This document provides information about QinetiQ's Secured Navigation (SecNav) capabilities. It summarizes QinetiQ as a provider of solutions that allow users to reliably receive and trust positioning, navigation and timing information in demanding environments where that information is mission-critical. It mentions capabilities like high accuracy in difficult environments, resilience to interference, robustness to use multiple constellations/frequencies/services, and high dynamics. It also notes QinetiQ's broad skills in GNSS, security and engineering that allow it to provide consulting, research and development, and customized solutions in addition to products.
