| Project Detail |
The overall objective of the project OCSIC - the Optical Coding System of the Information Channel is to verify technological and economic feasibility of a completely new technology for effective protection of the integrity and reliability of data transmitted by optical fibers through the use of information coding in the phase and polarization of light pulses in the physical layer of the fiber.
Nowadays, millions of kilometers of fiber optic cables are spanning across the world, carrying incredible amount of critical financial, governmental, defense, medical as well as personal information. Deploying fiber optic cables in itself is extremely expensive, and investing further in the security of these cables (via area surveillance and mechanical access control, fencing, CCTV monitoring etc.) increases the overall cost to a great extent. Developing intelligent physical layer fiber security solutions at affordable price is therefore an imperative trend and an urgent market need.
ZAZ innovation is exactly such an intelligent solution providing high level of data protection (which with current level of computer technology cannot be desyphred in less than 20 years), optical fiber interruption monitoring, detection of violation location with high accuracy (20 m), fast data transfer with easy installation – all of this at as little as 30% of the price of other (market state-of-the-art) solutions. The solution is dedicated to the military, governmetal, financial, and critical infrastructure sectors in EU and NATO countries.
