April 12, 2010 – ObjectSecurity and Promia, Inc. completed a key project milestone for the US Navy under the Promia Raven™ engineering and support contract. This milestone is part of a planned development project to deliver an Information Assurance (IA) platform that supports secure, reliable operations for government, commercial, and military systems, particularly enhancing Navy SOA and Cloud application defense and situational awareness. The project focuses on establishing a high-performance trust architecture, combining lifecycle training and proactive IA to handle the agile changes, rapid certification, and policy flexibility needed for interconnected SOA & Cloud applications. The recently completed milestone involved designing a next-generation full-stack security architecture with XML information assurance and advanced policy management for real-time monitoring, reporting, configuration, and automated accreditation. Dr. Ulrich Lang, CEO of ObjectSecurity, emphasized the innovative approach used to achieve high assurance through automated policy management and hardened hardware, while Promia’s CEO John Mullen highlighted the collaborative expertise from ObjectSecurity, NuParadigm, and HP Labs in advancing Navy security objectives. Future phases will further develop this technology, leveraging existing tools like Promia Raven, ObjectSecurity OpenPMF, and ZBAC for extended security at minimal impact.
