OMG's
High Assurance Security
Workshop & MILS Demo
will be held on July 14,
2009 in Arlington, VA, USA.
This workshop will be
co-located with other OMG
workshops and special
interest sessions including
Government DTF; Real-time
& Embedded Systems;
Green Computing; and Cloud
Computing. For more
information on the High
Assurance Security Workshop,
visit http://www.omg.org/has.
The
morning session is targeted
at business/managers and
will feature sessions on
common problems and
solutions, and the Multiple
Independent Levels of
Security (MILS)
demonstration from top
vendors; the afternoon
session will be more
in-depth and technical.

Multiple
Independent Levels of
Security (MILS) Demo
Global defense contractors
today are challenged with
delivering secure
communication systems with
more functionality,
supporting multiple domains,
and higher assurance in a
platform that is smaller in
size, weight, and power (SWaP).
This directive cannot be
satisfied using traditional
federated military
platforms.
To
create small and lightweight
yet powerful components for
future systems demanding the
support of multilevel secure
(MLS) communications, the
MILS (multiple independent
levels of security)
architecture is now being
implemented in leading
military programs. MILS is
an emerging system
architecture based on proven
real-time operating systems
concepts. This technology
integrates multiple
applications at different
security levels on a single
microprocessor. To be a
suitable base for very high
assurance systems, MILS is
evaluated at the highest
levels of Common Criteria
(CC) security certification.
Four
of the largest defense
contractors in the world,
Boeing, Raytheon, Lockheed
Martin, and Rockwell
Collins, will demonstrate
this solution at the High
Assurance Security Workshop.
These leading defense
suppliers, along with their
software partners, will
participate in a joint
simulated combat
search-and-rescue
demonstration in which enemy
jet fighter aircraft and
missiles identified and will
be destroyed to enable the
successful recovery of a
downed pilot. This
multi-vendor demonstration
will feature the MILS
approach to information
assurance, which can use
Common Criteria-evaluated
off-the-shelf products as a
base to achieve secure
information sharing in the
battle space. This
demonstration will show a
new approach for building
MLS systems in a notional
integrated battlefield using
MILS solutions across
companies and systems.
