MBS
Ammunition Information System
HAVELSAN GUARD Turkish Armed Forces Secure Internet Project
HAVELSAN GUARD is the first national product that has been developed to provide secure data transfer between systems operating at different security zones, one HIGH (e.g., Turkish military or classified government systems) and one LOW (e.g., public civilian networks).
Using a firewall system to automate data transfer between physically connected networks having different security levels is a risky solution since firewalls cannot guarantee protection against attacks based on standard protocols such as TCP/IP and cannot prevent leakage of classified information.
On the other hand, traditional way of transmitting data from unclassified network to the classified network manually via a removable media is not practical due to continuous connectivity requirement of on-line systems.
GUARD Technical Features
• Based on customized hardened UNIX kernel
• Firewall, IDS and Integrity Check abilities integrated with GUARD operating system
• Configured to run only necessary GUARD services
• Advanced rule-based filtering of fixed formatted data
• Content inspection of unformatted text (keyword search)
• Easy to use local GUI management with advanced logging capability
• Extendable for custom security requirements
• Proprietary protocol design for one-way data transfer
• Advanced Error Detection and Correction Mechanisms for the assurance of one-way data transfer
• Lightweight integration with third party virus detection programs for malicious code scanning
ASAOpen Skies Treaty Observation Aircraft
HAVELSAN Inc. has designed, developed and manufactured
