The Secure Network Interface Card (SNIC) project aims to innovate network security through the design of a revolutionary network card that incorporates an integrated firewall for enhanced security and flexibility. With the goal of utilizing a single piece of hardware for this purpose, the project is currently in the development phase, with all essential components ordered or on hand. The team has completed the schematic, marketing materials, and is actively addressing layout challenges. Future plans include finalizing the layout, manufacturing the board, testing the system, and preparing for a design presentation.

CURRENT STATUS • All components on order or on hand • Processor • Flash Memory • SDRAM • Network Chips • Supporting Chips • Supporting Resistors and Capacitors
CURRENT STATUS • All components on order or on hand • Development kit has been tested with our custom compiled operating system. • Schematic completed and externally reviewed • Marketing glossy completed by Solidus Design • Company to fabricate board chosen • Layout is in progress
CHALLENGES • Have processor send filtered network data to the host computer through PCI bus • Getting populated board back in time to debug and make a possible second revision • Programming Flash for first time
FUTURE PLANS • Finish Layout by today! • Get board manufactured and populated • Modify the software to boot the OS on our system. • Fully test and debug our system with a possible second revision. • Work on a way to display our design for Design Night. • Documentation
