Efficient execution is key to real-time mission-critical operating systems software, yet new demands are emerging such as safety-critical operations for avionics and other life-critical applications.

Programs like the National Security Agency’s Commercial Solutions for Classified could be a path to transmit classified information without specialized hardware.

Awareness is mounting regarding the importance of protecting data-at-rest (DAR) on deployed military platforms.

Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components are being embraced so the technology can be serviced at the base instead of waiting for specialized parts or sending the system back state-side.

PacStar Enterprise CSfC Solutions (ECS), is a suite of enterprise gateway services designed for classified networks using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products.

This technology invention resulted from PacStar’s early and continued significant investment in development of tactical systems designed to meet the security and configuration requirements of the National Security Agency CSfC program.

PacStar ECS is a family of gateway solutions that scale from small installations with less than 100 secure connections to large enterprise-class services supporting thousands of concurrent users.

COTS FTI System Demo Showcases “Total System Solution” Ethernet-based Data Acquisition System with Industry’s Smallest 10 GbE Recorder and Most Powerful and Future Ready DAS Solutions.

Newer on-vehicle integrated networks will be composed of heterogeneous networks in the form of software and equipment from multiple commercial vendors.

The demo features L3Harris’s FliteScene® Digital Moving Map Software, Green Hills Software INTEGRITY-178® tuMP RTOS, and Curtiss-Wright Single Board Computers and Graphics Modules.

Featured products will include ultra-small form factor mission computers and network switches, rugged high capacity storage solutions - such as the Data Transport System, and size, weight, and power (SWaP)-optimized embedded avionics systems - such as the ultra-lightweight Fortress Crash Protected Recorder.

Rugged RVG-MS1 video gateway/video multiplexer manages analog & digital sensor inputs while easing operator-defined selection of mission display views.
