Why Espanaro

Practical capability for complex, controlled environments

Espanaro builds sovereign software for defence, national security and critical national infrastructure. Our solutions address the questions operators ask most: what is happening, who can see it, what should we do, and how do our systems talk to each other.

UK sovereign, UK owned

Veteran owned and engineered in the UK, with direct access to the solution and delivery team.

Open and modular

Deploy only what you need and expand over time, through open interfaces.

Built to integrate

Connect new capability to existing sensors, systems and data, without wholesale replacement.

Operator-first

Designed around operator decisions and operational outcomes, not the technology trend.

How the solutions fit together

Five layers, each usable on its own

Every solution runs standalone. Used together, they cover the path from raw sensor data to a governed operational decision, with Consilium as the command layer on top. Start with the solution that solves the most urgent problem. Because each layer uses open interfaces, others can be added later without replacing what is already in place.

Decision advantage

The right information, to the right person or system, at the right time, for the right reason

Data is not the advantage. Information is. Used together, the solutions decide what matters, who needs it, how it travels and at what protection level, and move no more than the recipient needs.

Right information

Information, not data

Only what the recipient needs, in the smallest useful form, not the whole feed or library.

ByteHarbour
Right recipient

Person or system

People, roles and systems are treated alike, and entitled from their attributes.

Harbour Guard
Right time

When it matters

Operational events trigger delivery as they happen, and delivery stops when relevance ends.

Pulse SentinelCognisight
Right reason

Policy and audit

Mission policy decides why it moves, and every release is recorded.

Consilium

From event to delivery

1

Cognisight · Pulse Sentinel · WayForge

A detection, a sensor fault or a vehicle state change.

2

Consilium

Mission policy and playbooks choose the response.

Entitle

Harbour Guard

Which people, roles and systems are entitled, from their attributes.

4

Seal

ByteHarbour

A labelled release per recipient, at the DCS level required.

5

Route

Consilium

Policy picks the bearer and asks for more bandwidth if needed.

6

Deliver

Person or system

The alert, stream or document reaches only who needs it, with an audit trail.

Operations driving network policy

Operational triggers can drive technical network policy

Consilium policies work with ByteHarbour to decide which data goes over which bearer, at which DCS level, and how much bandwidth the bearer needs. A confirmed Cognisight detection, for example, can request more bandwidth for the link carrying the responders' feed, then release it when the event closes.

InformationWho receives itDCS handlingBearer and bandwidth
Weapon detection alert: snapshot and locationOn-shift ops team and response unitsScoped to each recipient, highest handling for the siteAny permitted bearer. Small payload, sent first.
Live camera feed to respondersNamed response units, for the duration of the eventSealed stream. Access ends when the event closes.Wideband bearer. Bandwidth raised on the trigger, released at close.

Use cases

Where the solutions work together

Every scenario runs the same decision-advantage flow: an event, a policy decision, an entitlement check, a sealed release and delivery over the right bearer. Each can start with a single solution and grow as needs change.

Secure site operations

See, correlate and respond across a site

A detection reaches the on-shift team and response units as a sealed, scoped alert, not as standing access to every feed. Policy decides the route, and can ask for more bandwidth while the event is live.

CognisightPulse SentinelConsilium
Uncrewed-systems missions

Plan, task and supervise platforms

Missions and road networks are planned in one workflow, and vehicles are driven with live telemetry and camera feeds. Mission events can set the policy for the vehicle link.

WayForgeConsiliumCognisight
Controlled data sharing

Share what you must, keep control

Documents, camera feeds and chat carry classification labels. Each release is made per recipient, at the DCS level required, and decided against clearance and recorded.

ByteHarbourHarbour GuardConsilium
Sensor assurance

Trust the sensors you rely on

A silent or degraded sensor raises an alert to the right owner, and policy decides how the report travels. Sensors can enrol and sync across a mesh. RibbonFlow is at early access.
