AltaSec® KG-250

Field-proven Type 1 HAIPE® INE with advanced networking features, including HAIPE to HAIPE keying

The first secure IP network encryptor to give you foreign interoperable capabilities is now enabling you to remotely rekey any HAIPE® device. The AltaSec KG-250 encryptor from ViaSat offers Type 1 high-speed IP network encryption with seamless foreign interoperability and centralized operation and management. This Inline Network Encryptor (INE) is certified by the National Security Agency/Central Security Services for use on classified U.S. Government communications networks, and is available to U.S. Department of Defense customers, and authorized international and Homeland Security organizations.
