美军国防信息系统局(DISA)于8月15日启动了一个新的安全文件共享站点,作为替换军队运行的流行工具的一部分,该工具远远超出了其创建者的意图并成为发送大型文件的首选站点。
DISA创建的该工具称为国防部安全访问文件交换(SAFE),允许用户在整个部门安全地传输文件。该系统取代了美国陆军航空兵和导弹研究开发和工程中心(AMRDEC)运行的SAFE站点,该站点将在本月退役。AMRDEC系统去年脱机了几个月之久。
新的SAFE站点将允许用户传输大小为8千兆字节的文件,这是AMRDEC SAFE允许的2千兆字节限制的升级。根据该机构的新闻稿,该网站将允许用户多次下载文件并一次发送多达25个文件。类似Dropbox的服务还允许用户访问文件七天,而不是之前系统中的两天。
“该服务为我们的现役和预备役成员,国防部公务员,合格的国防部承包商人员,甚至我们的联邦任务合作伙伴提供卓越的功能,”DISA系统开发总监Brian Hermann在一份新闻稿中表示。“现在,当DoD团队成员需要发送或接收大型文件时,他们有一种简单而安全的方法来执行此操作。”
该版本称,新的SAFE站点还包括可选的包级加密,允许文件在静止时加密。
去年11月,在系统发现漏洞后,陆军禁用了AMRDEC SAFE站点。它于二月恢复。由于维护和维护能力方面的问题,系统在漏洞之后仍然无法运行。
国防协作服务的计算机工程师Sophie Johnson-Shapoval在一份声明中说:“它从来没有打算成为国防部成员的企业解决方案。” “我们正在与AMRDEC的团队合作,在这两项服务之间进行转换,我们的目标是提供更好的服务。”
这个新工具基于开源代码,并在国防部首席信息官截止日期后的六个月内完成。

The ‘SAFE’ replacement for a popular Army file-sharing tool
By: Andrew Eversden 2 days ago
The Defense Information Systems Agency launched a new secure file sharing site Aug. 15 as part of an effort to replace a popular tool run by the Army that had far exceeded what its creators had intended and become the go-to site for sending large files.
DISA created the tool, which is known as Department of Defense Secure Access File Exchange (SAFE) and will allow users to use securely transfer files across the department. The system replaces the SAFE site run by the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Research Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC) and which is being retired this month. The AMRDEC system was taken offline for several months last year
The new SAFE site will allow users to transfer files as large eight gigabytes, an upgrade from the two gigabyte limit that that the AMRDEC SAFE allowed. The site will allow users to download files several times and to send up to 25 files at once, according to a news release from the agency. The Dropbox-like service will also allow users to access files for seven days, up from two days in the previous system.
“The service provides exceptional functionality to our active and reserve service members, DoD civil servants, eligible DoD contractor personnel, and even our federal mission partners,” Brian Hermann, systems development director at DISA, said in a release. “Now when a DoD team member needs to send or receive a large file, they have a simple and secure method in which to do so.”
The new SAFE site also includes optional package level encryption, which allows the files to be encrypted at rest, the release said.
Last November, the Army disabled the AMRDEC SAFE site after a vulnerability was found in the system. It was reinstated in February. The system remained out of operation following the vulnerability because of problems with sustainment and maintenance capabilities.
“It was never intended to be the enterprise solution for DOD members that it turned into,” Sophie Johnson-Shapoval, a computer engineer with the Defense Collaboration Services, said in a statement. “We’re working with AMRDEC’s team to transition between the two services, and our goal is to provide an even better service.”
The new tool is based on open-source code and was completed in six months after a deadline from the Defense Department’s chief information officer.
