Data Mediation for Defence.
Protect mission and support systems against AI-enabled attacks, connect data within and across security zones without systems integration, and bring AI to it under sovereign control, with no changes to systems that must keep running.
The challenge
Defence runs heritage platforms that cannot be paused, patched quickly or rebuilt: logistics, maintenance, personnel and mission support systems that hold decades of decisions and data.
Data sits in separate security zones, networks and systems, and connecting it through systems integration is slow, costly and adds risk. AI-enabled attacks raise the tempo, while AI adoption must happen inside sovereign boundaries, with evidence for every decision and nothing leaving the organisation’s control.
The answer
TomorrowX places a trusted Data Mediation point in front of the systems the organisation already runs. It acts on data in motion, across any protocol, with no changes to the applications. The same point protects what was built and connects it to what comes next, so protection and progress happen at the same time. For security and risk leaders, it clears items from the board’s technology audit list. For Chief AI Officers, it removes the constraints that hold AI back.
What Data Mediation clears for Defence
Protect · Cyber · For security and risk leaders
Clear the board’s technology audit list
On the list, and how it is cleared
- Mission systems that cannot be patched quicklyZero-day and Daybreak protection: Protected at the boundary while patches are prepared, with no change to the system.
- Heritage platforms exposed to AI-enabled attacksSovereign Data Dome: Protected in place, across any protocol, inside the perimeter.
- Systems accepting data they should notData Shaping: Only the data each system expects reaches it, enforced inline.
- AI agents acting outside the security boundaryData Mediation for NVIDIA OpenShell: Agents kept within policy, with evidence of every action.
Progress · AI · For Chief AI Officers
Remove the constraints on AI
The constraint, and how it is removed
- Data locked in separate security zones and networksData Connection: Data connection, not systems integration: lightweight Data Mediation points connect data within and across zones.
- Sovereign AI infrastructure fed through an open pipePrivate and sovereign AI: Data delivered into the AI infrastructure, down to the chips, with precision: only what each model needs.
- Models that cannot be proven safe to actAI evaluation on live data: Evaluated on live data in Listen Only before they are allowed to act.
- Mission applications that cannot be rewritten for AIWorkflow AI: Intelligence brought into existing applications, with no rewrite.
Who it is for
- Chief information security and chief risk officers
- Chief AI officers and AI programme leads
- Chief information and chief digital officers
- Capability and programme managers
Where it is needed
Wherever Defence needs to solve a problem in the data path. Data Mediation sits in front of any system, across any protocol, with no changes to the applications, so it can be applied wherever the problem is.
TomorrowX is open to testing it on new use cases. A Proof of Capability and Value shows within a week, on the organisation’s own data, whether it solves the problem.
