Intelligence and law enforcement programs require custom systems that are reliable, robust, economical, enhance mission support, and offer critical subject matter expertise. Harris Corporations’ Crucial Security Programs Research and Development Department provides these offensive computer and network services, creating unique solutions to complex problems. Our support ranges from ethical hacking and secure code review to local and on-site tool development and global field operations.

Computer Network Exploitation (CNE)

Crucial Security Programs engineers have been entrusted to support the capture of criminals, terrorists and attacking adversaries.  We can identify, integrate, and engineer systems to enhance and enable our client's ability to determine vulnerabilities in their own networks or those of an adversary. Our engineers and scientists have the capability to infiltrate remote data systems for investigation, counter-terrorism, and counter-intelligence activity. We employ experts who have significant past performance within NSA, FBI, CIA, NGA, NRO, DEA, Army (IDC), Air Force, and Navy; helping our customers engineer solutions to exceedingly difficult IT security problems. Our engineers are our greatest asset.

Vulnerability Research

Engineering the science of intelligence, Crucial Security Programs is on the cutting edge of network, hardware and software vulnerability research, development, and deployment. Crucial Security Programs’ engineers have proven experience in the custom development of Intelligence Community data ingress and egress software and hardware tools and platforms for field operations. Our expert engineered systems provide close access wired and wireless operational utility while maintaining remote control for operational security.

Software Engineering

Rapid prototyping and development of conceptual software models allows Crucial Security Programs to support the ever-changing operational landscape required by the Federal Intelligence Community. Our thought leaders have been highly successful creating successful projects in support of operational missions across multiple clients. Software conceived, developed and supported by Harris engineers has been responsible for starting thousands of criminal cases across each of the fifty United States. Our projects simplify offensive operations and act as a force multiplier for capable Government law enforcement and engineering personnel.

Reverse Encryption

Crucial Security Programs’ engineers have developed projects in conjunction with open source projects to provide rapid decryption of common encryption protocols such as RAR, LANMAN, WEP and WPA, with up to one hundred fold speed increases over a single PC. This hardware is valuable for both speeding up forensic decryption as well as captured packet analysis in the Government and commercial private sector.
