Abstract :
Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) Mobility, as architected and described by the National Security Agency (NSA) in the Mobility Capability Package, provides military and other government agencies with new alternatives for implementing classified communications systems using modern commercial mobile devices and a layered security model to achieve end-to-end assurance of an uncompromised voice and/or data path. As circuit switched data support by mobile carriers wanes, new methods of providing assured communications paths are needed to replace the legacy devices currently in use. The Mobility Capability Package architecture based on CSfC principles provides warfighters and senior leaders with a secure communications architecture that can evolve as industry evolves, providing for the more rapid introduction and adoption of emerging technologies in support of critical missions.
