Cyber attacks can not only quickly harm data and computing networks, but also damage computer-controlled critical infrastructure, such as electric power, telecommunications, water supply, air traffic, and first-responder communications.

Given the complex interconnections between infrastructure components, an attack on a single sector could lead to cascading failures, with potentially devastating consequences.

For decades, Sandia has successfully protected its own data and networks from intrusion. Of necessity, we have developed expertise in cryptography, as well as sophisticated techniques to detect and thwart cyber attacks.

Now available for national security missions, our knowledge and methods offer such potential benefits as:
