Abstract

Discusses the application of the trusted computer system evaluation criteria (TCSEC) and the trusted network interpretation (TNI) to closed network systems (systems which are entirely contained within a single secure enclosure such as a tank, ship, or aircraft). The authors discuss various COMPUSEC (computer security) principles (focused in the B division, but not specific to a class) and their applicability to closed systems. They also make suggestions on how to use unique properties of the closed systems to reduce the impact of incorporating COMPUSEC principles into these systems
