Currently, there is a security risk involved with the transference of data through the CST software. While the SECRET Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) provides a circuit encryption to all data traveling along its path, there is no encryption applied directly through CST. If the data leaving CST were to be intercepted by unauthorized personnel on the local network, this would expose the confidentiality of the data and could potentially destroy its integrity. This paper will provide the reader with a low-level understanding of the Global Command and Control System-Maritime (GCCS-M), CST, Track Database Manager (Tdbm) and SIPRNet. It will detail how data transmission is accomplished from server to server via CST highlighting the need for additional encryption of the CST data stream.
