SecureSync from Orolia is the Only Time and Synchronization Device Approved by DISA for Government Networks


Orolia's SecureSync time and synchronization servers have been selected to support en route radar systems across the U.S.

The only Time and Synchronization Device approved by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for use in U.S. Government networks, SecureSync provides unparalleled reliability, security and flexibility to synchronize critical aviation operations.

FAA employs a variety of radar types for short-, medium- and long-range air traffic control requirements. These diverse radars require different types of timing signals and outputs to suit their operations. Orolia's SecureSync provides the necessary timing outputs and signals required for these radars. The time server's outstanding ability to provide resilient, accurate and reliable timestamps for the data that it receives from radars is used to quickly organize the data for the aircraft control user interface.

Orolia was selected by the FAA for this competitive program based on its proven timing and synchronization technology, and its ability to offer multiple output options as COTS products that do not require additional research and development time or investment.
 
Only SecureSync combines multi-GPS/GNSS signal synchronization, options for alternative signals and BroadShield GPS anti-jamming/spoofing protection for transportation systems.

Jean-Yves Courtois, CEO of Orolia, stated that consistently accurate timestamps and the synchronization of thousands of real-time flight data points are essential for safe and efficient en route air traffic operations. The company is proud to support the FAA's radar data and aircraft control user interface requirements to improve air travel services nationwide.
