Devis Accepted to Present Cybersecurity Framework at INFORMS Annual Meeting
Devis is honored to announce that our research paper, “Strengthening Secure Communications: Addressing Operational Risks in Messaging Platforms,” has been accepted for presentation at the 2025 INFORMS Annual Meeting, taking place October 26–29, 2025, at the Georgia World Congress Center and the Omni Atlanta Hotel at Centennial Park in Atlanta, GA.
Advancing Secure‑Messaging Research
Authored by David Gurzick (Chief Technology Officer), Jonathan Shaw Wood (Senior Engineer), and Jerry Werner (President), the paper tackles the operational pitfalls that can undermine even end‑to‑end–encrypted platforms. Drawing on recent misuse cases, we propose a framework grounded in three pillars:
Isolated, session‑based communications
Ephemeral keying
Continuous, real‑time access validation
These measures embed zero‑trust principles directly into session management, eliminating persistent attack surfaces while preserving usability.
GABRL: The Foundation of Our Framework
Central to the proposed architecture is GABRL—Devis’s next‑generation secure‑communications platform. GABRL spins up ephemeral, peer‑to‑peer encrypted tunnels that use quantum‑resistant, FIPS‑validated cryptography and rotating certificates. The software‑only solution removes VPN concentrators, supports Wi‑Fi/LTE/Sat links, and aligns with EO 14028 and NIST SP 800‑207 zero‑trust guidance—making it ideal for contested military networks, remote enterprises, and IoT deployments alike.

Leadership Perspectives
“Operational security failures often occur between the crypto and the user,” said David Gurzick, CTO. “Our approach closes that gap with dynamic authorization and keys that vanish the moment a session ends.”
Jerry Werner, President, added, “Presenting at INFORMS underscores Devis’s commitment to converting rigorous research into mission‑ready solutions for our partners.”
