Impeva Is A HERO For DoD


Impeva Labs homepage Impeva Labs, Inc. has announced the Company's Global Sentinel® Satellite Tag has been awarded Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance (HERO) certification by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).

This certification is a requirement for any electromagnetic transmitting device that operates in close proximity to ordnance, and is only given after extensive testing and evaluation by the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, VA. The HERO certification allows Impeva to extend its services to provide continuous global monitoring for all DoD cargo.  Impeva Labs is already supporting several DoD supply chains in demanding environments including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Jordan, and Kuwait. The addition of HERO certification and the expansion of operational uses further validate the value and reliability of Impeva Labs’ Global Sentinel®.

Under a five year, $20 million Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) U.S. Army contract primed by ARINC, Impeva Labs has developed and demonstrated a variety of solutions representing the state of the art in Automatic Identification Technology (AIT). Known as the Next Generation Wireless Communications (NGWC) for Logistics Applications, the contract focuses on developing AIT solutions that combine advanced wireless communications technologies like global SatCom and mesh networking while meeting the highest requirements for security and Information Assurance (IA).
