DEFCON AI, an insights company building a next-generation modeling, simulation, and analysis (MS&A) toolset for the modern military environment, today announced that the prototype of its MS&A tool ARTIV™ has deployed to DoD Impact Level 6 (IL6), via Second Front (2F), a public-benefit software company focused on facilitating the delivery of mission-critical software solutions. DEFCON AI is one of the first companies to launch its software on the IL6 production environment through Game Warden® – 2F’s DevSecOps Platform, allowing data processing and planning at the Secret level.

Through 2F’s Game Warden, DEFCON AI leverages security controls and accreditation compliance to enable Department of Defense customers to use ARTIV to carry out contested mobility planning in the classified environment.

“Following the successful deployment of our ARTIV prototype to DoD IL5 through Game Warden, which effectively demonstrated our ability to keep sensitive data safe, this deployment at IL6 represents the natural progression of our important mission,” said retired General Paul Selva, DEFCON AI’s Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer. “Our deployment to IL6 means that planners can now operate ARTIV securely in a Secret environment while training for or executing real-world scenarios and enhancing military readiness and mobility.”

“This is a monumental achievement that did not come easy,” said DEFCON AI CEO Yisroel Brumer. “But at DEFCON AI, we are not deterred by things that are hard. Instead, we are guided by our sense of purpose, determination, and willingness to collaborate to achieve our goals. I am proud to work with such an adept and dedicated team whose laudable efforts helped us to realize this extraordinary deployment.”

DEFCON AI’s ARTIV gives military personnel the opportunity to test operational logistics and transportation concepts for the purpose of predicting and planning around disruptions and ensuring resources can be moved without interruption. The company’s deployment to GovCloud allows a wider variety of DoD and Intelligence Community agencies to plan and analyze military responses to supply chain and mobility network disruptions in a distributed operations environment.

“Enabling DEFCON AI’s ARTIV deployment on IL6 represents the commitment we have to our customers as they look to assist their government partners who operate in some of the most classified spaces,” said TJ Rowe, 2F’s Chief Revenue Officer. “As such, we are dedicated to continuously developing our Game Warden offerings in alignment with changing technological and security guidelines. DEFCON AI’s offerings have monumentally evolved the MS&A military ecosystem and we are thrilled to be their partner in achieving this at the highest level.”
