Defence, safety and security
Safety cannot be taken for granted. That is why we use our knowledge and technology to create innovations for people who are committed to our peace and security. Whether it concerns defense, police, justice and security, business or others. We are the allies of military and security professionals.
Physical and digital security
Safety is about experience and reality. Physical and digital. The threat is changing and is no longer tied to national borders. That is why it is important that we provide our partners with better guidance and preparation than anywhere else in the world.
And from equipment that is always the most modern. Our field of activity moves between land, sea and air. Between cyber and space. We are pushing boundaries worldwide. With science and innovation on the front line. That is why we focus on four areas:
- Operations and human factors
- Information and sensor systems
- National safety
- Protection, munitions and weapons
Expertise groups
- Acoustics and sonar
- Chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear protection
- Electronic defence
- Energetic materials
- Explosions, ballistics and protection
- Human behaviour and organisational innovation
- Human machine teaming
- Human performance
- Intelligent autonomous systems
- Intelligent imaging
- Military operations
- Modelling, simulation and gaming
- Networked organisations
- Radar technology
- Weapon systems

Successful Ground Test Shows Potential for Satellite Identification
It’s getting awfully crowded in space. Every year, businesses and organisations send an increasing number of new satellites into orbit, and many of them cannot be identified after they’re launched. Researchers at TNO wondered if there’s something we can do to address the challenge. And experts from TNO have successfully tested a viable solution. We spoke to team member Fabrizio Silvestri, Optical System Engineer, to find out more.
Earlier detection of hypersonic missiles with TNO technology means more time for interception
TNO is active in all phases, ranging from novel interceptors and new concepts for Integrated Air and Missile Defense to advanced sensor solutions. Novel sensor technology is necessary as a successful kill-chain will push current radar systems to its limits.
First overview of cyberattack techniques by AI against AI
All international trend reports view Artificial Intelligence as the most important disruptive technology of the coming years. Where a new technology develops, new vulnerabilities also arise. And AI is no exception.
The PQC Migration Handbook
Commissioned by the AIVD, TNO has compiled a handbook together with CWI. This handbook offers organisations advice and concrete steps to mitigate the risk of quantum computers to cryptography.
Desdemona: The ultimate motion simulator
The multi-purpose Desdemona simulator recently installed at TNO will definitely push the limits of movement simulation.
