Tampa tech firm builds a communications network for drones
January 24, 2020 - Syniverse and AiRXOS are working together to protect the skies by providing a communications infrastructure that manages drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles operating at low altitudes. Critical data, notifications, photos and HD video will be transmitted over the network with protection from cyberattacks, a news release said. The Syniverse network runs completely separate from the public internet, so the information is invisible to hackers, said Mike O’Brien, group vice president at Syniverse, said. The Syniverse and AiRXOS partnership is also part of the Syniverse Innovation Lab, a demonstration, development and testing center at Syniverse's Tampa headquarters.
