SPACE

Space has rapidly evolved into a contested domain.

C2Core® Space is built on the operationally proven C2Core® enterprise platform, the foundation for our C2Core® Air and C2Core® Cyber solutions as well. Lessons learned over decades of working with operators have resulted in an intuitive user experience that accounts for the vast number of complexities involved in planning, tasking, assessing and re-planning in a time critical environment.

We have worked closely with space operators to seamlessly adapt these tools to the space domain and add support for generating key strategic artifacts including the Combined
Space Tasking Order (CSTO) and the Space Operations Directive (SOD).

It is critical to protect prized strategic assets in orbit and ensure access in future conflicts. A key enabler to our success in space is a comprehensive solution that provides space operators with overall situational awareness and facilitates the rapid execution of all phases of the planning cycle from strategy to assessment, enabling a swift identification and response to both routine and potentially threatening situations.
