""An important property common to these systems is how they balance performance with risk of detection. Both performance and risk of detection by the adversary are of paramount importance to the HCS user, whose needs are generally driven by mission requirements.""
""This was traditionally the realm of trial-and-error testing, weeks of research, and possibly just hoping a chosen design would work once deployed. That's where Maude-HCS comes in, with RTX claiming it makes finding the right design for a given situation just a matter of tweaking software settings.""
Maude-HCS is an open-source software toolkit released by RTX's BBN research arm for testing covert communication networks. Built with the Maude programming language, it enables experimentation with hidden communication systems (HCS) at practical scales. HCS techniques include protocol tunneling, obfuscation, and steganography, balancing performance with detection risk. This toolkit simplifies the design process for users, allowing them to adjust software settings to meet mission requirements without extensive trial-and-error testing.
