What Happened: Defense-focused technology company Kratos announced that its OpenEdge 2500 integration-ready digitizer has been designated as DIFI compliant.

&#8220;Kratos continues to lead the industry in building interoperable, standards-based products that bring satellite networks into the mainstream of global communications infrastructure,&#8221; said&nbsp;Kevin Tobias, director of product management at Kratos.
&#8220;Kratos is the first and only company delivering a commercially available, software-defined and orchestrated satellite ground system platform.
