WB GROUP is the only Polish company that is part of an international consortium implementing the Artificial Intelligence Deployable Agent project. The AIDA target is to develop possible scenarios and safeguards that would prevent cyberattacks on solutions based on artificial intelligence. WB GROUP brings unmatched experience in Poland in the development of military AI systems.
WB Electronics, also part of the consortium, is the only Polish company involved in AIDA, which is funded by the European Defense Fund. The project seeks to create effective responses to the threats faced by systems based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, including autonomous or semi-autonomous antagonistic attacks.
The use of artificial intelligence to defend against attacks spans multiple domains: land, air, sea, space, and cyber. As the leading company of WB GROUP, WB Electronics will will oversee the defense component in the land domain. The polish company will focus on developing operational scenarios that integrate systems to enhance situational awareness, working in conjunction with military manned, unmanned, mobile, and stationary platforms.
WB GROUP’s solutions will be tested at every stage: from preparation and response to drawing conclusions. This approach ensures that system managers and decision-makers receive the crucial support needed in managing cyber incidents..
The solutions developed by the consortium will be tested prior to implementation using the EYEQ Tactical Battlefield Reconnaissance System. Equipped with artificial intelligence algorithms, this tool supports dynamic targeting and enhances situational awareness on the battlefield.
The EYEQ system, awarded the Kielce Defence Expo President’s Award during this year’s International Defence Industry Exhibition, will serve as a mechanism for certifying the effectiveness of the cyber defense system developed in the AIDA project. This Polish solution will not only contribute to the development of tools to counter similar attacks but also strengthen its own resilience to emerging threats.
In the long term, the results of the Artificial Intelligence Deployable Agent project can be used to strengthen the defense potential of computer networks in European Union countries. Solutions proven in the land domain will also increase security outside the military sector, particularly in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
The AIDA project is set to officially begin at the end of 2024. With a planned budget covering three and a half years of work, the project will involve twenty-four companies and research institutions from fourteen European countries.
