CS-4000 System

Trusted Network Security Platform (TNSP)

With converging network infrastructures promising to reduce network acquisition and operating costs, enforcing service and network use policies is key to unlocking the revenue potential of next generation networks. CloudShield's CS-4000 Trusted Network Security Platform powers the next generation of high-speed network security and service control solutions. Addressing the shortcomings of a network equipment market dominated by closed, fixed-function appliances, the CS-4000 platform offers an adaptable, active network device that combines CloudShield's patented deep packet inspection capabilities together with high-performance, general purpose computing for scalable, flexible performance.

The CS-4000 is a modular chassis supporting three high-speed packet processing slots for Content Processing Accelerators (CPA) or CloudShield patented Deep Packet Processing Modules (DPPM) supporting up to 40Gbps of software-driven content processing capacity per module. Interface modules provide 160Gbps of network bandwidth, improved port density and various network interface configurations for seamless insertion into carrier networks.

CloudShield's platform architecture design has been validated by the most demanding organizations and accredited in EAL4+ and DCID 6/3 PL4 environments. To ensure the security and robustness required of true critical infrastructure solutions, the CS-4000 platform is hardened against attack, both at the operating system and with physical security countermeasures protecting the system itself. The CS-4000 is the highest assurance platform available for integrating commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and deep packet inspection applications for next generation networking.

The CS-4000 provides a flexible, open hardware and software environment for network solutions. Cloudshield's DPPM processors support the industry developed packetC programming language with an open-source community of applications. Multi-core CPA processors provide an environment for enterprise commercial and open-source software without porting that benefits from telecom robustness and security enhancements of the CS-4000.
