General Dynamics (GD) Canada has introduced a new SD8010 Smart Display for rugged ground combat vehicles conducting missions in harsh military environments, which can securely handle classified and unclassified information on a single screen.
GD Canada general manager David Ibbetson said that military vehicles typically require separate computing assets for both these types of information systems, creating a drain on space and power.

"Our new smart displays provide our customers with a solution for information access across different security domains simultaneously, without compromising security, reliability or data and eliminating the need for separate information systems," Ibbetson said.
The new flexible and rugged platform is naturally convection-cooled; it does not need separate control and display processor units, and can provide improved access to information whenever and wherever required within the vehicle.
Featuring multiple independent levels of security/safety (MILS), a high-assurance security architecture for controlled information, the SD8010 Smart Display uses GD’s trusted embedded environment (TEE) to interface and process information at multiple security levels.

Designed specifically for tactical environments, TEE can also be deployed on various GD designed high-assurance products for homeland security applications.
