What happens when you Zeroize a Taclane?

In the event of loss of unkeyed Taclane equipment, any associated CIKs should be erased where possible. If absence of the equipment prevents erasure of the CIK, the CIK should be protected at the classification level of the key last known to be in the equipment until: (a) The equipment is found and zeroized.

What function or functions does a kg 175d Taclane perform?

TACLANE®-Nano (KG-175N) BRINGS SECURE MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS TO THE TACTICAL EDGE. The smallest, lightest, certified HAIPE® for secure tactical communications.

What is a kg in networking?

KG-175 (Taclane) The TACLANE (KG-175) is short for Tactical FASTLANE ® and was developed by the National Security Agency (NSA) to provide network communications security on Internet Protocol (IP) and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks for the individual user or for enclaves of users at the same security level.

How does a Taclane work?

TACLANE serves multi security-level enclaves. TACLANE can tunnel data from higher-security, cryptographically isolated enclave, across enclaves of a lower security level – or vice versa. This means you can piggyback onto an existing network, creating a secure virtual network (SVN), thereby reducing your network costs.

How does HAIPE work?

A HAIPE is an IP encryption device, looking up the destination IP address of a packet in its internal Security Association Database (SAD) and picking the encrypted tunnel based on the appropriate entry.
