When Qatar halted navigation due to a “GPS fault,” it signalled the Gulf’s first major GNSS disruption. Here’s what really happened — and what Gulf boards must do next.

Persistent GNSS jamming and spoofing are visible from the Black Sea to the Gulf. Understanding these hotspots is the first step toward a resilient, multi-layer PNT strategy.

NSS interference isn’t just a navigation problem; it’s a timing problem that can quietly destabilise ports, aviation, telecoms and the grid. Bridge Connect explains how and what to do next.

Quantum key distribution is powerful — but not for everyone. Here’s the board-level view on when to invest and when to wait.

Introduction: The Invisible Threat We Can’t Afford to Ignore In the early hours of a routine day in 2024, aircraft over the Baltic Sea...

By 2030, telecom towers will be more than passive masts — they’ll be intelligent bastions of national security. Discover how AI, SDRs, and 6G sensing will transform tower networks into the backbone of future defence and resilience strategies.

Before towers can host military sensors, boards must address governance. Who owns the threat data, who carries liability, and how will neutrality be preserved? This blog outlines the key questions TowerCo boards must answer before going dual-use.

TowerCos have a chance to become national security partners — and get paid for it. Explore how Defence-as-a-Service (DaaS) could create predictable, government-backed revenues by using towers as spectrum monitors, drone detectors, and resilience hubs.

Software-defined radios and edge AI can turn telecom towers from passive assets into active digital sentries. Learn how SDRs can scan for rogue signals, detect jamming in real time, and help networks stay online during hybrid warfare events.

Telecom towers are the most widespread infrastructure in any nation — and they could become its first line of defence. Discover how turning 18,000 cell sites into a distributed “digital wall” could protect against jamming, cyber-attacks, and drone incursions.

In recent years, the Middle East has become a notable player in the tech investment scene, with a keen interest in dual-purpose technologies. These innovations, which serve both civilian and military applications, have caught the eye of sovereign wealth funds and family offices across the Gulf region

In an era where technology underpins almost every aspect of our daily lives, the significance of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) systems cannot be overstated. These systems are the unseen backbone of countless applications, from ensuring the smooth flow of traffic to supporting critical infrastructure like power grids and financial networks. As the world becomes more reliant on these technologies, it is crucial for governments and industry leaders to collaborate eff

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, the importance of resilient Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) systems cannot be overstated. As our reliance on digital infrastructure grows, these systems are becoming the backbone of modern technologies, ensuring accuracy and reliability in everything from transportation to communication networks. For investors, understanding the potential of resilient PNT is crucial, as it represents a burgeoning avenue for innova

In an age where digital technologies dominate our daily lives, it's fascinating to see a piece of 20th-century technology making waves once more. Meet eLORAN, a navigational system that is resurfacing as a potential solution to modern-day technical challenges. Originally developed during World War II, eLORAN was designed to provide accurate positioning and timing information. As our reliance on GPS has grown, so too have concerns about its vulnerabilities, sparking renewed in

In an increasingly interconnected world, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have become a cornerstone of everyday life, powering everything from smartphone maps to complex logistics networks. However, as reliance on these systems grows, so too does the potential for risk, leading to new regulations that aim to ensure their reliability and security. These regulatory changes are crucial for anyone who depends on GNSS technology, as non-compliance could have significant
