This service enhances the resilience of locally critical GNSS systems, such as GPS and Galileo, by providing a signal that is highly resistant to spoofing and jamming, ensuring the reliability of timing systems. Iridium STL delivers global coverage, with additional regions expected to be authorized for commercial use as partners expand and train their sales and support teams.

Iridium STL: Protecting Critical Infrastructure from GNSS Jamming and Spoofing

Europe has experienced a significant increase in GPS jamming and spoofing, with similar activity on the rise in parts of Asia. These attacks pose serious risks to critical infrastructure, including transportation systems, energy grids, data centers, telecommunications networks, and financial services—all of which could benefit from adopting more robust PNT signals like Iridium's STL service.

Broadcasting a signal 1,000 times stronger than GPS, the Iridium® STL service is particularly well-suited for indoor use, eliminating the need for rooftop antennas. This makes it a more secure and cost-effective timing solution for protecting essential systems.

"We're cognizant of the threats facing GNSS-reliant critical infrastructure around the world and our responsibility to deploy the antidote as quickly as possible," said Iridium CEO, Matt Desch.

"The average person is more and more aware of how important systems like GPS are in our day-to-day lives, and when Iridium recently acquired Satelles, I pledged to step on the gas and expand market availability for this increasingly in demand solution. Today's announcement demonstrates that commitment."
