What is a Taclane SA?

What is a Taclane SA?

The Taclane family of equipment is a group of high-speed encryption devices which provide confidentiality, data integrity, and authentication security services for Internet Protocol (IP) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks.

What is a Taclane kg 175?

TACLANE®-FLEX (KG-175F) IS THE NEXT-GEN CRYPTO MODERNIZATION SOLUTION. The smallest, lightest, most efficient 2 Gb/s aggregate HAIPE encryptor, the TACLANE-FLEX is ideal for users that need advanced features and bandwidth scalability in the form factor of a KG-175D.

What is HAIPE encryption?

A High Assurance Internet Protocol Encryptor (HAIPE) is a Type 1 encryption device that complies with the National Security Agency’s HAIPE IS (formerly the HAIPIS, the High Assurance Internet Protocol Interoperability Specification). HAIPE IS is based on IPsec with additional restrictions and enhancements.

What is a kg in networking?

The TACLANE (KG-175) is short for Tactical FASTLANE ® and was developed by the National Security Agency (NSA) to provide network communications security on Internet Protocol (IP) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks for the individual user or for enclaves of users at the same security level.

What is an inline network encryptor?

– [Instructor] An Inline Network Encryptor or INE is a Type I encryption device that serves as a bulk encryptor for data entering or leaving the network. INE and HAIPE devices are used heavily in government and military systems to protect data as it transmits over Wide Area Networks such as the internet.

How does IP encryption work?

IPsec is a group of protocols that are used together to set up encrypted connections between devices. It helps keep data sent over public networks secure. IPsec is often used to set up VPNs, and it works by encrypting IP packets, along with authenticating the source where the packets come from.

What is type1 encryption?

A Type 1 encryption product is a device or system certified by the NSA for use in cryptographically securing classified United States government (USG) information, when appropriately keyed. The USG classified data may range from Confidential to Secret to Top Secret.

What is a kg 250X?

The KG-250X/KG-250X-FC combines Type 1 high-speed network encryption that goes beyond HAIPE requirements, with cyber defense technologies and visualization software including Trusted Cyber Sensor (TCS) so you can more securely communicate over Internet Protocol (IP) and gain actionable intelligence on your security …

Are IP packets encrypted?

In tunnel mode, the entire IP packet is encrypted and authenticated. Tunnel mode is used to create virtual private networks for network-to-network communications (e.g. between routers to link sites), host-to-network communications (e.g. remote user access) and host-to-host communications (e.g. private chat).

What kind of data encryptor does TACLANE use?

The TACLANE Portfolio is now expanding to include the new E-Series family of Layer 2 Ethernet Data Encryptors. The E-Series is designed to support the low latency, security and performance requirements of high speed layer 2 network backbones of 2/20/80/200/400 Gb/s and higher.

Where can I register for TACLANE encryptor training?

You should allow at least 15 minutes before class for registration at the front desk. Bring a photo I.D. for security verification. Training at the customer’s site is also available on a case-by-case basis. Contact the Training Coordinator or by telephone (877) 230-0236 for additional information.

Is there an exact form / fit replacement for The TACLANE-Micro?

Enabling an exact form/fit replacement for the KG-175D. TACLANE-Nano (KG-175N) required. TACLANE-Nano (KG-175N) Adapter Module (for KG-175D) is a ruggedized enclosure that can be used with the TACLANE-Nano (KG-175N) encryptor to provide an exact form/fit replacement for the TACLANE-Micro (KG-175D).

What kind of cable does TACLANE kg-175a use?

The KG-175A provides this connection over its RS-232 console management port and the KG-175D over the “console” Ethernet port via a standard Cat-5 cable. This is available from the factory configuration of the encryptors as well as those configured for operation.
