12th Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC '96) Starlight: Interactive Link San Diego California December 09-December 13 ISBN: 0-8186-7606-X
The Interactive Link forms part of a suite of products being developed as part of the Starlight research program. This research program is investigating methods for achieving military-relevant information security capabilities which are genuinely cost-effective. The Interactive Link is a retrofittable device which fits to commercial off-the-shelf workstations and PCs which are connected to classified networks. The Link allows interactive access to low or unclassified networks, such as the Internet, in a manner which is accreditable via the authorising government agencies. The advantage of the Interactive Link over other methods is that it allows untrusted graphical windowing applications, such as X Windows applications or Microsoft Windows applications, to run in a manner permitting users to have windows at differing security levels.
