Satellite operator Rivada Space Networks partnered with CloudSat Services provider Wiseband, with an aim to bring secure connectivity solutions to the Middle East region on Sunday.
Rivada’s global low-latency point-to-point orbital network, called OuterNET, through which the secure connectivity between satellites in space take place. OuterNET is a unique next-generation constellation, which operates in combination with inter-satellite laser links with advanced on-board processing, said the company.
This orbital network, where data stays in space from origin to destination, creates an ultra-secure satellite network with pole-to-pole coverage, offering end-to-end latencies lower than terrestrial fibre over similar long distances, the company added.
Ahmed Hassan, CEO of Wiseband said, “Wiseband is looking to tap onto Rivada Space Networks’ highly secure point-to-point secure communications network to provide advanced and customizable secure solutions to our existing enterprise customers and to develop the emerging markets in Middle East.”
Declan Ganley, Executive Chief of Rivada Space Networks said, “As a completely new type of LEO constellation, the OuterNET can provide the Middle East region with a next-generation infrastructure for secure, resilient communications and network expansion.”
The Berlin-based company said it will showcase OuterNET at the Middle East Space Conference, where Ganley will participate in the panel exploring how new satellite networks can play an essential role in bringing connectivity to the Middle East and the prospects for satellite communications services in the region.
