Signed by CASNAV, contract complies with Brazilian legislation, which requires the use of national encryption technology to protect sensitive State information
The Center for Analysis of Naval Systems (CASNAV), Science, Technology and Innovation Institution subordinated to the Technological Center of the Navy in Rio de Janeiro (CTMRJ), has just signed a service contract in hardware solutions between the Institution of Science, Technology and Innovation (ICT) and Kryptus Segurança da Informação SA, considered a Strategic Defense Company (EED).
The contract was signed at a ceremony chaired by the Director of the Navy Technological Center in Rio de Janeiro (CTMRJ), Rear Admiral Marcelo Gurgel de Souza, with the presence of CASNAV Director, Captain of the Sea and War Carlos Rodrigo Cerveira and the general director of EED hired, Roberto Gallo.
The execution of the contract will provide the Navy with the operation of cryptographic resources with a State algorithm developed by CASNAV, to be employed in tasks or missions that require cryptographic protection of sensitive data or information. In addition, another advantage in the use of cryptographic tokens of the KeyGuardian model - the solution employed by Kryptus in the project - is their mobility.
As determined by the National Defense Council, the encryption of classified information in any degree of confidentiality must use national technology, provided by a Strategic Defense Company or by the State itself.
Developed over the past 15 years by Kryptus, KeyGuardian is the only solution in the country capable of protecting data and IP communications in all degrees of confidentiality provided for in legislation, down to the top secret level.
“KeyGuardian is much more than a token. It is a multi-mission cryptographic platform that, together with the other elements of the 'BruitBlanc' suite, is capable of delivering data and secure communications in multiple scenarios, for all degrees of confidentiality ”, comments Gallo.
In Brazil, Kryptus is a supplier of cryptographic solutions to the three Forces and Ministry of Defense, in addition to other critical entities and bodies, such as Abin, MRE, ITI and TSE. In addition, it operates in several strategic programs, such as SISFRON, AC-Defense, LinkBR2, RDS-Defense, Rondon, IFF Nacional and Nova ROD. The company is also responsible for government-level solutions for the Peruvian Navy and the Colombian Army, among others.
