The SKA Observatory will be the largest radio-astronomy facility on Earth, with two telescope arrays currently under construction in remote areas of Western Australia and South Africa

The Timescale is the “heartbeat” of each telescope, generating highly stable time and frequency signals from atomic clocks, which are distributed to the remote antennas over optical fibre for synchronisation

GMV has secured the INCIBE’s backing to launch the Luis Valle R&D+i Program, which focuses on two cybersecurity projects: 1) the development of a self-sovereign digital identity solution, and 2) a cybersecurity operations center (SOC) for the space industry

GMV is committed to furthering the digital empowerment of individuals through sovereign digital identity solutions that allow them to decide how and when they share their personal information online

The cybersecurity of satellite networks is crucial for countries’ protection and operations. Developing an SOC for the space industry will mitigate the risks of possible security incidents, protecting us against unintended socioeconomic and security consequences

With public investment of €224 million, the Luis Valle Program has secured the largest amount from the IECPI, making it the best-funded cybersecurity initiative in the world

The Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC) has awarded GMV a contract for the development of the satellite’s data reception, mission planning, processing and user services system

MBZ-SAT is the most advanced satellite in the region for high-resolution satellite imagery and will provide globally accessible commercial images

The research proposal focuses on two projects: the development of a self-sovereign digital identity solution and a security operations center (SOC) for the space industry

Both projects have been approved by the Strategic Initiative for Innovative Public Procurement (IECPI) of Spain’s National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE)

GMV ushers in a new era of digital empowerment, where users can take control of their online identity and decide how and when to share their personal data, thanks to self-sovereign digital identities

The development of a cybersecurity management center for the space industry will mitigate the risks of potential security incidents in satellite networks, preventing major socioeconomic consequences
