Sovereign SATCOM Networks: Maintaining Control of Your Data in Tumultuous Times

Tuesday, March 24 | 1:45 pm – 2:30 pm

Sponsored by Kymeta

Governments around the world recognize the value that alliances deliver when it comes to satellite communications (SATCOM). However, today’s geopolitical environment and rapidly evolving threats are causing allied nations to determine ways to maintain the sovereignty of their data and eliminate their dependence on information sharing by other countries. As such, they are implementing advanced communications services that deliver secure, resilient global connectivity and enhance warfighters’ situational awareness and operational effectiveness. For example, the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command’s Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global (PTS-G) program is focused on providing military users around the world with resilient, agile communications through proliferated small satellites. These satellites operate in Geosynchronous orbit and offer anti-jamming capabilities to enhance the warfighters’ situational awareness and operational effectiveness to meet emerging threats. This panel discussion will outline the steps that governments and commercial providers around the world are taking to build and maintain sovereign networks that provide the resilience and agility required to effectively operate. The panel will also discuss the collaboration between these nations and commercial industry to develop these capabilities.
