Space for Security

Harnessing space capabilities to protect critical infrastructure and sovereignty

Space-enabled security solutions for air, land, sea and cyberspace

In an increasingly digital and interconnected world, space-based technologies are playing a critical role in security, defense and surveillance. At Sener, we apply our space heritage to the design of systems that safeguard sensitive infrastructures, provide secure communications and enhance situational awareness. We integrate cybersecurity, navigation, earth observation and communications into interoperable platforms tailored for national and allied missions.

We develop dual-use space systems that support applications in defense, civil protection, border surveillance and emergency response. Our RF, COMINT and data link solutions enable secure information transfer across multiple domains — while our autonomous systems enhance operational awareness on the ground.

Why choose us

We bring to the security domain decades of experience in building reliable satellite subsystems and communication architectures. We are active participants in major European Defense Fund initiatives, as well as bilateral and multinational security projects. Our solutions are aligned with the operational needs of our armed forces and those of our international partners.

Trusted partner in European Defense and national cybersecurity capabilities

We contribute to the technological autonomy of Europe through programs such as NGWS/FCAS, Eurodrone and the SpainSat NG constellation. Our capabilities in active antennas, COMINT systems and autonomous navigation give our clients tactical superiority and data sovereignty in high-risk scenarios.

How we work

We collaborate with governments, security forces and the defense industry to deliver tailored solutions based on mission profiles. From system-level architecture to qualification and integration, we ensure compliance with security protocols and defense interoperability standards.

Multi-platform solutions integrating COMINT, data links and anti-jam SATCOM

Our portfolio includes secure satellite terminals with active pointing systems, tactical radio-frequency chains, data encryption layers and antenna arrays adaptable to land, sea, air and space platforms. We lead the development of ITAR-free payloads and security-enhancing technologies.

Expertise

At Sener, we offer space for security solutions including COMINT systems, data links, anti-jam SATCOM terminals, AI-based autonomous navigation and cybersecure platforms. These technologies ensure resilient communications, situational awareness, and mission success across air, land, sea and space in defence and critical infrastructure protection.

Securing sovereignty with space-based technologies

At Sener, we leverage space technologies to enhance national security, providing dual-use systems for defence, surveillance, and civil protection. With expertise in COMINT, SATCOM, and cybersecure platforms, we deliver interoperable, ITAR-free solutions that ensure tactical superiority, data sovereignty, and protection of critical infrastructure across air, land, sea, and cyberspace.
