The Binary Armor engineering team has extensive experience working with partners and end-users to develop unique solutions in the areas of wireless communications, networking, cybersecurity and software development. The Binary Armor team offers engineering services and turnkey solutions that cover a wide range of customer needs, including:
Turnkey Solutions:
As a prime systems integrator, the Binary Armor team is familiar with managing all aspects of the project life-cycle from concept to system design and delivery. By employing a highly qualified, DoD cleared workforce, the Binary Armor team can provide an end-to-end solution for a broad range of projects including integrating sensors and systems in an open and secure architecture over wired or wireless networks.
Wireless Communications:
The Binary Armor team has extensive experience in radio communications systems integration including providing solutions for cellular, mesh radio, 802.11 WiFi, UHF/VHF data and voice, and other commercial and military tactical radio communications systems.
Networking and Cybersecurity:
The Binary Armor team is well-versed with information assurance based on NERC, CIP, NIST, and other industry and government security standards. Because of their extensive experience with IT and OT systems, SNC can help with designing an architecture that combines operational effectiveness with security and resiliency.
Customer Software and Solutions for Data Management and System Interoperability:
As a prime systems integrator, SNC and the Binary Armor team commonly need to develop and field solutions to enable disparate systems to interoperate. Leveraging the Binary Armor platform, the software team can rapidly develop robust software solutions for applications such as protocol conversion, data enhancement or analytics.
Site Survey:
NIST 800.52 states that developing a risk management framework is a crucial first step in securing ICS systems. The Binary Armor engineering team will work with your operations and engineering teams to characterize system risk and use industry leading tools and best practices to characterize your network.
Onsite Engineering Support for Integration and System Test:
Leverage GAI’s subject matter experts on SCADA and industrial control system (ICS) protocols for Binary Armor deployment, installation, configuration, validation and system field test of Binary Armor at your facilities.
Custom Development:
Occasionally, off-the-shelf Binary Armor is not sufficient for a specific application. In those situations, the Binary Armor team will develop and provide custom software or firmware, including support for new protocols, new rule-sets, additional interfaces or client software applications, and unique configurations. All Binary Armor Software will be developed using disciplined Agile methods validated with CMMI 3 processes and frequent partner interaction to ensure satisfaction.
System Test in the Binary Armor SCADA Lab:
Binary Armor SCADA lab provides the ability to test rule-sets and configurations in a representative environment and using a partner’s SCADA protocols. SNC’s suite of tools includes Bit Cannon, and experience with emulation enables the rapid prototyping of systems. This service is available for validation of Binary Armor configurations as well as end-to-end system test and validation.
Network Monitoring and Alerting
Binary Armor logs and reports every network anomaly, including blocked data, and can also be leveraged to log user defined events and actions. The Binary Armor team can support you by reviewing the logs, making recommendations for immediate remediation, as required, and delivering a regular summary report about your network’s security status. Partners enjoy outsourcing this time-consuming, sometimes complex task to the Binary Armor Team so they can focus on what’s important – achieving organizational objectives.
Engineering Support for Rule‐Set Refinement and System Configuration:
Leverage GAI’s subject matter experts on SCADA and industrial control system protocols to update Binary Armor rule-sets and configurations in fielded Binary Armor systems, ensuring the most effective solution is deployed across your enterprise.
Configuration Management and Logistics
Integration of Binary Armor configuration management into a customer’s existing system to simplify system management. GAI can also provide a variety of sparing and logistics solutions for Binary Armor to fit customer needs.
