GMV strengthens its commitment to the Defense Sector with the strategic acquisition of Autek

GMV announces the strategic acquisition of 100% of Autek, a leading Spanish company in Cross-domain systems. As a result of this agreement, Autek will be integrated into GMV's group of companies. Autek's current management team will lead the Cross-domain area within GMV on a global level.

With 25 years of experience, Autek has established itself as a reference in the development of Cross-domain products, systems, and solutions, which enable the secure exchange of information between different domains based on predetermined security policies, without compromising data security. These solutions are essential in complex military systems and in any systems requiring high levels of security, whether in the space sector, such as the Galileo satellite navigation system, or in the security sector, such as applications for critical infrastructure protection. Additionally, they have clear applications in public administration and corporate environments, among other fields. 

Autek is the first Spanish manufacturer of Cross-domain products with proprietary technology and holds certifications from the Spanish National Cryptologic Center (CCN) and NATO, ensuring compliance with the highest security standards.

For GMV, this is a strategic operation as it strengthens its leadership and expands its offering as an independent integrator in the defense sector, allowing it to access essential niche technology in the defense and security field. Specifically, Cross-domain solutions provide a significant competitive advantage in the areas of command and control networks and Joint Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (JISR) systems, areas where GMV is a leader in the defense market.

This operation continues to demonstrate and reinforce GMV's commitment to innovation and excellence in the development of critical technologies for defense and global security.
