Embedded security solutions
Intelligent, programmable Type 1 cryptographic security
Protecting Top-Secret government communications and applications
Viasat’s embeddable security modules protect Top-Secret and below data and communications by providing flexible, affordable, accredited cryptography for a wide range of government and military applications, including:
- Tactical unmanned systems
- Handheld communications
- Weaponized platforms
- Sensor networks
Providing flexible, programmable security
Our Type 1 embeddable security modules are certified by the National Security Administration (NSA), Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2, and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and feature our PSIAM™ crypto architecture — intelligent, proven, programmable protection that can evolve with your needs through software upgrades instead of costly hardware replacements.
Proven and certified
Fielded in tens of thousands of systems with over 25 different existing configurations as well as customizable modules, and NSA Type 1 to FIPS 140-2 certified.
Quicker integration and deployment
Features open standards, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies, and accredited modules to minimize security compliance requirements.
Complete cryptosystem
Includes key management, memory, power conditioning, zeroization, and trusted bypass and control.

U.S. Department of Defense embedment projects
MIDS JTRS
We designed a crypto subsystem with our PSIAM architecture for the Multifunctional Information Distribution System Joint Tactical Radio System (MIDS JTRS) Link 16 terminal — a multi-channel, multi-security-level software-defined radio with NSA Type 1 certification that is used by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force.
FAB-T
Boeing selected us and our PSIAM architecture to provide security for the Family of Advanced Beyond Line-of-Sight Terminals (FAB-T) radio system, which is designed to enable secure exchange of military information between ground, airborne, and space platforms.
Navy CDLS
As a subcontractor for Cubic, we provided cost-effective networking, encryption, and antennas for the Common Data Link Systems (CDLS) Navy program by embedding second-party crypto chips into our PSIAM architecture.
