Local and municipal governments, federal agencies, state legislatures, and even the Pentagon use data to optimize their work and improve national security, the public sector, and law enforcement. From fraud detection1https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2015/12/04/fact-sheet-big-data-across-federal-government to health and human services, data delivers predictive insights that drive actionable intelligence. In defense, time can be a challenge, but access to critical data allows military leaders to act as fast as possible.
Deploying BRYCK® in any of these scenarios presents an opportunity to use data to manage government activities and to prevent cyber and physical crimes from happening. This revolutionary device offers a complete management solution by capturing data directly at the source and transporting it fast and securely to a processing facility.
Staggering Amounts of Government and Defense Data
Staggering Amounts of Government and Defense Data
Data generated by all levels of government is truly staggering. Sources show the Pentagon alone produces more than 22 terabytes of data each day2https://www.defensenews.com/pentagon/2017/04/06/pentagon-tech-advisers-target-how-the-military-digests-data/.
Other branches of government create data relating to economic activities, social welfare protection, population groups, as well as identification, tax, health, and justice system records.
In defense, data is generated constantly by military vehicles, equipment such as drones, personnel records and deployments, and intelligence about other countries’ activities.
Law enforcement agencies can transform data into actionable intelligence by using modern analytics tools.
Managing Defense and Government Data
Managing Defense and Government Data
Data captured by the Department of Defense (DoD) is transferred to multiple data centers for storage and processing. According to military sources, the number of data centers required to manage DoD data solely is believed to be around 3,350.
Data is captured on-site and at the edge and is transported to the nearest data center. Connection takes place via dedicated, high-speed, 25 Gbps WANs that can transmit 200 terabytes per day. However, the cost of a single connection exceeds $30,000 per year.
Transferring data using dedicated, high-speed, WANs causes delays in accessing insights, exposes data to potential security breaches, and risks data losses when malfunctions occur.

BRYCK®: A Groundbreaking New Solution
BRYCK®: A Groundbreaking New Solution
BRYCK® enables governments and defense organizations to capture, process, and transport data rapidly using couriers with security clearance.
By capturing up to 200 terabytes of data per device, this solution can reduce data management costs by 90% within the first year3Pitch deck P46. The use of big data is central to any efforts to achieve coherent operations across multiple agencies4https://www.defensenews.com/pentagon/2017/04/06/pentagon-tech-advisers-target-how-the-military-digests-data/, and BRYCK® is pivotal to achieving this.
If global government and defense organizations are to withstand cyberattacks by enemy actors, they must use technologies that help process the volumes of data produced. Artificial intelligence can transform the influx of data into intelligence that enables leaders to identify previously unseen trends, bypass bureaucratic conventions and move the data that drives the world faster and more effectively5https://warontherocks.com/2020/02/the-input-output-problem-managing-the-militarys-big-data-in-the-age-of-ai/.
