Definition

Share of relevant new GNSS navigation and timing equipment procured for critical infrastructure in the EU that supports authenticated GNSS signals (e.g. Galileo OSNMA). Definitions of critical infrastructure, relevant equipment and authentication support are pending (see clarifications).

Critical infrastructure: Pending: e.g. critical entities under the EU Critical Entities Resilience Directive (energy, transport, telecoms, finance).
Navigation equipment: Pending: GNSS receivers used for positioning, navigation or timing in critical operations.
Authentication support: Pending: receiver able to process and validate OSNMA (or equivalent) authentication.
Procurement vs installation vs operational use: Pending: the working definition uses procurement.

Historical development

Insufficient historical data

Fewer than two sourced observations exist for a single, consistently defined series. A chart will appear once further reporting periods are recorded. No values are interpolated.

Observation log

All recorded values, including supplied, comparison and contextual figures. History is append-only; values are never overwritten.

Not yet measured

No observations have been recorded for this KPI. No value is displayed rather than an invented one.

Method

Unit: % of new relevant equipment procured
Calculation: Relevant new equipment procured with authenticated-GNSS support ÷ all relevant new navigation equipment procured in the period × 100.
Numerator: Relevant new equipment procured with authenticated-GNSS support
Denominator: All relevant new navigation equipment procured for critical infrastructure
Geographic scope: EU Member States (critical entities)
Update frequency: To be defined
Data status: Not measured
Confidence: Low

Validation review

Definition: No
Baseline verified: No
Target justified: No
Method documented: No
Source quality: Low

Notes: Equipment scope, authentication support and denominator undefined; no data source identified.

Limitations and caveats

No dataset on procurement of authenticated-GNSS-capable equipment by critical infrastructure operators has been identified. OSNMA authenticates Galileo navigation message data: it makes spoofing significantly harder and improves detection, but does not prevent spoofing and does not protect against jamming.

Outstanding questions

Define critical infrastructure, relevant equipment and authentication support.
Decide whether the KPI measures procurement, installation or operational use.
Identify a data source (procurement surveys, market data or national reporting).

Context (not KPI values)

OSNMA service status
EUSPA announced the official launch of the Galileo OSNMA service on 24 July 2025.
