TriSept Corporation, a leading provider of launch integration and mission management services, has announced its new TriSept Security Enhanced Layer (TSEL) satellite security solution has successfully completed a series of rigorous vacuum chamber tests at Old Dominion University's Space Engineering Lab ahead of an upcoming suborbital test launch.
TriSept's software team and ODU aerospace engineering students pushed the satellite security software to extreme environmental pressures, ahead of that suborbital trial with a partner organization test satellite set to lift off aboard a RocketStar Cowbell launch vehicle.
Nearly 50 unique high pressure tests, in a variety of thermal stress trials, demonstrated the consistency and reliability of TriSept's TSEL operating system (OS) during its delivery of high-performance protection even in the most intense temperature conditions aboard the satellite mission hardware.
The TriSept TSEL OS, capable of detecting, tracking and eliminating known and emerging vulnerabilities on conventional and small satellites, will undergo a series of environmental and operational tests during the upcoming thirteen-minute low altitude test flight. The TSEL OS is in the midst of commercial rollout this week and earning full flight heritage aboard an orbital satellite mission in the near future.
"TriSept continues to push the TRL or technology readiness levels of our TSEL satellite security operating system with rounds of stringent tests in the harshest of simulated space environments and scenarios," said Rob Spicer, TriSept CEO. "Our satellite security platform passed with flying colors in the ODU aerospace engineering lab, as we focus on suborbital test flights with RocketStar in the first half of the year and full flight certification aboard a space mission manifested by TriSept later this year," Spicer noted. "The bottom line is our breakthrough satellite security solution is commercially available now and we're already seeing very strong demand across the industry."
TriSept's TSEL OS was developed to meet rising demand across the satellite industry for a managed cybersecurity solution that secures an embedded device much like a terrestrial server is protected. TSEL offers a series of automated mechanisms and updates that deliver far more detailed audit data, near-real-time security analysis and patch updates along with "zero trust" verification layers that protect against hackers and provide an accurate account of what's happening aboard the satellite at all times.
A rising number of attacks on critical infrastructure across the U.S. and the world have shown just how vulnerable spacecraft can also be, especially as the vast majority of small satellites launched into orbit are ill-prepared to protect themselves in the event of adversarial threats.
