risk.
