About 2iC

2iC is a specialized integration platform built for defense and security environments where reliable communication between diverse systems is critical.

2iC is a specialized integration platform built for defense and security environments where reliable communication between diverse systems is critical. Designed to deliver digital interoperability in the battlespace, the software connects devices ranging from soldier-worn sensors to vehicle systems and drones, enabling real-time data exchange across land, sea, air, and cyber domains. Its Lean Services Architecture allows communication with extremely low bandwidth requirements, making it effective even on constrained tactical radio networks, while Decentralised Operating Procedures enable devices to interact automatically without relying on a central server, ensuring operations continue even if key nodes are lost. The platform includes the 2iC Designer, a low-code visual interface that allows operators to configure system behaviors using drag-and-drop logic rather than complex coding, while developers can use the 2iC SDK to build custom integrations with legacy military hardware. Built for Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited network conditions, 2iC uses store-and-forward capabilities to preserve data during outages and deliver it once connectivity returns, maintaining mission awareness in challenging environments.

Pros & Cons

Pros
  • Operates efficiently on tactical networks with extremely low bandwidth and constrained communication channels
  • Decentralized architecture eliminates single points of failure and improves overall network resilience
  • Hardware agnostic design allows deployment on existing equipment without requiring new ports or devices
Cons
  • Highly specialized capabilities may be unnecessary for standard office based business integration environments
  • Effective use requires adherence to LSA methodology and disciplined system architecture planning

Features

Key features

Lean Services Architecture (LSA)

A military-grade open standard invented by 2iC that enables seamless data exchange in low-bandwidth and high-latency tactical environments.

DDIL Communications Management

Guarantees two-way message delivery in Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited environments by storing and forwarding data automatically.

Decentralised Operating Procedures (DOP)

Automates complex interactions across distributed systems without needing a central server, allowing platforms to react instantly to mission events.

Cross-Domain Interoperability

Safely connects systems across different security classifications, enabling a unified operational picture across "trusted" and "untrusted" networks.

Low-Code Visual Designer

Empowers non-technical operators to graphically design and redeploy complex system behaviors and workflows in the field within minutes.

Additional features

2iC NODE

Provides a fully tested enterprise license software suite that implements the Lean Services Architecture for multi-node networks.

2iC CONNECT

Acts as the underlying software engine that physically connects disparate devices, sensors, and platforms across the battlespace.

2iC TRUST

Enables secure and flexible interoperability across different security trust domains to protect sensitive information during exchange.

2iC TOOLKIT

Offers a suite of productivity tools and services used to research, develop, and test modular and interoperable military systems.

2iC DESIGNER

Allows non-technical users to view, design, and manage system behaviors graphically through a user-friendly visual interface.

2iC MISSION CONTROL

Provides approved users with the ability to manage and update deployed configurations across the network remotely.

2iC SDK (Software Development Kit)

Gives developers the tools to build open interfaces and adaptors for almost any legacy or future device or platform.

Lean Services Protocol

An open communication standard that enables device interoperability using minimal bandwidth (down to 2 kbps). Dynamic Service Discovery: Allows systems to automatically discover and use available services as they enter the operational environment.

Automated Data Exchange

Automatically shares mission-critical information between commanders, operators, and equipment without manual intervention.
