Vecow HEC-1000 Secures TEMPEST Level A for NATO Deployments

Vecow Co., Ltd., a team of global embedded experts, announced that its HEC-1000 Rugged Military Computer has been successfully deployed in a defense-grade solution that, through one of Vecow's strategic partners, has achieved TEMPEST Level A certification, the most stringent standard for electromagnetic emission security defined by NATO and adopted by government agencies worldwide.




Built for NATO-Aligned, Air-Gapped and Classified Environments
TEMPEST Level A certification ensures that computing systems prevent electromagnetic emissions that could be exploited for surveillance or information leakage—even at close-range. In the certified system, the HEC-1000 served as the core embedded platform, enabling the integrator to meet strict requirements for secure, air-gapped, and tactical communication infrastructure.




Ruggedized for Field Operations
Powered by Intel^® Core™ processors (14th Gen), the Vecow HEC-1000 features a fanless, IP66-rated enclosure, MIL-DTL-38999 connectors, and supports wide-temperature operation from -40°C to 65°C. It is compliant with MIL-STD-810G for shock, and vibration resistance and is designed with electromagnetic compatibility aligned to MIL-STD-461G standards—making it ideal for field deployments in harsh, mission-critical environments.

"This achievement demonstrates Vecow's commitment to secure, rugged embedded computing for defense, intelligence, and critical infrastructure sectors," said Judy Hu, Product Manager at Vecow's Embedded Systems & Platform Division. “HEC-1000 delivers uncompromising protection where failure or data leakage is not an option.”




TEMPEST-Ready Systems to Meet Rising Global Defense Needs
According to market research, the global defense cybersecurity market projected to reach USD 49.4 billion by 2028¹, driven by the increasing demand for TEMPEST-certified, air-gapped, and trusted-edge computing solutions. Vecow is proud to empower defense integrators with platforms that meet NATO-level security and environmental expectations.

1: Global Defense Cybersecurity Market Expected to Grow from USD 36.9 Billion in 2023 to USD 49.4 Billion by 2028, with a CAGR of 6%: U.S. Anticipated to Hold the Highest Market Share.
