COLUMBIA, Md., April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Tresys Technology,
an industry leader in Cross Domain Solutions, today announced the
release of XD Air version 5.0, a portable media inspection and file
transfer appliance. XD Air™ is a standalone kiosk that provides the
strongest portable media threat protection commercially available
today. Originally developed in conjunction with the National
Security Agency, XD Air is the only U.S. Cyber Command-approved
tool for the transfer of classified documents via portable
media.
A hardened and tightly-integrated hardware and software
solution, XD Air:
- Performs Content Disarm & Reconstruction (CDR) on common
document and image file types, separating them into discrete
components, inspecting and sanitizing those components, and then
reassembles the file into its original format.
- Performs a second CDR inspection using a separate,
independently-developed CDR filter to verify the sanitization
results.
- Utilizes multiple antivirus scanners to detect known
malware.
- Transfers files that pass sanitization to securely erased
destination media.
- Detects and warns the user of unusual behavior by portable
device firmware.
XD Air version 5 includes a new Deep Content Inspection (DCI)
engine designed to comply with "Raise the Bar" (RTB)
guidelines for Cross Domain Solutions established by the National
Cross Domain Strategy and Management Office (NCDSMO). The new DCI
engine provides highly secure, assured orchestration of CDR
processes, ensuring that sanitization policies are strictly
enforced and cannot be bypassed.
"Both government and commercial entities with highly sensitive
data and networks demand the absolute highest security standards to
safeguard the information within their networks," said Ken Walker, CTO, Tresys Technology. "We have
worked very closely with NCDSMO and NSA to ensure we design the
most comprehensive and secure filtering capabilities in our Cross
Domain Solutions so that our customers' networks and sensitive data
are protected from both known and unknown threats."
Tresys' Deep Content Inspection (DCI) engine is now available in
XD Air version 5 and is being incorporated into the next generation
XD Bridge cross domain solution. XD Bridge is SABI and TSABI
certified and listed on the NCDSMO Baseline. XD Guardian is
functionally equivalent and is the only exportable SABI-certified
CDS. Both adhere to the NCDSMO RTB Guidelines and are
currently deployed in the DoD, including the Joint Strike Fighter
program, the Intelligence Community, and with foreign partners.
What's New in XD Air version 5?
- New Deep Content Inspection (DCI) engine.
- Introduction of a rugged laptop form factor, enabling forward
deployed troops to safely ingest data from unknown and hostile
sources.
- Support for additional Content Disarm & Reconstruction file
types, including Microsoft Office 2013-2016 and Office 365.
- Support for very large files (>2GB).
- Support for full-speed USB 3.1 media
