According to the report, Texas-based GetChkd has secured a $1.9-million contract to bolster the US Air Force and US Space Force’s satellite communications security with blockchain infrastructure. Blockchain is a shared digital ledger where entries are strictly audited and verified at different security levels.
The report said that information stored through the solution is viewed by authorized users only, with exchanges across the network limited to approved classified and unclassified satellites, sensors, and command systems.
The report added that the latest award was signed by the services’ SpaceWERX innovation arm and the Air Force Research Laboratory through the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) program. This accelerates contracting for emerging military products and expands access for startups.
