BUILT BY OPERATORS

TRUSTED BY ELITE UNITS

We created Aware Defense to solve the problem we lived with — gear that's uncomfortable, non-compliant, and gets tossed mid-mission

AWARE BEGAN IN THE FIELD

Aware Defense was founded by a team of U.S. military veterans, engineers, and field medics who knew the pain points firsthand.

What started as a mission to make better ear protection has grown into a platform for protection, performance, and passive sensing.

OUR OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Humans are more important than hardware

FIT COMES FIRST

If it's not worn, it doesn't work. Comfort drives compliance in the field.

communication

Protection shouldn't block communication. Clear comms save lives.

scalability

Everything we build must deploy at scale across diverse operations.

future ready

Our platform evolves with the mission and emerging technologies.

TRUSTED BY ELITE UNITS

"We operate in some of the harshest conditions in the world. Aware's EarDefenders held up to salt, sand, and sustained flight hours. The passive protection is solid, and our aircrew say they actually want to wear them. These aren't just another issued item—they're mission-critical."
