Information Assurance Information Assurance is the practice of preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and trust in information and information systems. It protects information system behavior and data. Concept/Framework Information Assurance For Satcom Information Assurance For Satcom is the set of security, integrity, availability, and governance controls applied to satellite communications systems and traffic. Concept/Framework Inter Satellite Link An Inter Satellite Link is a communication path used for data exchange between satellites, enabling spacecraft to relay information directly in orbit. Hardware ISR The data-gathering component within the broader C4ISR capability framework, encompassing collection, processing, and dissemination of information about the operational environment, increasingly gathered through uncrewed aircraft systems and other remote sensing… Concept/Framework JADC2 The U.S. military concept for connecting sensors and decision-makers across every operational domain — land, sea, air, space, and cyber — into a single unified network, extending C4ISR capability integration… Concept/Framework Jamming An electronic warfare technique that deliberately transmits interfering radio energy on or near a target signal's frequency to overpower or degrade it at the receiver, denying the intended receiver a… Concept/Framework Key Management For Satcom Key Management For Satcom is the process of generating, distributing, storing, rotating, and revoking cryptographic keys used in satellite communications. Software LEO LEO is low Earth orbit, an orbital regime relatively close to Earth used by satellites in communications and observation systems. Concept/Framework LEO Satellite A LEO Satellite is a spacecraft operating in low Earth orbit used for communications, observation, navigation, or other orbital services. Hardware Link 16 A standardized, jam-resistant tactical data link protocol used by NATO and allied military forces to exchange real-time situational awareness, targeting, and command data directly between aircraft, ships, and ground units.
