[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Information wanted on the Blacker Front End

smb@ulysses.homer.nj.att.com (Steven M. Bellovin) (01/27/89)

I'm looking for information on the Blacker Front End.  (The BFE is an
A1-level crypto box for TCP/IP.)  I've seen the document in the DDN
Protocol Handbook; I'm looking for an operational overview.  There was
a paper presented at the 1988 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy by
C. Weissman; unfortunately, the text was not received in time to be
included in the proceedings.  If anyone has that paper, or other,
similar papers, or a pointer to Weissman, I'd appreciate it.  I'm
neither eligible for, nor interested in, any classified material.
