Camden, New Jersey — 29 May 2025: L3Harris Technologies has secured a U.S. government contract to develop a next-generation security processor designed to protect communication systems across military and intelligence domains. The processor will serve as a critical upgrade to global communications infrastructure, with particular emphasis on safeguarding advanced weapons systems against emerging cyber threats.
The initiative forms part of the U.S. government’s broader push to fortify national defence systems and secure sensitive communication channels amid increasingly complex and contested operational environments.
“This award builds on L3Harris’ 30-year legacy of developing and producing secure communication hardware infrastructure solutions for the U.S. and our international partners,” said Nino DiCosmo, President, Maritime, L3Harris. “Our technology ensures the highest levels of security, resiliency, performance and lethality for weapons systems when used in highly contested operations.”
L3Harris will draw on its experienced multi-disciplinary engineering teams and deep security processing expertise to develop and deliver advanced cryptographic and communications capabilities. The resulting technology will support both military and intelligence professionals worldwide, reinforcing command-and-control integrity across space, air, land, sea and cyber domains.
