- increases the expeditionary abilities of troops / crisis management structures;
- substantially improves (including automates) the process of troops command / crisis management and control of weapons systems through the use of centralized portal which provides effective cooperation in the chain of command including simultaneous work on shared documents;
- ensures efficient deployment and modern protection (also in work places organization) of functioning of stationary and mobile (field) positions and command / control posts, using available wired and wireless connectivity devices;
- substantially increases the security of military components and their elements, including soldiers and vehicles, through on-going monitoring of GPS position and possibility to provide fast and accurate support or evacuation;
- provides safe exchange information with use of IP Crypto devices;
- reduces long delays in acquisition, exchange and display of information, diversity and incompatibility of information systems currently used by armed forces;
- provides comprehensive, versatile and compact solutions, modular structure and scalable system in accordance with NATO technical and quality standards.
JASMINE is a system based on a component model, in accordance with NATO Network Enabled Capability, which recommends data sharing between distributed decision nodes. This is why the system’s elements were designed to be operated and used on all military levels, from the highest command posts to a dismounted soldier level.
The architecture of the JASMINE system is oriented on services according to the concept of SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) including NNEC assumptions. It recommends creating IT systems that implement and use functionality-oriented services from the user's point of view and at the user level. It assumed also a creation of closed interfaces components that meet business requirements. The components can be reused several times at their higher functional level. The services recommended by the concept with the assumption to provide constant access points while hiding the internal ways of implementation. Furthermore the components communicate with each other thorough the common communication medium and they have independent access to it.
The JASMINE platform consists of the main components:
JASMINE (in all versions) – like no other solution in this area – is highly rated by experts, users and their superiors in Poland and abroad. JASMINE (its many software and hardware components) successfully passed multiple years of operation and comprehensive tests at the battlefield, during many foreign and national exercises, workshops, laboratory tests, including:
- military missions in: Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Central African Republic, Congo, Chad, the Baltic countries, the Balkans, Kuwait and contingents in Latvia, Romania and Italy, Iraq, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Lebanon;
- subsequent editions of exercises:
- coalition: COMBINED ENDEAVOR, NATO CWID and NATO CWIX (held in many European countries), BOLD QUEST (held in the USA), ALLIED SPIRIT and COMBINED RESOLVE (held in Germany), ANAKONDA, DRAGON and SABER STRIKE (especially the editions held in recent years e.g. in Poland),
- tactical, command-staff and studies realized in Poland: ASTER, BAGRAM, BLUSZCZ, BORSUK, BRATEK, CEDRON, COMPACT GREY, DRAGON, EUFRAT X, GÓRY, KUGUAR, LATOWICZ, MAZURY, PIENINY, PIERŚCIEŃ, ŚWIDER, STOKROTKA and TWIERDZA;
- international projects and programs with a global reach, e.g. as part of the Multilateral Interoperability Program MIP (Multilateral Interoperability Programme), in which JASMINE products are the only Polish ones that have been present for the longest time and are one of the few that have passed the highest level of these tests;
- education activities, carried out mainly in trainig laboratories and exercises held by Polish military research and scientific centers: Command Systems Support Center of the General Command of the Armed Forces, War Studies University (formerly National Defense University (AON)), Military University of Technology, Communications and IT Training Center and Calisia University;
- Polish, NATO, European and US research laboratories, in which they were checked (including in the field of IT security) for over a year. The positive results of this process determined that high-performance military ICT components for the new generation of the Patriot system, produced by TELDAT, originate from JASMINE's technological and functional solutions.
The most important of the above processes are illustrated in the chart below.
Moreover, JASMINE components have been used for many years as the reference solutions for the systems of the other countries armed forces. The following documents confirms this reliably.
The reliability, security and interoperability of the above solutions have been confirmed, among others, by a wide range of documents at the disposal of the Polish Armed Forces, as well as the following sample certificates, reports, etc. issued for JASMINE and its numerous specialized systems, devices and software:
- electromagnetic protection certificate as defined in the Act on the Protection of Classified Information, for core JASMINE platform devices (designed to work in classified areas), that meet the ZOBT-500A requirement for the TPZU-2 level (equivalent to NATO SDIP-27 Level B);
- certificates, statements and test reports (conducted mainly in accredited research laboratories) confirming that all JASMINE devices meet numerous requirements for compliance with Polish and NATO defense standards;
- certificates and confirmation of interoperability for C3IS JASMINE (including its software dedicated to, among others, the following systems: HMS JASMINE, BMS JASMINE, DSS JASMINE and JFSS JASMINE), issued by the NATO C3 Agency (currently NCI Agency – NATO Communications and Information Agency). No other Polish or vast majority of global systems have this type of documents;
- further, also unique confirmation of the highest level of interoperability of C3IS JASMINE under the international MIP Programme (Multilateral Interoperability Programme), in which, among others, passed tests at the highest level with the NATO reference system – MTRS (MIP Test Reference System);
- placing C3IS JASMINE on the Approved Field Product List (AFPL) because it confirmed its readiness to: ensure the required level of security, interoperability and proper operation in military classified ICT networks and thus effective and safe use as part of allied activities. This took place during research carried out in February and March 2019 by the NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI Agency), mainly in the field of: compatibility and correct functioning in highly classified allied networks, as well as interoperability with NATO FAS (Functional Area Systems) and cybersecurity;
- operational references for C3IS JASMINE (including its systems: HMS C3IS JASMINE, BMS C3IS JASMINE, DSS C3IS JASMINE and Web Portal JASMINE), issued by National Defense University (currently War Studies University).
