MULTI-LEVEL SECURITY SYSTEM FOR AMPHIBIOUS OPERATION COMMAND AND CONTROL

SOFTWARE DEVELOPED TO FACILITATE A MULTI-LEVEL SECURITY SYSTEM MUST MEET A VARIETY OF SECURITY AND PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS IN AN OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENT. WE PROPOSE TO ANALYZE, DESIGN AND DEVELOP A SECURITY SYSTEM FOR THE MARINE CORPS COMMAND AND CONTROL SYSTEM BY EMPLOYING STATE-OF-THE-ART SYSTEM ENGINEERING METHODOLOGIES, TECHNIQUES AND PRINCIPLES. SRA WILL EMPLOY A SYSTEM LIFE CYCLE APPROACH TO: CONDUCT A SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF THE MARINE CORPS IMMEDIATE AND LONG-TERM SYSTEM SECURITY REQUIREMENTS; IDENTIFY ANY EXISTING SYSTEM SECURITY PRODUCTS FOR NEAR TERM APPLICATION; DETERMINE WHAT PRODUCTS AND INTEGRATION PROCESS ARE REQUIRED TO SATISFY CURRENT SECURITY REQUIREMENTS; DEVELOP A PROTOTYPE SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION PLAN (PAPER PROOF-OF-CONCEPT); AND IDENTIFY CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR REQUIREMENT SATISFACTION IN THE EVENT THAT SECURITY SOFTWARE OR THE HARDWARE FOR PHASE II IS NOT READILY AVAILABLE FOR INTEGRATION INTO THE PROTOTYPE SYSTEM. THIS APPROACH WILL PROVIDE THE MARINE CORPS WITH THE OPTIMAL APPROACH FOR THE SOLUTION OF WHAT IS A LONG-TERM REQUIREMENT FOR MULTI-LEVEL SECURITY.
