Peraton is partnering with Rivada Space Networks to offer a unique, ultra-secure low earth orbit network capability to support mission-critical US government communications around the globe.
Based in the US, Peraton is already using first generation LEO constellations; the company will now work with Rivada Space Networks by to ensure that its customers have access to the latest innovation in secure space architecture as part of their trusted and highly differentiated national security solutions.
As the first unified global communications network, Rivada’s Outernet is transformative. A global low-latency point-to-point network of 600 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites, it is a unique next-generation constellation combining inter-satellite laser links with advanced onboard processing and routing to create a ubiquitous optical mesh network in space. This “orbital network,” in which data stays in space from origin to destination, creates an ultra-secure satellite network with pole-to-pole coverage, offering end-to-end latencies much lower than terrestrial fiber over long distances. And by routing traffic on a physically separated network, it provides a layer of defense for any organization that needs to share data securely between widely distributed sites.
“We are committed to delivering state-of-the-art technology solutions to the US government,” said Chris Valentino, chief innovation officer at Peraton. “By establishing a highly secure global communications backbone, the Outernet not only fortifies digital infrastructure on a global scale, but it sets the stage for a fresh surge of innovation for our US government customers to expand their capabilities to meet new challenging mission needs.” He added: “By tapping into a truly independent global network, we can offer a new level of security, performance and global reach.”
Declan Ganley, CEO, Rivada Space Networks, said: “We are delighted to be working with Peraton to enhance their portfolio of services for national security, intelligence, federal and commercial customers. Unlike traditional “gap-filler” LEO systems which bridge the last mile between the satellite and the nearest gateway, Rivada’s game-changing Outernet is a fully inter-connected, MEF compliant private space network that re-defines connectivity in terms of security, latency, capacity, efficiency, and coverage. It is fast becoming the system of choice for secure data communications.”
