Hammes is highly recognized within the Defense and IC community for his innate ability to think outside the box to direct a broad range of IT innovations.
Recently, Hammes oversaw the successful rollout of IW’s GRAYPATH (GP), the next-generation solution for expeditionary communications. Through its patented IP Spread Spectrum technology, GP leverages the cloud to randomize and distribute message packets through the simultaneous use of multiple transport paths and encrypted channels. GP algorithms optimize throughput by continuously sensing and adjusting the message flow according to channel availability and bandwidth capacity creating a smoother connection even for HD video transmissions. As a result, GP dramatically lowers the risk of detection and interception and is nearly impervious to disruption.
Hammes has earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from Excelsior College and is completing his graduate studies at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill – Kenon Flagler Business School.
