We are excited to announce that we were awarded a contract by the Space Development Agency for a Mesh Network, NSA Certifiable, Cryptographic Solution. We will develop a prototype mesh network cryptographic solution for Optical Intersatellite Links (OISL) in low earth orbit (LEO) that incorporates significant low size, weight and power (SWaP).
The 1-year period of performance is a Phase I SBIR STTR award with a total value of $250,000. Under this phase of the contract, we will demonstrate a transformational architecture that will deliver high speed encrypted communications across the mesh network. The anticipated benefits of the NKrypt solution are ad-hoc cryptonet establishment, Multi-level security options, security of control plan data, limitation of radiation effects, and latency and throughput optimization.
We are proud to be teamed with Howard University, Lynx Software Solutions, and Pernix Consulting on this effort.
