[MF] The Riddle of the Sphinx

MOOF!

Prompt

Taldryan Intelligence agencies have pinpointed the headquarters of the organization which is perpetrating covert slicing attacks against our secured facilities in the Kr’Tal system. While no data has yet been compromised, our specialists assure us it is only a matter of time. Despite the fact that we know that Sphinxian Satellite Technologies is behind the attacks, we only have a name. Your mission is to locate any identifying features of their organization, and report back to Taldryan command.

I could not find the original source online nor was it in my Larousse Encyclopedia of Mythology.
The abbreviation for Sphinxian Satellite Technologies is in there twice since companies like to hide things in their logos.
