Vulnerability Assessment of the InterNetwork Controller (INC)

Abstract : The Tactical Internet (TI) provides a reliable digital communications infrastructure for Task Force XXI at brigade level and below. The InterNetwork controller (INC) performs routing and protocol conversion of data traffic within the TI, so its vulnerabilities could have significant adverse effects on the flow and content of data communications within the TI. This report summarizes the results of a study of potential "information warfare" vulnerabilities of the INC's interfaces, configuration, protocols, procedures, and policies.
