Digital security systems are under constant pressure. As encryption becomes more sophisticated, so do the methods used to bypass it. Software-based protection, no matter...

Anonymous are stepping up their game in the fight against ISIS, if latest claim by the hacktivist collective is to be believed. It has now...

Who thought that to ensure the security of casinos, they would choose autonomous robots? Well, casinos across the US are beginning to utilize autonomous...

For years the United States has been one of the leading countries in the field of using armed drones and dedicated a lot of...

Wearable sensors need to remain soft and conductive as the body moves, but cold weather presents a basic materials problem. Many flexible sensors use...

As unmanned aircraft become central to modern combat, another challenge is emerging: what happens after a drone goes down. Crashed systems can contain sensitive...

On modern battlefields, artillery and mortar fire can strike within seconds of launch. Detecting the origin of gunfire quickly is critical for both force...

Modern main battle tanks were designed to defeat threats coming from the front and sides. Today, that assumption no longer holds. Inexpensive first-person-view drones...

Software-defined networks (SDNs) have become a cornerstone of modern data centers, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise environments. By separating the control layer from the traffic-forwarding...

Autonomous maritime systems are advancing faster than the frameworks designed to prove they are safe. Unmanned surface vessels increasingly rely on AI-based perception to...

One of the biggest concerns surrounding advanced artificial intelligence is no longer whether it can generate text or write code, but whether it can...

If you are a manager of a company, you should know that it is already under attack. Though not your fault, this is certainly...

One of the biggest obstacles to deploying very small autonomous robots is navigation. As machines shrink, the hardware required to determine position and direction...

Long-range precision weapons have become increasingly important for militaries seeking to strike targets while keeping launch platforms outside heavily defended areas. The challenge is...

Detecting unauthorized drones around airports, power plants, stadiums and other sensitive locations usually requires dedicated radars, radio-frequency sensors or cameras. Deploying enough of those...

Robots are increasingly being used for inspections, emergency response, and field operations in locations that are difficult or dangerous for people to reach. However,...

Artificial intelligence models increasingly serve as the foundation for hundreds of products, from chatbots and coding assistants to enterprise software and security tools. As...

Rescue helicopters operating in contested environments face a growing threat from infrared-guided missiles. While onboard warning systems can alert crews to incoming threats, they...

Amphibious operations remain one of the more complex military challenges. Moving troops and equipment from ship to shore requires platforms that can operate reliably...

Operating aircraft over heavily defended territory has become increasingly difficult as air-defense systems grow more capable and networked. Traditional surveillance platforms struggle to remain...

Fires move fast, and in smoke-filled homes visibility drops to near zero within minutes. Firefighters entering these environments are trained to search for people...

Modern military operations face a growing mismatch between threats and available strike options. High-end precision weapons deliver accuracy and range, but they are expensive,...
