Firmware for

The Tablet:
A Secure Communication System

The Tablet is a secure communication device designed to implement the NSAR (Non-Symmetric Accessibility Relation) security policy.

How it works

All data handling components are air-gapped from upstream components to prevent information leakage to any connected device. Asymmetric encryption masks every message sent, and decryption is handled in such a way as to guarantee plaintext is hardware inaccessible to any networked device.

Installing Dependencies

  • Clone this repository.
git clone git@git.blackboxlabs.dev:/srv/git/tablet.git
  • Clone Cryptopp into the root of this repository.
cd tablet
git clone https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp.git
  • Install Cryptopp by:
cd cryptopp/
make
sudo make install

How to Compile

  • To compile binaries from our C++ files; use g++, include the cryptopp folder for the headers, and link the cryptopp library like so:
g++ rsa.cpp -o rsa.bin -I cryptopp/ -lcryptopp
  • To compile README.md and other markdown files with a github aesthetic, first install grip
pip3 install grip
  • then do:
grip README.md --export README.html

How to use

  • To generate keyfiles:
./rsa.bin -g name_of_owner
  • To encrypt a message: (name on keyfile should match name of recipient for convenience)
./rsa.bin -e "your message" -k name_on_public_keyfile -o ciphertext.dat
  • To decrypt a message:
./rsa.bin -d ciphertext.dat -k name_on_private_keyfile

Contributing

For contributors to the project; do this before making your first commit:

  • Install pre-commit
cd /path/to/this/repository/
sudo apt install pre-commit
pre-commit install

(we do all of our development on linux)

  • To test updates to the readme and other GitHub flavored markdown, simply install Grip and feed it your desired file.
pip3 install grip
grip README.md

  • Then follow the link provided by the Grip sever for a live preview of your work.

  • When satisfied with your changes you can compile to an html file with:

grip README.md --export README.html
