Enterprise Metadata Interoperability
Keep confidentiality and releasability metadata intact between systems and controls.
The Metadata Interoperability Gap
The metadata interoperability gap is the disconnect between how different systems label, interpret and exchange security metadata. Ensuring classification labels have the same meaning across systems and boundaries is just as important as the networks that carry the information.
Inconsistent metadata introduces three major risks:
​
-
Program risk, where interoperability failures cause delays, rework, and cost overruns;
-
Security risk, where controls act on incomplete or ambiguous classification information;
-
Operational risk, where delays in sharing information can impact mission outcomes.
Close the Gap with Janusnet Accord
Janusnet Accord is a Data-Centric Security Interoperability Service. It reads, normalizes and translates security classification metadata from different formats, keeping it intact, trustworthy and machine-readable as data moves between systems, security controls, networks and allied partners.
​
Janusnet Accord bridges the gap between target standards such as ACP 240 and NATO STANAG 4774/4778 and current operational systems, enabling an incremental approach to data-centric security whilst reducing program, security and operational risk.
Streamlining Secure Information Transfer
Preserve original classification intent as data moves between systems and coalition boundaries
Enable multi-domain operations at different classification levels
Support Federated Mission Networks and Mission Partner Environments
Improve strategic to tactical-level interoperability
A Metadata Layer for Data-Centric and Hybrid Security Architectures
Multi-policy comprehension: Understands NATO STANAG, FVEY/ACP240, national, and enterprise classification policies.
Metadata binding: Reads/writes STANAG 4778 bindings for files and email and converts between proprietary and standard formats.
Policy translation: Translates between different classification policies and supports alternative confidentiality metadata labels.
Zero Trust policy enforcement: Acts as a Policy Information Point to provide trusted metadata to Policy Enforcement Points.
