AeroVironment and INTEGRITY Security Services Collaborate on Next-Gen V2X Platform

AeroVironment Inc has partnered with INTEGRITY Security Services to develop a next-generation V2X platform, offering ultra-low latency, high scalability, and enhanced security for connected vehicle applications. The partnership aims to integrate ISS's TrafficAuth-SCMSclient libraries into AeroVironment's LINX platform, potentially attracting new clients and increasing revenue in the rapidly growing connected vehicle sector.

AeroVironment Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV) has announced a strategic partnership with INTEGRITY Security Services (ISS) to develop a next-generation Network Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) platform called LINX (Low-latency Intelligent Network Exchange). The collaboration integrates ISS's TrafficAuth-SCMSclient libraries into AeroVironment's LINX platform, aiming to deliver enhanced security and performance capabilities for connected vehicle applications [1].

The partnership combines AeroVironment's edge computing expertise with ISS's client libraries to create a solution that enables vehicles to exchange real-time data about potential collisions, road hazards, and traffic conditions. Key features of the LINX platform include secure cellular/UU V2X interoperability, digital signature integration, and compliance with IEEE 1609.2 standards and U.S. Department of Transportation requirements [1].

The LINX platform's ability to deliver ultra-low latency and high scalability without requiring complex 5G multi-access edge computing infrastructure is particularly noteworthy. This architectural approach could significantly reduce deployment barriers for transportation agencies and fleet operators looking to implement connected vehicle solutions [1].

The technology partnership focuses heavily on security, incorporating digital signatures and certificate validation that comply with IEEE 1609.2 standards and U.S. Department of Transportation requirements. These security features are essential for the widespread adoption of V2X technology, where message integrity and authentication are paramount [1].

The LINX platform's emphasis on safety, mobility, and energy efficiency through real-time data exchange aligns with growing industry demands for intelligent transportation systems. By enabling early warnings about potential collisions, road hazards, and traffic conditions, the solution addresses practical safety applications that transportation authorities and vehicle manufacturers increasingly prioritize [1].

This partnership positions AeroVironment to expand its footprint in the transportation management systems market while leveraging its existing expertise in edge computing and AI-enabled technologies. As the V2X ecosystem continues to mature, this collaboration with ISS—described as "the world's first turnkey managed SCMS"—potentially strengthens AeroVironment's competitive positioning in this growing sector [1].

Both ISS and AeroVironment will be attending the ITS World Congress in Atlanta, Georgia from August 24-28, 2025, where they will showcase the LINX platform. The event provides an opportunity for industry stakeholders to learn more about the innovative solutions being developed in the connected vehicle sector [2].
