XD Guardian Enables Secure Data Transfer for Coalition Aircraft

Allied forces utilizing U.S.-manufactured aircraft required secure data transfers for mission and maintenance data to and from the aircraft. The information exchange requirements for content inspection and filtering needed to meet the same standards as the U.S. configuration, necessitating the use of an accredited cross domain solution (CDS). However, export restrictions on accredited CDSs meant that no solution to meet these requirements was available for coalition partners outside of the Five Eyes (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, U.K., U.S.). In addition, because the aircraft utilized proprietary software, any new solution would also have to be configured and integrated with the software.
