#AFANational | Last week our team wrapped up their time at the Air & Space Forces Association's Air, Space & Cyber Conference! As the battlespace becomes increasingly connected and contested, our focus remains on delivering an enduring information advantage. We had incredible conversations this week about securing mission-critical data from the tactical edge to orbit. A few highlights from our time on the exhibit floor included: 🔹 Demonstrating how TACDS® securely shares mission-critical data across security domains in contested environments for faster and more informed decisions. 🔹Highlighted how truMLS® streamlines and strengthens multilevel information sharing at varying security and access levels without compromising mission security. 🔹 Connecting the Edge: Highlighting tactical communication solutions like the URC-300®, the NGSR for isolated personnel, and the Quiver™ SDR for autonomous swarming. We were also proud to have our VP of Space & Embedded Cryptographic Solutions, Dan Feller, take the stage to share his insights on cyber resilience and mission assurance alongside fellow industry leaders. Thank you to everyone who visited our booth! Keep the conversation going at GDMissionSystems.com
