1 Oracle Spatial SIG Industry Requirements for Securing Geospatial Applications The role Oracle technology can play 18th May 2005 Great-Circle Technologies, Inc. Burke, Virginia

2 Who we are Great-Circle Technologies, Inc., (GCT) is a geospatial information technology (IT) small business specializing in the design, development, and deployment of advanced geospatial intelligence solutions. GCT addresses customer needs through the conceptualization of innovative solutions that bridge the best value of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies and industry standards with government-owned-technologies (GOTS) and/or customer maintained legacy systems. GCT s primary customer base is centered around the Defense and Intelligence communities and developing innovative geospatial intelligence COTS products. The GCT AutoOrtho product suite represents the first fully autonomous orthorectification workflow product line that leverages OGC web services and an Oracle Spatial back-end. 18 May 2005 Oracle Spatial SIG 2

3 Geospatial Intelligence Architecture Trends We are helping our customers define and adopt an Enterprise Geospatial Intelligence Architecture (EGIA) EGIA represents a Enterprise-wide Service Oriented Architecture Vendor neural implementations Standards-based (OGC, XML, web services) Best-of-Breed Geospatial & temporal data are considered just another form of business data managed within the bi-temporal, spatial data infrastructure Enterprise-wide security model Codified workflows replace stove-piped tools Autonomous geospatial intelligence workflow compute servers Emphasize geospatial intelligence tradecraft development Enable Geography-of-Interest and Epoch-of-Interest queries Data Steward Model 18 May 2005 Oracle Spatial SIG 3

4 Security Model Oracle 10g Spatial with Label Security (row level) Content encryption (field level) Implements role & profile specific encryption/decryption services Enables secure distribution of database query results throughout enterprise Secure LDAP to provide single sign-on authentication Identifies security services available on a role & profile basis Web server, application server, and compute servers all interface with security services to protect exposed data Disk cache, temporary files, etc Clients (including COTS) extended to include hooks to invoke security services as community of interest standards Web service standards (OGC) to be extended as well 18 May 2005 Oracle Spatial SIG 4

5 Oracle Spatial Georaster data type offers the capability to centrally manage all imagery products within a bi-temporal, spatial data infrastructure (BSDI) Traditional imagery archives use data store to manage meta descriptions of images that point to a file system path to a specific file type Traditional approach decouples security descriptions from files BSDI enables image transformations to be stored as pixel metadata Store and secure raw pixels once Support n pixels transformations as metadata Service requests select just what is needed, just when it is needed Minimizes the redundancy of secure data throughout the enterprise 18 May 2005 Oracle Spatial SIG 5

6 Summary Industry is migrating towards more holistic Enterprise Geospatial Intelligence Architectures (EGIA) Given the implied data steward model associated with EGIA, a codified security model is required to successful implement an EGIA DCID 6/3 PL-5 like Oracle Spatial provides the basis for a bi-temporal spatial data infrastructure Normalizes secure data representations Enables a business logic driven set of security services tied to roles & profiles Enterprise-wide security services can be integrated with Oracle to extend Oracle Label Security 18 May 2005 Oracle Spatial SIG 6
