Ampex SmartDock
The Ampex SmartDock is an intelligent download station designed to create a seamless and secure bridge between your mission-critical Rugged Memory Modules (RMMs), and your network infrastructure. The SmartDock was designed to support Data-at-Rest (DAR) encryption and key management to secure your data. Encryption and key management, including AES 256, FIPS, and CSfC standards, are handled through an intuitive GUI interface to simplify deployment. In today’s evolving technological landscape, interfacing with specialized RMMs can present significant challenges, from dealing with legacy physical interfaces becoming scarce on new computing hardware to navigating strict security protocols that often prohibit direct peripheral connections. The SmartDock directly addresses these hurdles, providing a reliable, efficient, and secure pathway for your essential data. It streamlines the critical post-mission data retrieval process, allowing crews to simply remove the RMMs for debriefing and download, rather than requiring complex procedures or removal of the entire recording system from platforms like aircraft.
