HP NetTop delivers multiple network domains on one workstation to eliminate redundant hardware and reduce the TCO of high-assurance computing. Multiple network domains The best defense against external threats is to never let them through the door . This principle, long applied in defense and intelligence communities, has become the standard in high-assurance computing environments as well, and is typically implemented through a physical “air gap” in which separate networks are physically disconnected from one another . Thus, users needing access to multiple security domains must employ a separate CPU and monitor for each domain . Operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Windows XP, Linux, and others execute in their own isolated Virtual Machine vault on the HP NetTop system, HP NetTop is an information assurance solution architecture that transforms a single workstation, laptop, or desktop into a high-assurance platform running multiple operating systems concurrently with total domain isolation between each OS and its attached network . At the server level, HP NetTop Server enables that same transformation . Operating systems such as Microsoft ® Windows ® , Microsoft Windows ® XP, Linux ® , and others execute in their own isolated “Virtual Machine” (VM) vault on the HP NetTop system, and run the same office productivity and other software applications as standalone PCs . Users can switch between VMs with the click of a mouse . HP NetTop provides a policy-driven barrier between VMs to prevent data leakage between security domains . To system administrators and their enterprise software systems, VMs are indistinguishable from stand-alone workstations on the network . Applications like Microsoft Exchange, SMS, and HP OpenView work transparently with HP NetTop VMs . In addition, VMs can be configured as thin clients . One HP NetTop workstation replaces multiple workstations in environments where data isolation cannot be compromised . In these environments, users typically access different security domains/networks from different workstations—leaving the IT organization to deal with the cost, clutter, and complexity . The HP NetTop solution is based on NSA’s NetTop research project and is supported by a suite of HP services that can tailor HP NetTop to meet the needs of your unique enterprise, as well as pilot, rollout, and ongoing HP NetTop support at whatever level your organization requires . The HP NetTop solution complies with NSTISSP No . 11, and is certified by the NSA Information Assurance Directorate to provide domain separation . 3
