Overview

Intelligent Waves’ innovative technology leadership has proactively helped elevate Government cyber resilience in the cybersecurity sector as it launched GRAYPATH & Phantom solutions, as well as the successful launch of the US Air Force’s Crowd-Sourced Flight Data (CSFD) Program.

GRAYPATH: GRAYPATH (GP) is the next generation of cybersecurity expeditionary communications. Through its patented IP Spread Spectrum technology, GP leverages the cloud to randomize & distribute message packets through the simultaneous use of multiple transport paths & encrypted channels. GP algorithms optimize throughput by continuously sensing & adjusting message flow according to channel availability & bandwidth capacity creating a smoother connection even for HD video transmissions.GP dramatically lowers the risk of detection & interception & is nearly impervious to disruption.

PHANTOM: Phantom Next Generation provides a cybersecurity ability for organizations to access foreign points of presence to conduct remote open-source information gathering & research while at the same time protecting organizations & individuals from exposure to foreign intelligence. Intelligent Waves has achieved this by combining the GRAYPATH software-defined obfuscated network with the managed attribution capability of the Phantom platform in a secure but unclassified package.

CSFD: This year, IW was the visionary mastermind behind the $100 Million+ successful launch & growth of the US Air Force’s Crowd Source Flight Data (CSFD). This program enables rapid electronic warfare programming, improves data-driven debriefs, informs cyber intelligence & operational analysis, & aids rapid software development.

An essential contribution IW made to developing the new system was creating a new method for collecting, processing, & analyzing mission-critical data & securely disseminating it within hours. The system allows Joint Commanders access to critical data for about 6% of the cost of older systems that were only used by test communities for months. This is with 99% accuracy.

Key Capabilities / Features

GRAYPATH (GP) is the next generation of cybersecurity expeditionary communications. It is a simple, asymmetric solution that ensures robust, reliable, secure, non-attributable global communication for special operations of the U.S. military.


Phantom is IW's award-winning cyber-defense solution for ultra-secure communication. Phantom Next-Generation allows the DoD’s cyber defense operations community to access foreign points of presence to conduct remote data gathering & research while at the same time protecting organizations & individuals from exposure to foreign intelligence.


It has a low probability of detecting, intercepting, & exploitation of application traffic, as well as obscuring a user's location.


As demand surges for edge-fighter data that shape the battlespace for advantage, CSFD enables rapid electronic warfare programming, improves data-driven debriefs, informs cyber intelligence & operational analysis, & aids rapid software development.


How we are different
