The largest challenge is time, because getting those requirements changed from a mindset of fine, large, exquisite, determined industrial systems to an end-state of something that\u2019s agile, incorporating innovative ideas that\u2019s being done at the speed of venture capital, are just two completely different things. NATO does a lot of things that help companies close that loop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>HawkEye 360 has an ongoing effort to try to solve a difficult maritime challenge of infrastructure cables that are being cut sometimes on a weekly and even daily basis in the North Sea. \u201cIt\u2019s a very vexing problem, and it can\u2019t be solved by just single operators together,\u201d Palm said. \u201cSo we\u2019re working through an innovation challenge. And it takes a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brown offered his take on the innovation challenge, talking about a NATO initiative called HEIST, which is short for hybrid space-submarine architecture ensuring infosec of telecommunications. HEIST began in July of 2024 and aims to make the internet less vulnerable to disruption by rerouting the flow of information into space in the event that undersea cables are attacked or accidentally severed.<\/p>\n<p><script>var AIAD_fcd45f981d570e35cee941b23edc69c7_6a6bd31e6a5f5;googletag.cmd.push(function(){var AIMAP_29b58f13885ebf8ea6b032f958eb0748 = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([992, 100], [[970, 90], [970, 250]]).addSize([768, 100], [728, 90]).addSize([320, 100], [320, 50]).build();var AIMAP_737ce075cc05dd766c8f8ea08f3faa73 = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([768, 100], [728, 90]).addSize([320, 100], [320, 50]).build();var AIMAP_21fe3bcfb86a8660aba4e721ee9338f3 = googletag.sizeMapping().addSize([1200, 100], [970, 250]).addSize([768, 100], [600, 300]).addSize([320, 100], [300, 250]).build();AIAD_fcd45f981d570e35cee941b23edc69c7_6a6bd31e6a5f5 = googletag.defineSlot('\/987\/satellitetoday.com\/via-satellite-digital-issue-ads', [ [600, 300], [300, 250], [970, 250] ], 'div-gpt-ad-1774631144891- 0-6a6bd31e6a5f6').defineSizeMapping(AIMAP_21fe3bcfb86a8660aba4e721ee9338f3).setCollapseEmptyDiv(true).addService(googletag.pubads());   });<\/script><script>googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1774631144891- 0-6a6bd31e6a5f6'); });<\/script><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne thing HEIST is looking at is how do you detect the cable interdiction right now? If you detect it, how do you use satellite networks to mitigate that event?\u201d He added that NATO is good at research and development projects and what matters. \u201cThe pace is picking up,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the \u201cTower of Babel\u201d that NATO is, having customers on the far edge being able to understand and interpret the requirements through a very basic procurement document means there\u2019s a lot of education that\u2019s required in between, Palm said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s required from the ground up. The appeal to NATO is to allow companies to not be afraid to go in and talk to user groups, or set up situations in which we can have honest and earnest discussions about NATO,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>One of the other issues discussed was standards for space traffic, led by Joe Chan, chairman of the Space Data Association (SDA). \u201cOne of the things that we potentially support is to help to provide space traffic management so we know what the traffic is to allow NATO or other organizations to detect non-routine activities in space so that they can use the resources and focus on them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s not really a standard in terms of how we manage the space traffic,\u201d Chan added. \u201cI think that\u2019s probably where we work together with NATO, and maybe help to promote that idea with other organizations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the SDA has experience in working with multi-national members with knowledge of how to exchange data in a way that is secure and trusted. \u201cBut one of the issues people sometimes do not feel comfortable with is sharing data, as we know that we have members from different companies, so we have a way to manage it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the SDA is to make safe space operations, he said. \u201cI think we\u2019ve been doing that. But we know that not everyone will share data.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NATO\u2019s space strategy needs to be defined, and the commercial satellite industry can help. Brown made the point that commercial capabilities in the last 15 years have grown exponentially, and NATO has a critical role in that. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s because NATO has a tremendous reach across countries, across threat environments, across operational entities, to make the point that commercial has a critical role \u2014 not just in broadband, but in all these elements that are critical to security of the NATO Alliance, and all of its members, \u201d he said. \u201cThat is what I would be looking for in a space strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Palm posed the question: Will the U.S. government protect commercial assets in space physically from interference? \u201cWe know there\u2019s a growing threat from strategic competitors. That, to me, comes first and foremost to mind. So is NATO willing to do that protection? Is that under their protection or not? I think it\u2019s in everyone\u2019s mind but probably best left unsaid because it\u2019s a really a very hard, difficult problem to try to assure people that their platform that is working on behalf of NATO will be protected.\u201d <strong>VS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>,<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"widget-title\">In This Issue<\/h2>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<!-- post id 533:
