Mercury and Nightwing partner

On October 6, Mercury Systems, Inc. and Nightwing announced an agreement to enhance the cyber resiliency of Mercury Systems hardware with Nightwing cyber resiliency technology.

Through this agreement, the companies will offer pre-integrated cybersecurity and anti-tamper solutions that enhance the integrity of applications for the entirety of their runtimes. This collaboration gives government customers an expertly curated set of security capabilities shaped by Nightwing’s experience spanning U.S. military and intelligence community missions.

“This agreement brings together Mercury’s trusted hardware technology portfolio with one of the nation’s foremost cybersecurity providers to better protect critical customer missions,” said Tom Smelker, Mercury’s senior vice president of processing technologies. “Collaboration between commercial suppliers increases delivered capability while reducing total cost of ownership. Together we will give our customers and partners more options to meet their performance, affordability, and maintainability needs.”

“Mission-critical systems are more open and connected than ever before,” said Tim Zentz, Nightwing’s vice president of Cyber Offense and Defense Experts (CODEX). “Cyberattacks can come from unexpected vectors—over the air, through compromised components in the supply chain, or even through infected maintenance equipment. The integration of our cyber resiliency technology with Mercury’s industry-leading hardware products and solutions will provide customers with greater security and faster, more efficient fielding of equipment.”
