Research abstract
During Phase I, Western DataCom proposes to develop a secure multicast implementation including an algorithm/key distribution design directed at secure distribution of broadcast and multicast information over a variety of infrastructures. Of particular interest are satellite and wireless networks and the ability to securely operate over shared infrastructure (domains that are owned by uncontrolled entities). Hardware and firmware modifications of existing Western DataCom encryption units that enable deployment of the secure key distribution will be accomplished during phase II and a the resulting secure algorithm/key distribution will be demonstrated over a prototypical network that includes SATCOM and wireless domains.
