Abstract

Security weaknesses in DoD information systems remain a major challenge for system stakeholders. We have advanced technology transition for technology developed under the Helix and PEASOUP projects to protect Air Force systems of interests. The result is an asset that, if widely deployed by the DoD, would enable a high level of confidence in the security of DoD systems, in particular, confidence that certain classes of critical vulnerabilities were no longer subject to possible exploitation. Our technology, called Kevlar, includes key security technologies are protective transformations and targeted recovery. The protective transformations are applied to application binaries before they are deployed. Salient features of Kevlar include applying high-entropy randomization techniques, automated program repairs leveraging highly-optimized virtual machine technology, and developing a novel framework for program analysis, transformation and composition

Abstract

The focus of the Helix project was to dramatically improve the status quo for architecting secure and resilient information systems by developing a coherent body of scientific and engineering knowledge to design and evaluate new algorithms and concepts for self-regenerative systems. The hallmarks of such systems is that they are automated and proactive; they can adapt and reconfigure themselves to present attackers with an ever-shifting attack surface; and they can self-heal when confronted with both known and unknown attacks.
