ASHBURN, Va. – The PacStar brand of Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions in Ashburn, Va., is introducing trusted computing security for the company’s PacStar IQ-Core software. The End User Device Manager (EUDM) provides setup, configuration, monitoring, and updating for remote workers who need secure laptop computers.
PacStar EUDM manages networks that require a National Security Agency (NSA) Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC)-approved solution for transmitting classified information over untrusted networks.
EUDM employs a secure real-time operating system (RTOS) rated at Evaluation Assurance Level 6+ from the Green Hills Software INTEGRITY Global Security (IGS) subsidiary in Columbia, Md.
PacStar EUDM for trusted computing can bulk configure IGS secure laptops quickly with automatic creation and installation of certificates. It supports remote over the air updating, and extends the existing certificate and VPN management capabilities of PacStar IQ-Core Software.

“Until now, the only option for renewing security certificates or updating software on secure laptops has been to physically ship the device back to the data center,” says Chris Wiltsey, senior vice president and general manager at Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions.
Key advantages of EUDM include provisioning, updating, monitoring, and infrastructure management for secure laptop computers. PacStar EUDM integrates with other PacStar software such as IQ-Core Network Communications Manager (NCM), IQ-Core Crypto Manager (CM), and IQ-Core Remote Operations, and Management (ROAM).
