GPS Firewall Protection
The SyncServer® NTP/PTP network time server with BlueSky™ technology is GPS firewall technology at its best. BlueSky™ detects GPS jamming and spoofing related anomalies in real time to protect essential time and frequency outputs. Alarms are triggered when unexpected changes are detected and trust is compromised. Live sky measurements and graphical tools help set meaningful alarms and analyze events.

GPS Firewall video transcript: Modern networks require accurate, secure, and reliable time services. The security hardened SyncServer® Network Time Server with BlueSky™ technology delivers exact hardware-based time and frequency with robust gnss jamming and spoofing protection. These time servers offer easy to use features for Reliable Network time services to meet the needs of mission critical networks and business operations today and and into the future. The sync server Blue Sky technology detects GPS jamming and spoofing related anomalies in real time to protect essential time and frequency outputs. The jamming and spoofing detectors continuously monitor local GPS constellation health and analyze GPS and local RF signal Integrity to assure precise timing. The Blue Sky software option also provides the graphical tools to easily characterize the local GPS environment to set meaningful alarm thresholds and subsequent syn server behaviors.
These tools include:
- antenna position validation
- at a glance dashboard of gnss variables
- historical charts
To ensure accurate and precise time proper gnss antenna placement verified with Liv Sky satellite maps assure that gnss satellites are in view. Overall good antenna placement is verified with cumulative site survey charts. These charts are useful to determine if an adequate view of the sky is available for normal gnss operations or if parts of the sky might be obscured by local surroundings. The BlueSky technology monitors satellite tracking, the presence of any spoofing, the integrity of the data in the GPS signal, and the general RF activity in the local area.
A 30-day look back of measurement data helps identify the proper alarm threshold for what is not normal for the local GNSS environment. This data is also useful to help correlate jamming or spoofing events to possible known changes in the local RF environment.
