BrickStor HDR — Mission-Speed Recording, Secured
Lossless high-rate recording and replay for ISR, SIGINT, radar, and test-range environments — with integrated cyber defense, AES-256 FIPS 140-3 encryption, and a direct path from the edge back to the analysis enterprise.
Mission recording, visualized
Monitor channels, recordings, replay sessions, and system health from a single pane of glass — purpose-built for HDR operators and analysts.
Built for missions where every byte matters
Sensor and signal collection is only valuable if the capture is complete, trustworthy, and accessible to analysts. BrickStor HDR is engineered from the media layer up to deliver all three — and to connect the mission edge back to the enterprise without compromises.
Ingest at sensor speed. Every byte, every mission.
Purpose-built for sustained high-throughput recording from radar, SIGINT, RF, video, and telemetry feeds. BrickStor HDR absorbs ingest rates that crush general-purpose NAS and keeps the recording intact — no dropped frames, no gaps, no rebuild windows that lose a mission.
What you record is exactly what gets analyzed.
Lossless recording paired with a self-healing architecture that detects and corrects even single-bit errors on the fly — so the recording handed to analysts is bit-for-bit identical to what the sensor produced, throughout its lifecycle.
Ruggedized for the edge. Connected to the enterprise.
Airborne, afloat, mobile, and forward-deployed form factors pair with Hub Central and Transparent Data Movement so captured data flows back to the analysis enterprise when connectivity allows — without manual drives, custom scripts, or compromised chain of custody.
Mission capture that holds up under scrutiny
Engineered for sustained line-rate capture — the recording is complete when the mission ends.
Real-time and accelerated replay turns collection into analysis without a separate ingest platform.
HDR, SP, and Hub Central deliver capture, analysis, and long-term retention as one workflow.
Capture-first engineering,
enterprise-grade security
Most programs pick between two bad options: a general-purpose NAS that can't sustain sensor ingest, or a point-built recorder that captures well but leaves security and lifecycle as someone else's problem. BrickStor HDR was designed to end that tradeoff. HDR is available in a CSfC for DAR ready configuration.
Built for capture, not retrofitted
General-purpose enterprise NAS was engineered for mixed office workloads. Sensor recording exposes every weakness: burst buffering, metadata locks, write amplification. BrickStor HDR is tuned for sustained ingest from the media layer up.
Security lives with the data — not in a separate tool
With security as a forethought, HDR delivers protection without sacrificing performance. HDR ships with up to two layers of AES-256 FIPS 140-3 encryption, ABAC, and audit integrated into the platform — protection travels with the recording.
Connected to the analysis enterprise
Capture that never reaches the analyst is wasted capture. Hub Central plus Transparent Data Movement orchestrate offload from HDR to BrickStor SP at the home fort — encrypted, attributed, policy-controlled, and auditable end to end.

Frequently asked questions
- BrickStor HDR is a high-speed data recording and replay platform engineered for sensor-intensive missions. It captures data at sustained high throughput rates while protecting recorded data with BrickStor SP's integrated cyber defense — Active Defense, immutable snapshots, ABAC, and AES-256 FIPS 140-3 encryption.
- General-purpose NAS — NetApp, PowerScale, VAST — is engineered for mixed enterprise workloads and struggles with sustained sensor ingest. Point-built recorders capture well but typically lack integrated security, ABAC, and enterprise integration. BrickStor HDR combines the capture-first engineering of a recorder with the security and lifecycle management of a Cyberstorage NAS, and connects natively to BrickStor SP at the home fort via Hub Central.
- Any high-throughput data stream — radar, SIGINT, RF, video, telemetry, and instrumentation data from ISR platforms, test ranges, and sensor systems.
- Yes. BrickStor HDR supports ruggedized form factors suitable for mobile platforms, shipboard systems, airborne environments, and forward operating bases.
- With the same security stack as BrickStor SP — Active Defense, immutable snapshots, ABAC, AES-256 FIPS 140-3 encryption, and audit logging — so mission data is protected from tampering and unauthorized access throughout its lifecycle.
- Hub Central orchestrates the HDR-to-SP offload using Transparent Data Movement. Data flows back encrypted and policy-controlled, preserving chain of custody and letting analysts work against the recording using the full Cyberstorage stack at the home fort.
