A SCIF is a secured facility used to process, store, and discuss classified information. These structures must meet strict standards defined by ICD 705 and other federal regulations, including acoustic, electromagnetic, and physical security controls.
NED’s SCIFs are constructed to be compliant with:
-
ICD 705 and TEMPEST standards
-
HEMP (High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse) resilience
-
Ballistic and blast resistance as needed
-
Access control, intrusion detection, and RF shielding requirements
Designed for Resilience, Built for Security
Northstar SCIFs are engineered for the modern battlefield and national security landscape. Our solutions ensure:
-
Acoustic shielding to protect sensitive conversations
-
RF attenuation to prevent signal interception
-
Blast and ballistic protection for high-threat zones
-
Cybersecurity integration to protect digital assets
Each SCIF is designed in-house, manufactured by Northstar Building Systems, and delivered mission-ready with minimal setup.
Ready for Deployment
Whether you need a tactical SCIF to deploy to a hostile region or a permanent secure facility for classified operations, Northstar Enterprise and Defense has the solution.
