In a world reliant on satellite technology, securing space-based infrastructure is essential to building a safer global community. Globals Inc., founded in Bengaluru, India, specialises in protecting satellites from escalating cyber threats. Their recent expansion to The Hague, the city renowned for its commitment to innovation, peace, and justice, opens new opportunities to strengthen the space economy.
The critical need for satellite cybersecurity
Satellites are integral to modern life, underpinning services such as navigation, communication, environmental monitoring, and power grid management. As these systems become more embedded in critical infrastructure, they face growing exposure to cyber threats. Unlike traditional IT networks, satellite systems operate across a complex ecosystem of ground stations, uplinks, and downlinks—each a potential entry point for attackers.
A successful cyberattack on a satellite could disrupt essential services, compromise sensitive data, and pose risks to public safety. As such, securing satellite infrastructure is no longer optional; it is a global security priority in an increasingly interconnected world.
Globals Inc.’s approach
Globals Inc. addresses these vulnerabilities through a comprehensive cybersecurity framework tailored to satellite environments. Their solutions include advanced threat detection, real-time monitoring, and rapid incident response. The company also offers physical protection systems to prevent collisions between satellites—safeguarding not only data but also hardware assets in space.
These measures are particularly vital in regions where satellite technology supports critical sectors such as defence and aerospace, oil and gas, manufacturing, and logistics. In the Pacific Islands and Africa, Globals ensures connectivity through protected satellite-based internet. In Europe and North America, they help secure GPS networks and autonomous transport systems. In South America and South Asia, the company contributes to earth observation, disaster response, and climate monitoring.
Innovation through infrastructure
At the heart of Globals Inc.’s operations is a 24/7 Cyber Command Centre. This facility provides continuous security monitoring and rapid response capabilities for satellite operators worldwide. The company’s managed security services support organisations in maintaining secure satellite operations across sectors like energy, finance, and transport.
Additional solutions include Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) to uncover system weaknesses, and predictive collision-avoidance systems powered by real-time analytics—essential in an era of increasingly crowded orbital paths.
New office in The Hague
Globals Inc.’s expansion to The Hague aligns with the city’s ambition to be at the forefront of secure and sustainable technological advancement. Their entry into the Dutch cybersecurity ecosystem was supported by the Digital Soft Landing programme in September 2023. As part of this initiative, former Dutch Prime Minister and current NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte travelled to India to identify innovative companies suited to the Dutch innovation landscape. This collaboration not only reinforces bilateral ties between The Hague and Bengaluru but also enhances Europe’s resilience in the face of global cyber threats.
About Globals Inc.
Globals Inc. was founded by Suhas Gopinath, one of the world’s youngest CEOs. His commitment to leveraging technology for social impact has driven the firm’s transformation from a Bengaluru start-up into a global leader in satellite protection. Plans are now underway to establish a Cybersecurity R&D Centre in The Hague, deepening the company’s investment in Dutch talent, research, and innovation.
“The Hague, known as the city of peace and justice, provides a highly conducive ecosystem for startups and companies in cybersecurity. This makes it the perfect location for us to establish our base in the Netherlands. From here, we can enhance our offerings and cater more effectively to our clients, while benefiting from the collaborative and innovation driven environment.”
