The following Independent Verification and Validation (IV & V) report documents and presents the results of a study of the Washington State Ferries Prototype Wireless High Speed Data Network. The purpose of the study was to evaluate and determine if real-time security monitoring applications could be consistently available from shore during the vessels normal daily operations as well as in emergency situations. The Washington State Ferries' Prototype Wireless High Speed Data network project aims to demonstrate new technologies that may provide real time surveillance capabilities and records for law enforcement agencies in the event of an emergency. Research methodologies included full-scale monitoring tests in combination with multiple week data collection phases. These were applied to track and evaluate high-speed wireless connections from the ferries to shore. It is the specific intent of this study to determine if the prototype network provides reliability, and protection against radio eavesdropping, network-based viruses, worms and traffic floods. The findings of the study were a result of multiple months of data collection from communication equipment placed on board the Washington State Ferry vessels. / NOTE: Final rept. / Supplementary Notes: See also PB2006-101180 and PB2006-500028.
