Cynalytica International Selected as a Finalist in the US Army’s xTechGlobal AI Challenge

Cynalytica International is excited to announce that it has been selected as a finalist by the US Department of Defense (DoD) and its international stakeholders for the xTechGlobal Artificial Intelligence (AI) Challenge.

The xTechGlobal AI Challenge is the first international tri-service competition announced by the US Army in partnership with the US Air Force and US Navy. The competition aims to engage with eligible international small to medium enterprises in the US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Atlantic Area of Responsibility (AOR), including Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), across the broad spectrum of science and technology to identify capabilities that provide robust, AI-enabled capabilities to manage, integrate, and process disparate data/information sources for rapid decision making. The competition has a particular focus on AI/Machine learning (ML) algorithms and software tools that enable data analytics, especially in resource-constrained environments.

Cynalytica’s submission brings the power of AI anomaly detection to analog equipment in Industrial Control Systems (ICS), allowing operators of critical infrastructure to detect operational issues and cyberattacks at the lowest layers of their network that communicate via analog methods such as 4-20mA, HART, and 0-10Vdc.

The proposed solution represents a paradigm shift from the current status quo in industry where analog signals are not monitored, as it will allow operators of critical infrastructure to have clear visibility of their operational state.
