This document discusses WORMdisk and CYBERdisk technologies for securing data and systems against cyber attacks. It summarizes the key features of WORMdisk, including protecting data from manipulation, modification or deletion. CYBERdisk protects sensitive parts of system boot disks. The technologies provide data integrity and system integrity through standalone disk-level protection that cannot be bypassed.
GreenTec provides two products, CYBERdisks and WORMdisks, that provide hardware-level cyber protection for systems and data. CYBERdisks protect the master boot record and partition tables from attacks, while WORMdisks prevent data sabotage, manipulation, and deletion. These disks use standard interfaces and are plug-and-play, protecting sensitive information through security embedded in the disk itself that cannot be bypassed by operating systems or access controls. GreenTec works with government agencies and commercial clients to deploy its products.
An attacker with physical access to a computer or network device can easily compromise security by booting from unauthorized media like LiveCDs, USB drives, or DVDs containing hacking tools. These bootable devices allow bypassing of firewalls and access to the hard drive contents. Drive imaging software on such media poses a big risk as it can copy the entire hard drive contents without leaving a trace. Disabling auto-run features and removable media like USB drives can help reduce these risks from physical access. Encryption and centralized file storage also make drives less valuable if imaged.
The document discusses the Unisys STEALTH solution, which uses data splitting and encryption techniques to allow multiple networks with different classification levels to securely share the same infrastructure. It describes how the solution works, including using appliances and software to split data into slices and control access. It also provides examples of how the solution has been implemented for the US Special Operations Command and other agencies to consolidate networks and improve security.

XPDS16: Hypervisor Enforced Data Loss Prevention - Neil Sikka, A1LOGICThe Linux Foundation
Data Breaches are all over the news these days, and no organization is safe. Nobody, from the largest governments to the biggest banks to the most advanced security companies is able to adequately protect themselves. The difficulty is that there are infinite number of ways to exfiltrate data from an organization ranging from stolen/lost hardware to steganography to malicious insiders to 0Day exploits installing malware to side channels. The industry is trying to solve this problem using detection, heuristics, pattern matching and behavioral analysis. A new approach is clearly needed to fight the Data Breach problem and keep data inside an organization.
Come find out how to use Hypervisors to repurpose hardware to protect sensitive data under the assumption of compromised networks, devices and users (Malicious Insiders). In addition, find out how to do so without using any type of detection, heuristics, pattern matching or behavioral analysis, but rather a strictly algorithmic approach rooted in hardware. Finally, learn about how this technology can be used in a generic manner to protect data of DataBases, Server Software, unmodified legacy applications, and unmodified consumer applications such as word processing and spreadsheet software.

3. WHAT is a WORMdisk™?WHAT is a WORMdisk™?
• Why do I need a WORMdisk™? To protect your static data from manipulation, modification, alteration, deletion or re-
formatting. Typical uses include data that must be retained for financial, medical, legal, PII data, contracts, corporate, documents,
surveillance, law enforcement, reference material, content libraries, archives and data backups.
• Why do I need a CYBERdisk™? To protect sensitive parts of boot disks from cyber-attacks such as the SONY and Aramco attacks
& firmware attacks. Windows, MAC OS X, Linux and VMware may be installed and protected on CYBERdisks™.
• What type of Cyber-Attacks are prevented? Data manipulation, deletion, alteration, modification, re-formatting, unauthorized
DNI Gen James Clapper testified at the U.S. Cybersecurity Policy for the Senate Armed Services
Committee on September 29, 2015 that one of his biggest concerns is Data Manipulation &
Integrity of the Data.
WORMdisks™ prevent Data Manipulation to provide Data Confidence and Data Integrity.
• What type of Cyber-Attacks are prevented? Data manipulation, deletion, alteration, modification, re-formatting, unauthorized
encryption, Ransomware, MBR attacks and undetectable firmware viruses are prevented.
• What happens if a hacker tries to attack my data? If a hacker gets into your system, WORMdisks™ will give them I/O errors when they
try to change or delete your data. Ransomware will fail, firmware viruses will abort and “delete” and “format” commands will fail.
• How does WORMdisk™ secure data? WORMdisks™ are much more secure than conventional host-based security since the protection
is inside the disk itself. Data protection is standalone in the disk and travels with the disk. It cannot be bypassed regardless of user
permissions or the operating system being used.
• Will WORMdisks™ support my applications? WORMdisks™ work with existing applications the same way other disks do.
• How do I use WORMdisks™? They are used like other disks and may be local SATA, eSATA, USB, NAS/SAN network attached, or used as
Cloud WORMdisk™ storage. WORMdisks™ easily integrate into existing systems and operate like existing disks.
• Do WORMdisks™ support encryption? WORMdisks™ support FIPS 140-2 encryption technology, so in addition to protection from data
manipulation , modification or deletion, data is also protected from disclosure.

9. Today’s ChallengesToday’s Challenges
Challenges we face today that can be mitigated with WORMdisks™
Cyber-Attacks
• Cyber threats, malware and viruses are damaging, manipulating and disclose important data.
• Ransomware encrypts user data files and holds you hostage, forcing you to pay a ransom to get data back.
• Data damage and disclosure from the Equation Group Virus and other cyber-attacks.
• Data is not fully protectable with current technology, and data can still be erased even when encrypted.
Data Loss & Manipulation
• Insider tampering, disgruntled employees, cyber-espionage.
• Accidental Overwrites and deletions.
• Data Loss and data compromise prevention (Onsite, Mobile and Cloud).
• Assure system integrity and reliability.• Assure system integrity and reliability.
Digital Records Management
• Electronic data compliance and regulatory requirements (DoD 5015.2, NARA, Capstone, HIPAA, NRC, SOX)
• Current expensive and complex compliance solutions do not support native file formats and are difficult to
administer, requiring software and appliances. Data is not protected when it is removed from the appliance.
• Records and original digital evidence require protection and permanence beyond policy based approaches.
• The costly demands of secure electronic records sharing and transportation.
Processes and Procedures are Complex, Costly and Error-prone
• Costly preparation of digital electronic records for compliance, governance and legal action.
• Chain-of-custody requires complex handling, storage and transportation for digital evidence.
• Improper handling of sensitive data not stored in secure locations may be manipulated by outsiders.
• Maintain long-term protection and accessibility for archives.
