Emerging threats and complex challenges to situational awareness require a next generation of sensor systems.
By Breaking DefenseMultispectral operations are the response to a dynamic world where hostile nations have well known and advanced capabilities in EW and cyber.
By Breaking DefenseThe DoD has partnered with the aerospace and defense industry to help solve one of the most complex challenges for the warfighter – enabling Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) and implementing Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2).
By Collins AerospaceUnder the contract, the company will lead an effort to streamline the Pentagon’s vast network infrastructure of non-service-specific agencies.

By Systel“Cybersecurity must be built into system design, and the human defender should be included early on in cyber defense engineering and programmatic priorities for both system usability and training,” according to the Pentagon’s chief tester.
By Jaspreet GillAssured Position, Navigation, and Timing (A-PNT) is slowly making its way into key-leader vehicles, with no concrete plans to address A-PNT for the rest of the fleet any time soon. An interim A-PNT solution from Leonardo DRS changes that for everyone.

By Brad D. Williams“The ultimate goal is understanding exactly what is happening on the network, who is connecting, what is connected, and what are those devices and users doing on the network so you can make sure that, where connection is necessary for a mission, it’s available but also that it’s secure,” Forescout’s Dean Hullings said.
By Brad D. Williams“If there’s one thing DoD and industry have done, it’s try a whole bunch of different tools over the last 10 to 12 years. What we have to do now is string them all together to show which ones work best for the capabilities the Army needs today and divest the ones that they don’t need,” Peraton VP Jennifer Napper said.

By Brad D. Williams“I have a mantra of ‘I want to kill to the [Common Access Card] as the primary authentication mechanism for the department’,” Lt. Gen. Robert Skinner said. “Industry has better authentication, and it’s not just two-factor, it’s truly multi-factor authentication.”

By Brad D. WilliamsGovini’s Billy Fabian said that for some JADC2 problems, the DoD has a “closing window… before the next generation of capabilities are too far along in development. Otherwise, it risks making its interoperability challenges even worse.”
