In search of a small form factor network attached storage (NAS) solution for a new UUV, an engineer at a defense contractor reached out to Curtiss-Wright. The UUV required a high storage capacity solution to store critical mission data on long-range missions.
The NAS needed to be SWaP-optimized to enable longer missions. The UUV would be collecting Top Secret data, and the manufacturer required that the data-at-rest (DAR) be protected by agency-approved encryption techniques.

The UUV manufacturer asked Curtiss-Wright to propose a SWaP-optimized data storage solution that provided certified encryption and transportable high capacity storage to protect the platform’s valuable mission data.
