Charon Technologies’ engineers have a passion for solving the toughest problems across a variety of technical disciplines. We founded the company in 2012 to gather the most talented people we had worked with over the past 20 years. Charon gave them the resources, tools, and support needed to foster a culture of innovation.

The new company is a group with decades of collective experience working with customers who have unique requirements for special-purpose hardware used in the most unforgiving environments. Our creativity serves both commercial and government customers who require this kind of specialized technology.

The Charon development philosophy begins with small teams that tackle problems based on a set of top-level goals that allow us to consider new and unconventional approaches. This period of discovery on every effort rapidly targets the most promising concepts and is followed by a heads-down development effort to realize a prototype, test the systems, and get our products into our users’ hands in time to meet mission requirements.

The staff’s dedication to innovative development has led to successful development and deployment of a wide range of products including:

•	BluVault - a solution that allows users to place and receive phone calls via their cellular phone from their office desk phones within a secure area  
•	RAMPART - A hardware-based security Android tablet that can be customized to fit your exact needs
•	FlashZero – flash storage products (USB & SSD) that securely and permanently erase all data

Size, weight, power, and packaging are of paramount importance in everything we build. Our expertise in the following areas allows us to rapidly provide these solutions.

•	Specialized Electronic & Mechanical Design
•	Embedded & Application-Level Software
•	Reverse Engineering & Protocol Analysis
•	RF Signals Exploitation & Communications Systems
•	Security & Cryptography
•	Electronics & Mechanical Assembly
