Audit-Grade Decision Records for DoD Network Planning

CrestView PDS produces tamper-evident, cryptographically signed, externally verifiable decision records as the primary deliverable — not a side effect of network operations.

Decision Records as the Primary Deliverable

Everything — topology, discovery, proposals, scoring, workflow integration — serves the production of defensible decisions.

Tamper-Evident

Audit Trail

Hash-chained, signed, append-only records. Database-level triggers enforce immutability. Standalone verification tool allows independent verification without system access.

Deterministic

Optimization Engine

Ranked proposals via Pareto frontier, integer programming, and constraint propagation. Same inputs produce byte-identical output — verified across 250 test runs.

Vendor-Neutral

Multi-Vendor Support

Vendor-neutral topology model supporting Ciena, Nokia, Cisco, and Infinera equipment in a single deployment. No vendor lock-in.

Disconnected

Air-Gap Ready

Four deployment profiles: standalone, VM-native, OpenShift, RKE2. Node-count licensing via signed artifacts — no phone-home requirement.

Continuous

cATO Ready

Continuous evidence emission via OpenTelemetry. Self-attestation across 8 check types. 42 STIG controls assessed across 4 STIGs. FISMA Moderate baseline.

Human Authority

Human-Only Decisions

AI systems can submit proposals but architecturally cannot commit decisions. Enforced in code, not policy. The human planner always decides.

Performance

DISA-Scale Benchmarked

All metrics measured against a 15,000-node topology matching DISN operational scale. Memory footprint verified at 57 MB.

The Capability Gap Is Structural

CrestView PDS occupies a position no existing tool does: audit-grade decision records with multi-vendor support, deterministic optimization, and air-gap operability.

Every Role in the Decision Lifecycle

CrestView PDS serves everyone who touches a network planning decision — from the planner who makes it to the auditor who reviews it years later.

Primary

Network Planner

Record decisions once, defend them forever. Deterministic optimization removes second-guessing. Keyboard-first workflows respect your expertise.

Reviewer

CAB Member

Standardized review packages with alternatives evaluated transparently. Spend 10–30 minutes approving, not hours digging for documentation.

Auditor

IG Investigator

Verify any past decision without CrestView access. Standalone verification tool. Cryptographic proof the record hasn't been tampered with.

Executor

Operations Team

Clear implementation instructions with rollback procedures. ServiceNow integration for change ticket creation. No ambiguity.
