Triaplex

What Triaplex does

Triaplex is a Maryland-based cybersecurity firm founded in 2020 that develops radio frequency (RF) protection platforms for the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). The company's core offering combines software-defined radio (SDR) hardware with multi-frequency analytics to provide persistent command-and-control, detection, and mitigation of RF hacking threats targeting warfighters, mission-critical systems, critical infrastructure, smart-city IoT devices, and wireless/cellular communications. Its product portfolio centers on RaptorRF and RangerRF — persistent detection and alerting systems that monitor harmful energy measurements across the EMS and provide on-demand data history — supplemented by the mAP capability, which enables signature diversity at the network edge to mitigate automated bot and scraping traffic.

The company serves three vertical segments: Defense & Intelligence Community (primary), Commercial, and Mobile. Distribution is conducted exclusively through enterprise direct sales, with prospective customers required to submit contact information to access product material — a gated, relationship-driven go-to-market model consistent with the classified or sensitive nature of the products. Triaplex generates revenue primarily through hardware sales of its RF platforms and is operationally based in Columbia and Hanover, Maryland, with an additional office in Reston, Virginia to serve National Capital Region and Intelligence Community clients.

In May 2025, Triaplex was acquired by VTG, a defense contractor backed by private equity firm A&M Capital, marking VTG's fourth acquisition under that ownership. The transaction is intended to extend VTG's cyber warfare and signals intelligence footprint within the Intelligence Community. Following the acquisition, Triaplex operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of VTG rather than as an independent company.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• RaptorRF A persistent detection and alerting system that connects every powered system communicating across the electromagnetic spectrum. It actively monitors harmful energy measurements and provides on-demand data history for customers in defense, commercial, and mobile sectors.
• RangerRF A persistent detection and alerting system that connects every powered system communicating across the electromagnetic spectrum. It actively monitors harmful energy measurements and provides on-demand data history for customers in defense, commercial, and mobile sectors.
• mAP An operational capability that enables signature diversity using reputable, foreign IP access points at the edge. Addresses the proliferation of automated bot and scraping networks that cause many IP types to be untrusted as an initial quality-gate check before granting access.

Direct peers

• HawkEye 360: HawkEye 360 operates a commercial satellite constellation for RF signals intelligence and geo-location, directly addressing electromagnetic spectrum situational awareness for defense and intelligence customers. Highly comparable mission (RF/EMS awareness) and customer base (IC/DoD).

Broad incumbents

• L3Harris Technologies: L3Harris is a major defense prime with deep portfolios in electronic warfare, RF communications, and spectrum management. Comparable as a buyer and competitor for IC cyber/RF programs of record, though its offerings span far beyond Triaplex's narrow EMS focus.
• CACI International: CACI provides signals intelligence, electronic warfare, and cyber solutions to the Intelligence Community and DoD. Comparable as a competitor and potential prime contractor absorbing RF/spectrum monitoring task orders.
• Parsons Corporation: Parsons delivers defense and intelligence solutions including cyber, EW, and critical infrastructure protection. Comparable as an IC-focused defense tech provider with overlapping RF/cyber and Federal services offerings.
• Peraton: Peraton provides cyber, signals intelligence, and electronic systems for the Intelligence Community. Comparable as a mid-tier IC prime that competes for the same RF/cyber task orders and absorbs similar specialist acquisitions.
• Sierra Nevada Corporation: Sierra Nevada operates across RF/EW, ISR, and cyber domains for DoD/IC. Comparable as a privately held defense specialist that competes for similar spectrum awareness and EW program work.
• Leidos: Leidos is a top-tier IC/DoD systems integrator with cyber, signals intelligence, and electronic warfare capabilities. Comparable as a competitor on RF/cyber programs and as a possible acquirer/integrator for specialist EMS platforms.

Emerging players

• Anduril Industries: Anduril builds software-defined RF sensing, EW, and autonomous systems for DoD, with a product philosophy closely aligned to Triaplex's SDR-based EMS awareness. Comparable as a well-capitalized emerging defense tech peer in spectrum awareness.
• Bastille: Bastille provides RF threat detection and wireless device tracking for enterprise and government security, addressing the same RF/EMS threat surface that Triaplex monitors. Comparable as a more commercial-leaning specialist in RF situational awareness.
• Epirus: Epirus builds software-defined RF/EW systems (including counter-electronics) for DoD, using a software-first architecture akin to Triaplex's SDR approach. Comparable as a venture-backed emerging player in software-defined spectrum effects and monitoring.
