Security at Home and AbroadThe Role of Satellites
A Commercial Solution
Abbas Yazdani,President, ARTEL, Inc.
A Contract Designed for Maximum FlexibilityMeeting Increased Demand for Critical Communications
• 1991 Gulf War– Congressional mandate – DoD responded with CSCI – First step: MTC 1995– Second Step: DSTS-G February 16, 2001
• Bandwidth• Teleports• Earth Terminals
– Not Much Activity Until:
• 9/11 – Burst of Requirements for Afghanistan Coverage– Followed by Requirements for Iraq Coverage
DSTS-G

• Pre-proposal technical, service, and price tradeoffs to ensure “best of breed.”
– Level 1: Competition Among Providers– Level 2: Competition Among DSTS-G Primes
• Detailed link budgets for all solutions provided with proposal– Transmission Plans developed with End User
• Enhanced flexibility to buy engineered end-to-end services– Quality engineered solutions derived from multiple providers– Positive Control of carriers and customer support by cleared
personnel– Maintains anonymity of end-users and missions– Host Nation Approvals from multiple sources– “Back stop” end user/DISA to catch & correct engineering errors
DSTS-G
Solutions IntegrationMeeting the Government’s Need for Security Applications
Observed Vulnerability (All Unintentional):• #1: Operator Error—“Blue on Blue” RFI, especially polarization effects• #2: Other Accidental RFI
Vulnerability to intentional Attack:• If an enemy wants to jam our communications—he will always be able to!
• The critical issues are: (a) early detection, (b) determination of cause, (c) geolocation, (d) resolution—including military action.
Vulnerability
The ground and cyber segments are more vulnerable than the RF links and the satellite itself. --NSTAC STF Report
Secure NOCMonitoring of Signals: Global HW/SW/VPNTroubleshooting to resolve problems—no matter who is at faultCleared Personnel: US Citizens with SECRET+Secure point-of-contact—buffer between “uncleared/foreign” service providers and DoD
The DSTS-g primes have the infrastructure and procedures to detect interference and determine its cause. Our satellite operator partners can geolocate. Resolution of unintentional interference is by negotiation—intentional interference is a politico-military event.
DSTS-G
Ability to Minimize Vulnerability

• In the Fall of 2001 the DSTS-G Primes received a Task Order RFP at 7:30 PM
• By 8:30 PM, DISA had received multiple proposals—all using a PAS transponder
• Well before midnight, the Task Order was awarded—at a price “below market” to ARTEL
• Before midnight, the transponder was available to support the warfighter*
DSTS-G
Fast, Flexible, and Cost-Effective:An Example of Post-9/11 Response
Backup Slides
• COTS M&C SW, COTS Report SW
• NOC staffed by cleared (SECRET Plus) US citizens
• Secure communications: SIPRNet, VPN (for Global M&C feeds), STU-III, Classified Fax
• Restricted entry (staffed lobby, card key to enter office area, additional card entry to NOC area
• Backup facility, UPS

• FEMA—the Federal Emergency management Agency— needed to establish Disaster Field Offices to support the recovery effort. Having already been placed on alert, ARTEL personnel were dispatched by FEMA under an existing contract to establish the information technology and communications infrastructures at these Field Offices.
• On February 4th, NASA, working through the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) put out a request for communications services to support the recovery effort. This effort was competed through DISA’s DSTS-G contract. ARTEL and Intelsat (The ARTEL Team) offered these services to the Government for the sum of $1 (one dollar) –-bearing all the incurred costs as our contribution to the recovery efforts in memory of our fallen heroes. The necessary communication services were set up in short order.

• Pre-proposal technical, service, and price tradeoffs to ensure “best of breed”
• Link budgets for all solutions provided with proposal
• Transmission Plans developed with End User

What We Owed1What We Owed1
• Assess current government operations concepts and tactics, techniques and procedures for managing and protecting commercial SATCOM networks employed by DoD. This assessment shall form the basis for recommendations on:
– Improvements in government processes for operational management as well as for integrated DoD and federal responses to … incidents of purposeful interference and direct attacks…
– Operational management modifications may include changes in processes for information sharing and analysis and coordinated responses…
1 DoD Commercial Satellite Communications Study Terms of Reference (Draft Version 3.4) 1 July 2004
Aggressive Lateral USG and Industry Collaboration
What We’ve DoneWhat We’ve Done
• Executed UCP responsibilities as DoD single point of contact for EMI/RFI resolution
• Signed MOUs with three owner-operators for continued commercial geolocation support
• Streamlined and codified TTPs to expedite upchannelreporting of suspected EMI/RFI events
• Planned exercises for TTP validation (first CPX completed 1 Oct)
• Staffing STRATCOM Directive 710-4, MILSATCOM Electromagnetic Interference Resolution Procedures
“The Buck Stops Here”
Where We’re Going Where We’re Going
• Refine EMI/RFI TTP– Critical information to the right person at the right time in the
right format – Strengthen partnerships with CoComs, Services, Agencies,
Departments, Cml SATCOM Owner-Operators; build more – Educate and exercise “the new paradigm” (with JFCOM)
• Include Commercial SATCOM partners in requirements definition process
• Future: – Establish relationship with DHS– Agile bandwidth management for the war fighter
• Contact USSTRATCOM CL18: 1-402-232-5527; 1-402-232-5532
Serve our Warfighters and Nation better than ever before

The Growing Role of Space-Based Systems in
Defending America
Colonel Patrick Rayermann26 October 2004
Growing Role of Space in Defense
• Intelligence– Geospatial (mapping)– Change detection (imagery)– Consequence Management– Monitoring
• Navigation (position, navigation & timing)
• Friendly (“Blue”) Force Situational Awareness– Blue Force Tracking– Movement Tracking System
• Missile Warning
• Weather
• Communications– Augmentation– Restitution– Broadcast Information
Intelligence
• Geospatial– Based on imagery– Collected by commercial and Government systems– Monochromatic; multi-band; multi-spectral & hyper-spectral– Map products based on data collected “now”
• Change detection– Ability to compare images recorded at different times– Variety of approaches allow change detection
• Consequence Management– Impact of disasters can be identified and measured– Commercial and Government systems
• Monitoring– Primarily, use of commercial and civil systems for domestic needs– Military systems can augment, if properly authorized

Navigation
• Position– Verification of position– Permits rapid position determination without surveying– Facilitates common understanding of relative locations
• Navigation– Ubiquitous– Military and commercial receivers– Available to local, state and Federal authorities
• Timing– High accuracy– Permits rapid installation of IP-based networks
• Air Traffic Control– Domestic– International– Independent of ground-based systems
Friendly Force Situational Awareness
• Friendly “Blue” Force Situational Awareness– Leverages commercial and military systems– All based on GPS data– Many systems require SATCOM for relay of position information– Provides a common understanding
• Movement Tracking Systems– Allow monitoring of items in shipment– Broad commercial applications and acceptance– Government and military exploit– Major application here is the tracking of supplies (logistics)
