Global Trusted Data at Speed
We understand the criticality of global connectivity and secure and trusted data at speed for actionable intelligence and resilient operations to successfully meet modern day mission and business objectives. Designing and building optimized size, weight, and power (SWaP) satellite payload processing for high-performance with reduced radiation risk is what we do best.

Network Management & Processing Intelligence for Agility, Responsiveness, and Precision
SEAKR designs Mesh-network processing solutions with Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) and Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) in mind. Our strategy increases connectivity and secure communication channels for resilient tactical battle management operations and commercial business avenues.
Mission Prime
On-Orbit Technology Demonstrations
Mission Prime for Mandrake I
Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) technology and risk reduction mission. In parallel to the Defense Advanced Research Agency’s (DARPA’s) Blackjack’s Pit Boss program, Mandrake features satellite integration of SEAKR technology for radiation mitigation and processor performance validation. Launched fall 2020, the fully operational platform has proven success by executing a tactical maritime experiment, demonstrating mission autonomy, over-the-air (OTA) updates, massless payload deployment, and sensor edge processing and exploitation.
Mission Prime for Mandrake II
Dual vehicle optical laser communications risk reduction & technology demonstration mission for DARPA and the Space Development Agency (SDA).
The mission is designed to demonstrate optical communications between spacecraft, ground stations, and operational United States Air Force (USAF) air assets. Mandrake II launched in July 2021 on the Space-X Transporter-2.

Storm King
A hybrid Communications and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) system, leveraging SEAKR processing and signal collection capabilities. Storm King enables the Department of Defense (DoD) missions and modern-day commercial applications with similar RF processing requirements.
Storm King RF Processor Software Defined Radio (SDR)
Hybrid ISR system designed to meet modern day BMC3 needs. Adaptable to support multi-band, muti-channel, multi-carrier, variable instantaneous bandwidth, discrete and spread sectrum signaling waveform and modes of operation. The Dual-RCC Subsystem Module is comprised of a Power Supply Module (PSM), a Re-Configurable Computer (RCC0 & RCC1), an RF Sampling Processor (RSP), and a backplane.
Storm King RF Payload
The RF payload provides flexibility to execute dynamic individual missions: Broadcast COMMS, Messaging Receiving (RX), and Electronic Intelligence (ELINT).
SEAKR Sentinel BMC3
SEAKR's Sentinel BMC3
Blends firmware and software for processing algorithm performance, enabling optimal cyber-resilient space systems.
BMC3 Processing
SEAKR Sentinel BMC3 is a network solution, providing network management, mission autonomy, sensor processing, and sensor fusion. With origins designed to support DARPA’s Blackjack Program, the processor is an autonomous, collaborative, distributed space enterprise, designed to self-task, process, and distribute tactically relevant information to both manned and unmanned subscribers.
Built-In-Cybersecurity Solution
Integrated Commercial Solution for Classified Programs (CSfC). Security with inner and outer encryption firewall, featuring NSA Controlled Cryptographic (CCI) compatibility for legacy and tactical links. Security features divide between a Secure Middleware, Hardware Policy Enforcer, Sidecar Proxy to monitor application traffic and messaging. An open source container system allocates and monitors processor and memory resources.
Satellite Processing for Multi-Layer Architectures
Similar to the SDA tranche initiatives, SEAKR Sentinel BMC3 supports layered architecture approaches with sophisticated Interoperable high-performance applications and cost-optimized performance. Applications include Software Defined Networking, Software Defined Encryption, Defensive Cyber Operations, Autonomous Mission Management, and Open Architecture Multi-Mission Interface (MMI). The BMC3’s capabilities align with modern day Battle Management pursuits.
Modular Design
Modular in design, Sentinel includes a Controller Encryption Module (CEM), Power Supply Module (PSM), Reconfigurable Computer (RCC), and rigid backplane connector; complete with a Board Support Package (BSP) and boot loader software.
