IP-KRYPTO cipher machine for military use

Polish military IP networks can be effectively and cheaply secured by IP-KRYPTO cipher machines which are developed in the Military Communication Institute. The cooperation with Polish manufacturers - Optimus and ABA Kraków and the usage of COTS elements and ideas speed up the research and development works. The IP-KRYPTO cipher machine will be used for securing the "SECRET" data so it must be certified to fulfill E3 ITSEC evaluation criteria. This requirement generates additional challenges in the development process when the COTS elements are to be implemented.
