Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF). The Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility is a secure area with restricted access that stores and processes classified information.
SCIF Trailers – Mobile Structures that are SCIF rated (DCID 6/9) and can be connected to the Brigade Headquarters for additional SCIF activities.
Server Rooms – Data Centers that directly support the BOC, NOC and SCIF areas as well as the SCIF Trailers.
Raised Access Flooring – High concentrations of copper and fiber optic cabling as well as the requirement for workstation flexibility mandated the use of raised floors.
SIPRNET – The requirement for secure networks within the buildings mandated the use of SIPRNET rooms and the use of PDS (Protective Distribution Systems).
Access Control – With thousands of dollars of equipment and secure information at risk access control and intrusion detection were implemented.
Secure Video Teleconferencing – Designing the Infrastructure to support Secure VTC.
