The recently created United States Space Force, or USSF, and the U.S. Air Force Research Lab has chosen blockchain firm Xage Security to develop data security systems.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Xage Security said it was awarded a contract to provide end-to-end data protection for the USSF. The company will employ its blockchain-based Xage Security Fabric solution for the project.<\/p>\n

The company said Xage Security Fabric has a unified platform that can secure all systems and removes single points of entry so hackers can\u2019t wipe information. It will allow the USSF to verify who accesses systems, ensure satellites continue to function securely even if ground equipment goes offline, and protect data until fully transferred to operational units.<\/p>\n

This is the second contract Xage Security won from the U.S. Air Force, following the\u00a0first one signed in December 2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The USSF was established in December last year to defend space and acquire military space systems.\u00a0According to the University of Illinois<\/a>, space systems are infrastructure and vehicles that work together to perform outer space tasks. These can be satellites or even spaceships. Since many space systems heavily rely on communication and geographical positioning, it\u2019s crucial that data being sent through cannot be compromised.<\/p>\n

Xage Security CEO Duncan Greatwood said blockchain meets many of the complex needs of the USSF:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe USSF requires decentralized enforcement of security to establish space domain resilience and objective situational awareness\u2013\u2013across every asset and data element.

The U.S. Department of Defense, which oversees all military branches including the Air Force and the USSF,\u00a0has been interested in blockchain<\/a>\u00a0for a while. It awarded Indiana-based blockchain firm Simba Chain a contract to provide security for sensitive research and development data in March this year. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, has also been involved in blockchain since 2019.<\/p>\n
