| GPS WORLD FREE WEBINAR: Health Monitoring of PNT Systems  |  | EVENT DESCRIPTION
PNT Monitoring to Safeguard Critical Infrastructure
Date: Thursday, September 17, 2020
Time: 1:00 p.m. Eastern / 10:00 a.m. Pacific
Duration: 60 minutes Recent webinars have focused on a variety of proven, resilient technologies to combat GNSS and PNT vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure. In this webinar, we will focus on how PNT Monitoring can further protect critical systems from these vulnerabilities through continuous monitoring and improvement.
Similar to cybersecurity for network systems, effective GNSS and PNT protection involves identifying and monitoring weak entry points, knowing where and when an intrusion occurs, and providing data about new threats to help strengthen the system going forward. Its value applies across all critical infrastructure sectors such as telecom, power grids, datacenters, etc. Protecting critical infrastructure is now a national priority for the US and Allied Countries. Please join us for this informative discussion about GNSS and PNT monitoring.
