Visionary Software Beyond the Technology Limitations...

TSB FACT: Professional Development TSCM Group Inc., is the industry leader in bringing together professional level Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) services, standards development, advanced training and certification, the management of longest running, technical security conference event in Canada, and the most respected leading industry Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software, all under one operational umbrella; enhancing national security worldwide. We back up everything we say that Kestrel ^® can do - one customer at a time.

"Innovation is simply the Beginning..."

We are pleased to announce the implementation and pending release of a new and powerful third-party encryption package (Helix SDK) which is currently under development as OPT HELIX SDK and is supported by the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software.

Watch for further announcements on the official release date of OPT HELIX SDK expected to be launched by the end of July 2020.



Helix SDK is the first end-to-end encryption solution that protects your data at rest, in transit and during use with five (5) layers of encryption, and two (2) layers of key exchange, providing dual Perfect / Future Forward Secrecy as well as dual Post-Quantum computing attacks resilience.


Helix SDK Key Features:

DNA Binding™ customizes the encryption based on the recipient and their device’s hardware to ensure that only the intended recipient can decrypt and see the content even if it is intercepted – you cannot steal what you cannot see. It provides “Kevlar” for your data.

Five (5) layers of Encryption (AES1, TwoFish, AES2, ThreeFish, Snow3G) providing true end-to-end encryption – encrypting at a rate that’s 1000x faster than SSL/TLS, optimizes security while actually improving performance.

Quantum Resistant – Encryption ensures post quantum attack resilience for your data & communications as well as for the key exchange mechanism.

Global Key Exchange Service with two (2) layers of protection for encryption keys that are integrated to seamlessly and automatically establish a shared secret & encrypt the five (5) symmetric keys used to encrypt the data, in order to be sent securely to the recipient. It prevents / avoids compromise and impersonation. The Global Key Exchange could be on cloud (yours or ours) or on premises.

Dual P / FFS (perfect / future forward secrecy) means keys used for encryption and key exchange are randomly generated, used only once, discarded, and never used again. Changing keys makes it exponentially harder (if not impossible with the current technology) to gain unauthorized access to the data.


How it Works!

Helix SDK will work for existing Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software users running the latest software release as well as for new licenses with OPTION HELIX SDK enabled for the target host computer system platform.

The cost of OPT HELIX SDK is $495.00 CAD is to enable the feature. Third-party fees and monthly Helix SDK service costs are the responsibility of the end-user. Enabling OPT HELIX SDK does not provide any level of encryption.

Please contact Mark Hrabowsky at mark@blakfx.com for detailed product information and technical specifications, including procurement options.

On the Kestrel ^® side, OPT HELIX SDK simply enables the system to communicate with the third-party encryption technology and service and does not provide a security environment when enabled.

With OPT HELIX SDK enabled, on startup Kestrel ^® will present a login dialog. A checkbox will allow a user to specify an encrypted session and a passphrase. If this session is encrypted, the passphrase will be hashed with machine-specific information to produce a hard encryption key.

All file transactions except for installation files will use this encryption. File names will remain in familiar formats, however the file contents will be unreadable except through Kestrel ^® with the correct passphrase on this specific machine.

If a user wishes to move files from one machine to another, then external Helix tools may be used to manage the transfer to the new user so they are usable in the target location. An external key management system would be used, but could be internal to the client to manage this process.

Professional Development TSCM Group Inc., simply provides the means and support within the Kestrel environment to enable the end-user to implement the Helix SDK technology as a third-party technology.

This latest option provides an entirely new level of sophistication for our government, military and national security apparatus to strengthen the ability to securely share, transfer and stream mission critical reference data across a network with confidence.

"Innovation is simply the Beginning..."

We are pleased to announce that we have now embarked on the journey into the world of Digital Demodulation with the first new CW hybrid demodulation mode added to the might Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software this past week.

The underlying code base structure has been undergoing significant new development to overcome the challenges of implementing the first ever operator centric and TSCM specific digital demodulation analytical sub-set deep within the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software, involving significant research and development during this past year to overcome a number of significant technical challenges to bring this new technology to the front-line technical operator for the first time specific to the Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) role.



Kestrel ^® continues to evolve based on significant on-going technical research, scientific experimentation and methodology development that is designed to strengthen national security initiatives across the technical security spectrum in Canada and beyond.

Our experience with many third-party demodulation packages find most to be seriously over-priced and do not focus on TSCM specific requirements.

The following video clip demonstrates several essential technology elements in the implementation of a powerful CW mode with a unique operator defined parameter sub-set used to decode and bring real-time signal intelligence based visualization to life.

From a TSCM prospective visualization is an essential standards based practice as defined within the TSB2000 (Technical) Standard ^TM. Our highly anticipated Kestrel Digital Visualizer (KDV) technology release is now the focus of the Kestrel ^® development cycle.

Morse Code Demodulation and Visualization Demo | CW Video Clip | 14.8 MB

The new CW mode and our operator exposed advanced configuration settings is the first of a comprehensive Kestrel ^® Digital Visualization (KDV) ^TM package that bridges the gap between analog and more comprehensive digital signal analytics and clears the path to the implementation of even more powerful TSCM specific digital modes that bring focus and clarity to the TSCM and SIGINT role at the technical operator level.

Test and Measurement oriented resources cannot provide the focus and clarity that is required for the TSCM environment and many less capable resources simply lack the ability to meet the present day challenges of evolving threat technology.

The technical operator is not concerned with the inner workings of any signal and simply needs certain extracted signal elements to identify or separate one signal from another. As we move into an IOT and 5G connected world, the TSCM role requires this level detection, identification and characterization of common, but highly complex signals present within the ambient spectrum environment.

We talk to technical operators nearly every day and there is a common theme as to why government, military and national security entities are moving away from over-priced, limited capability resources and moving to our modern dynamic threat mitigation methodology, where day to day new Kestrel ^® software features and capability that are firmly based on a modern moving target threat model are introduced, evaluated, and redesigned to remain relevant.

The Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software methodology evolves to meet and exceed developing hostile threat technology in near real-time. The Mighty Kestrel ^® Never Sleeps!

Further to our recent announcement relating to the availability of a powerful new Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software full installer at v1.41-1 and a companion drop file release at v1.41-10DEV.
 
The long awaited Kestrel ^® Support Profile (KSP) ^TM now fully supports the new Signal Hound photonic SM200C hardware across a 10GbE SFP+ network and Thunderbolt 3 technology.

This marks the first official release of the SM00C compatibility standard under the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software umbrella.

The inclusion of the SM200C brings not only TSCM to a new standard of deployment, but opens the door into SIGINT, COMINT, ELINT and EW requirements.

The ability to use a single source software across multiple deployment sectors of the intelligence and counter-intelligence community, brings focus and clarity across the the national security infrastructure on a global basis.

We have also added a powerful CW demodulation mode and a powerful configuration resource for versatility in deployment within a TSCM role, as we dive into adding additional digital demodulation modes during pending software releases.

This is profoundly significant, given the vast use of long-distance communication platforms utilized by hostile espionage entities around the world. Adding CW on its own, provides only limited advantage, but with our included powerful CW configuration tool, the versatility and potential to detect and identify hostile emitters is enhanced.

Significant new feature have been added to the  Audio Spectral Density (ASD) ^TM display, including the ability to select display persistence and saturation levels, ability to change the background colour and have included the ability to maximize the width of the display groups.

We have also optimized the spectrum display rendering to handle the new industry standard Signal Hound SM200XX series hardware and have further optimized interoperability across all signal hound radios.

"Innovation is simply the Beginning..."

The deployment of the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software's advanced Tap Capture Plot (TCP) ^TM geo-location heat mapping is utilized for many unique applications across a wide range of sectors in law-enforcement, government and military applications worldwide.

The use of our TCP ^TM application can quickly locate troublesome RF emitters that can threaten the safety of air operations for commercial, charter, private executive jets and government aircraft.

The following image identified an unauthorized emitter at the rear of the aircraft as identified by location 0003 with the aircraft structure clearly indicating signal fade forward of the wings.

The device was determined to be an unauthorized active LTE modem located on a maintenance cart at location 0003 outside and below the fuselage of the aircraft in a designated RF security zone.



The ability of the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software to utilize our proprietary Reference Level Off-Set technology to bring clarity and focus to the Signal of Interest (SOI), better resolved the emitter location as observed below.



The technical operator then selected an alternate random reference frequency (in the FM Broadcast band) that clearly indicates an external signal event with relatively uniform RSSI all around the aircraft as observed below.



The use of our proprietary Reference Level Off-Set technology provides a very accurate visualization of the same (FM Broadcast) reference signal, to clarify the effect of aircraft structural attenuation characteristics.



In another example, the technical operator placed a DECT 6.0 test transmitter toward the rear section on-board the aircraft during the inspection.

The Kestrel TSCM Professional Software can capture and provide unrestricted geo-location across the entire search range of the hardware during runtime collection and post analytical review.



The Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional software has even more advanced features that are simply not found on less capable competitive systems.

The modern spectrum warrior must deploy modern resources against modern threat technology within a modern moving target threat model.

It is time to re-evaluate your TSCM equipment resources and move to the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software and Signal Hound Software Defined Radio (SDR) hardware for the best value and most advanced options available.
