Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) Programs

What is CSfC?

 

The National Security Agency (NSA) Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) program protects classified data by leveraging a two-layered approach using commercial security components. This provides a solution that when compared to a traditional government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) Type 1 implementation, can be fielded in months instead of years.

CHALLENGE

Minimize cost and development time while deploying advanced, military-grade security at the tactical edge

SOLUTION

A new approach to securing data-at-rest: layer two or more independent commercial security components with CSfC security solutions that leverage modular design and technology reuse to reduce program cost and expedite development of mission-critical capabilities to the field.

Leverage Capability Packages

CSfC implementation requirements are defined by Capability Packages (CP) published by the NSA. CP deliver data security solutions using approved components from participating technology leaders. In the Data at Rest (DAR) CP, data protection can be accomplished by integrating an inner and outer layer of hardware and software encryption.
