Curtiss-Wright today announced the launch of its Ground Tactical Data Link System (GTS) Continuous Monitoring System, a centralized cybersecurity and compliance management suite designed to secure large-scale, geographically dispersed tactical networks and sustain assured coalition interoperability. As coalition military operations become increasingly integrated and cyber threats grow more persistent and sophisticated, this tactical network infrastructure remains secure, compliant, resilient and mission-ready.
The system supports allied and partner nations’ militaries that must satisfy sovereign cybersecurity mandates while also meeting U.S. requirements when connecting national networks to U.S. military systems.
“Partner nations operating distributed tactical networks must meet both sovereign cybersecurity requirements and U.S. compliance standards to maintain secure interoperability,” said Roark McDonald, Vice President and General Manager, Tactical Communications, Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions. “As coalition operations grow more integrated and cyber threats evolve, trusted connectivity to U.S. military systems must be continuously assured not periodically validated. Our GTS Continuous Monitoring System enables persistent cyber readiness and sustained interoperability across national and coalition environments.”
As tactical data link infrastructures expand across aircraft, naval platforms, ground systems, and fixed installations, continuous adherence to Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) standards and Risk Management Framework (RMF) processes is essential to maintaining trusted connectivity. The GTS Continuous Monitoring System delivers centralized visibility into network health, cyber posture, and compliance status, supporting DISA STIG enforcement and RMF alignment across distributed defense networks.
Engineered for Curtiss-Wright tactical data link system environments, the GTS Continuous Monitoring System aligns with defense-grade cybersecurity and interoperability requirements. The suite integrates centralized cyber event monitoring, automated Windows update management, redundancy oversight, secure automated backups, firewall monitoring, and embedded compliance enforcement capabilities simplifying adherence to national cyber policies while preserving secure coalition connectivity.
Already supporting national deployments spanning dozens of primary systems and multiple connected nodes across broad operational regions, the system enables rapid remote detection and mitigation in environments where physical access may be limited and threat response timelines are critical.
