WISeSat is a subsidiary of the global cybersecurity and IoT company WISeKey. It operates as a Swiss-based firm dedicated to providing secure satellite communications for the Internet of Things (IoT). The company's mission is to offer cost-effective, sovereign, and secure global connectivity for a wide range of applications, from smart agriculture and logistics to defense and national security.
WISeSat operates a growing constellation of low Earth orbit (LEO) nanosatellites. These satellites are designed to create a secure and resilient network for IoT devices, especially in remote or underserved areas. A key feature of WISeSat's service is its emphasis on security, incorporating advanced encryption and digital identity solutions from its parent company, WISeKey, and its affiliate, SEALSQ. This includes the integration of post-quantum cryptography to protect against future cyber threats, ensuring data integrity and confidentiality for its clients. The company offers its satellite capabilities in a "Satellite-as-a-Service" (SaaS) model, allowing clients to leverage the infrastructure for their specific needs.
WISeSat utilizes the Hedera network to enable secure and transparent machine-to-machine (M2M) transactions directly from its satellites. This is facilitated through the SEALCOIN platform, which uses Hedera's distributed ledger technology (DLT) for the secure exchange of tokens between IoT devices.

Starling Lab for Data Integrity is an academic research center that operates at the intersection of cryptography, decentralized web protocols, and the humanities. A joint initiative between the USC Shoah Foundation and Stanford University's Department of Electrical Engineering, the lab's mission is to develop and prototype tools and principles to establish trust in digital records. In an era of rampant misinformation and AI-generated content, Starling Lab is pioneering new methods to securely capture, store, and verify digital media.
The core of their work is the Starling Framework for Data Integrity, a comprehensive, open-source methodology for authenticating digital content. This framework is built on three pillars: Capture, which involves creating a chain of custody from the moment a photo or video is taken, Store, which uses decentralized networks like IPFS and Filecoin to securely distribute and preserve content, and Verify, which leverages immutable ledgers to register and audit the provenance of digital assets. This end-to-end approach has been applied in various real-world scenarios, from documenting the 78 days of the 2020 U.S. presidential transition with Reuters to preserving the USC Shoah Foundation's archive of 55,000 holocaust testimonies.
