General Dynamics Introduces NSA-Certified COTS Computer

TACLANE-MultiBook protects information stored in the computer’s solid-state drive

October 10, 2012

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – General Dynamics C4 Systems today introduced the new TACLANE�-MultiBook laptop, now certified by the National Security Agency (NSA) to secure network communications to the Secret level and below. Government, agency and state and local law enforcement and related organizations may now use the TACLANE-MultiBook. The MultiBook can operate simultaneously on unclassified and classified networks and securely on the public Internet. It also protects information stored in the computer's solid-state drive using the proven ProtecD@R� technology.

Before the TACLANE-MultiBook, multiple computers were needed to provide full separation of classified and unclassified information or connect to the commercial Internet and secure military and government networks.

"For the first time, these specialized workers can merge real life with work life using the TACLANE-MultiBook," said Chris Marzilli, president of General Dynamics C4 Systems. "To get the same level of information security that the new computer provides, users would need three or more information security devices, at twice the cost of the TACLANE-Multibook, and still not have the MultiBook's mobility."

The TACLANE-MultiBook helps to ensure that sensitive information is not compromised if the computer is lost or stolen. Considered a Cryptographic High Valued Product (CHVP), the MultiBook has less stringent handling requirements than a controlled cryptographic item (CCI) and enables secure interoperability with U.S. government and military networks.

Available with a number of options, the TACLANE-MultiBook can be ordered today. The list price starts at $5,790. The MultiBook is also available on the GSA schedule.

For additional information or to order the MultiBook call INFOSEC sales & support at 1-888-897-3148 or email Infosec@gdc4s.com.

That's changing as attackers' target base widens, their knowledge grows and their cyber weapons trickle down to the hacker masses. In this Dark Reading report, we examine the current APT landscape and provide recommendations for protecting your organization against this growing concern.
Trends In Mobile Device Threats

While there's some debate about the level of threat mobile devices pose, there's no question that the threat is growing. With readily available information about the devices in use, and often few corporate safeguards in place, mobile devices are turning out to be a lucrative vector for attackers looking for an in to enterprise networks. In this Dark Reading report, we explain how the threat is growing, what attackers are targeting and why you need to be concerned.

The Rising Threat of Corporate Cybercrime: Cybercriminal Motives and Methods

Cybercriminals are leveraging vulnerabilities of the Internet, browsers, operating systems, and applications to secretly and proficiently gain access to corporate information assets. Compromising employee endpoints with malware has become the preferred method; a far simpler path into the corporate network than a direct network attack. Our latest white paper discusses the cybercriminal motives and methods, and presents the need for Enterprises to recognize this growing danger and implement technologies that effectively prevent malware, the root cause of cybercrime.
Evolving Endpoint Malware Detection, Dealing with Advanced and Targeted Attacks

Advanced malware targeting employee endpoints is a major threat to corporate intellectual property, regulated data and financial assets. Perimeter and traditional endpoint defenses are struggling to meet this emerging threat in the face of a changing IT landscape: desktop virtualization, remote access, BYOD and Cloud migration. This whitepaper explains how advanced malware challenges traditional defenses to take advantage of the increased exposure of employee endpoints. It review's the evolution of advanced targeted attacks, the various approaches used to address them and how organizations should think about their current and future malware defense strategy.
Zero-Day Exploits and APTs: Security Requirements vs. Operational Challenges

Enterprises are losing the battle against advanced, information-stealing malware attacks. We continuously discover new application vulnerabilities which are quickly exploited by cybercriminals. Traditional blacklisting solutions don't work, and more advanced whitelisting-solutions are unmanageable. How do you overcome the manageability and operational challenges of advanced malware protection?

In this webinar, guest speaker Rick Holland, senior analyst serving Security & Risk Professionals at Forrester Research, Inc., will discuss the security and operational challenges associated with advanced malware protection. Rick will review the technical and operational requirements organizations should consider when looking to prevent and mitigate advanced malware. Dana Tamir, Director of Product Management at Trusteer, will then introduce Trusteer Apex which applies a new groundbreaking approach for stopping zero-day exploits and data exfiltration.
