As government agencies and defense organizations push operations to the tactical edge, the need for resilient, secure, and decentralized data systems has never been more urgent. Ditto offers a groundbreaking Edge Sync platform that allows mobile and edge devices to function with full fidelity and sync in disconnected, denied, intermittent, and limited (DDIL) environments. By enabling peer-to-peer (P2P) synchronization and local mesh networking, Ditto ensures that data remains accessible and consistent without relying on centralized servers, Wi-Fi, or constant cloud connectivity.
Built from the ground up specifically for edge use cases, Ditto’s software synchronizes critical data between devices using any available transport - Bluetooth, peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, MANET radios, GoTenna, and SATCOM links. Multi-hop relays extend the reach of communications, enabling collaboration across dynamic operational theaters. This allows teams to maintain situational awareness and make mission-critical decisions even when network infrastructure is compromised or unavailable.
Ditto’s real-time synchronization is powered by CRDTs (Conflict-free Replicated Data Types), ensuring that all updates are merged automatically and reliably across the network, even after periods of complete disconnection. Users can even backfill full mission history and rapidly onboard new units by simply scanning a QR code.
In the public sector, Ditto is already transforming field operations through its ATAK Edge Sync Plugin, an official plugin to Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK). It allows operators to share mission data, map annotations, and personnel locations in real time without internet or centralized infrastructure such as a TAK server.
From tactical command centers to field-deployed teams, Ditto empowers public sector organizations to build fast, secure, and autonomous systems that thrive in the most demanding environments. Government stakeholders across the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, and local public safety entities trust Ditto to deliver always-on synchronization, even without traditional infrastructure, bringing reliability and speed to the front lines of public service.
