Warfighters increasingly rely on secure, undeniable connectivity. As a nation’s adversaries target critical infrastructure, joint forces must be able to continue net-enabled combat and operations in the face of DDIL environments, determined adversaries, and insider threats.  

With IT services moving off-site to centrally hosted designs, the ability of edge networks to reach those services is critical. Methods of connectivity are targets in cyber warfare.

How will your users be able to reach the critical services they need if links are attacked?

How long will it take to move to contingency communications?

What is the cost of that transition; money, equipment or even lives? What if your infrastructure could do this before you even realised your primary links were out?
With the Juniper Session Smart Router (SSR), we are building resiliency into your network with tactical, enterprise, and cloud connectivity that automatically manages your traffic to ensure constant connectivity and optimal performance for mission-critical C5ISR command and control applications.
