Sentar Wins MDA Phase I
for Software Risk Assessment Technology Development
April 27, 2010Software from third parties is often used in mission
critical systems. While known malicious code will be identified
during normal test and evaluation processes, suspicious code is
more difficult to accurately identify.

Sentar provides novel solutions to problems in domains which leverage
our expertise in multi-agent systems, knowledge-based integration and
goal oriented processing as well as in intrusion detection, information
fusion, secure configuration and certification and accreditation.

No Limits
Our customers for our R & D efforts have included the Air Force, the
Army, the Missle Defense Agency, and DARPA. We do not necessarily
limit the domains to which we feel our technological vision can be
applied. However, our current areas of focus include Computer
Network Operation (CNO), Computer Network Defense (CND), Command and
Control (C2), and Software Protection. |

Computer Network
Operations
 CNO refers to
defensive and offensive measures taken to
protect and defend information,
computers, and networks from
disruption, denial, degradation, or
destruction. Applications of
CNO address incident response,
disaster prevention and
recovery, intrusion prevention,
secure infrastructure, malicious
insider detection, latency reduction,
and forensics as they relate
specifically to missile defense
systems and networks.
Computer Network Defense
CND
describes the actions taken to protect,
monitor, analyze, detect, and respond to
unauthorized activity within
information systems and computer networks. CND
protection activity employs
information assurance principals and includes deliberate
actions taken to modify an assurance
configuration or condition in response to a CND
alert or threat information.
Command and Control
C2 refers to the
procedures used in effectively organizing and directing armed forces
to accomplish a mission. C2 systems
automate the consolidation and relegation of the
equipment, facilities and personnel
resources a commander requires to effectively
command and control armed forces.
Software Protection
SP is an
application-centric approach to protecting critical software. The thrust
of SP is
to slow the acquisition of
application software by adversaries, make cost-prohibitive
the exploitation of software when it
does leak, and to ensure technology/policy
protection measures are appropriately
applied. Solutions to protect software include
piracy prevention, ensuring code
integrity, and preventing unauthorized usage of
critical software applications.
