T109 GPS/GLONASS/ BEIDOU/ GALILEO Time server with OSNMA

webmaster — 2024-06-27T14:43:27Z

Boost Your Network Security with the T109 OSNMA-Enhanced NTP Server
In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, ensuring the integrity and accuracy of time synchronization across your network is more crucial than ever. Traditional Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers have long been the backbone for time synchronization in various industries, but they are not without vulnerabilities. Enter the next generation solution: the Heol Design T109 NTP server, enhanced with Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA).

What is OSNMA?
OSNMA, or Open Service Navigation Message Authentication, is a feature developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) as part of the Galileo satellite navigation system. This technology provides cryptographic assurance of the authenticity of the navigation data, making it much more resistant to spoofing and other malicious activities that can compromise the accuracy and security of time synchronization.

Why Choose an OSNMA-Enhanced NTP Server?
Enhanced Security:

Spoofing Protection: Traditional NTP servers can be vulnerable to spoofing attacks where false time signals are sent to disrupt the network. OSNMA provides cryptographic validation, ensuring that the time signals your network receives are authentic and tamper-proof.
Data Integrity: With OSNMA, you can be confident that the time data has not been altered in transit, safeguarding against potential data manipulation that could lead to operational disruptions.
Increased Reliability:

Redundancy: An OSNMA-enhanced NTP server utilizes data from the Galileo satellite constellation, which operates independently from the US GPS system. This dual-system approach increases reliability and ensures continuous time synchronization even if one system experiences issues.
Accuracy: Galileo's high-precision timing, coupled with OSNMA's authentication, ensures that your network's time synchronization is not only accurate but also verifiable, reducing the risk of time-related errors in your operations.
Compliance and Future-Proofing:

Regulatory Requirements: Many industries, particularly those dealing with critical infrastructure, are subject to stringent regulations regarding cybersecurity and data integrity. OSNMA-enhanced NTP servers help meet these regulatory requirements by providing an extra layer of security.
Future-Ready: As cyber threats evolve, so too must your security measures. By adopting an OSNMA-enhanced NTP server, you are investing in a future-proof technology designed to stay ahead of emerging threats.
Key Features of Our OSNMA-Enhanced NTP Server
Cryptographic Authentication: Ensures all received time data is verified for authenticity.
Multi-Constellation Support: Leverages both Galileo and GPS for enhanced reliability.
High Precision Timing: Provides nanosecond-level accuracy for critical applications.
Easy Integration: Seamlessly integrates with existing network infrastructure and is compatible with standard NTP protocols.
Robust Security: Built-in protection against common vulnerabilities like spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks.
Furthermore, the T109 provides web interface in English, French and Spanish.

In a world where time synchronization is critical to the operation and security of your network, an OSNMA-enhanced NTP server offers unparalleled protection and reliability. By integrating this cutting-edge technology into your infrastructure, you can safeguard your operations against evolving cyber threats and ensure the highest level of accuracy and integrity in your time synchronization.

Upgrade to the T109 OSNMA-enhanced NTP server today and experience the future of secure, reliable timekeeping.

GPS/GLONASS/ BEIDOU/ GALILEO Time server in SATA format

webmaster — 2021-09-09T15:05:15Z

The T108 SATA Time server / Multi-GNSS Clock has been designed to provide very accurate timing information trough an Ethernet link (using NTP/SNTP protocol), for Network synchronization and measurement applications, without the need to be connected to external Network, hence preserving your Network insulation.
It is a 2.5'' SATA board, very easy to integrate inside an embeded PC.
Based on a high performance 32 channels GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO/BEIDOU chipset with -160dBm sensitivity and T-RAIM algorithm, it delivers extremely accurate timing information, even in poor signal level conditions (indoor, urban canyons and signal obscured environments).
The OCXO oscillator offers high accuracy even if GNSS satelites signals have been lost.

Containers automatic level measurement and report

webmaster — 2018-02-15T11:43:17Z

Automatic level measurement for containers
The N112-US module, designed in 2016 by Heol Design, allows a daily report of the level of a container of waste, liquids, or used clothing.
Waste collection is then optimized.

The built-in ultrasonic sensor measures the filling level of the container accurately, and transmits this value via E-mail, SMS or on a data server (in UDP).
The measurement interval is programmable from 2 minutes to 24 hours.
A motion detection (moving the container) or a door opening also triggers the awakening of the module and the sending of an alarm.

The transmitted data are as follows:
measurement of the filling level of the container from 0 to 100%
accurate GPS position within 3 meters
time and date
ambient temperature
container door opening alarm
motion detection alarm
battery level
The built-in Lithium battery allows a range of 6 months to 1 year (depending on the period of awakening and the ambient temperature). It is easily interchangeable, since it is fixed by a strong magnet on the container wall.
The module itself can be fixed by screws or a permanent magnet.

Oyster thieves arrested thanks to GPS antitheft tracker

webmaster — 2016-04-26T17:08:12Z

This past March, triggering a sealed IP68-N105 tracer on an oyster farm in Portugal led to the arrest of individuals by the Police.
At night, the GPS tracker hidden in a bag oyster (which was in standby mode for several months at the seabed) warned SMS park owner an unusual move, which immediately alerted the police, with GPS live tracking.
