Description

Vigilant Cyber Systems, Inc. (VCS) proposes to design and develop its Automated Mission Readiness Assessment of Shipboard Systems (AMRASS) tool to provide a centralized, automated fault monitoring system cable of providing a holistic view of current faults across various ship systems and enabling fault management, response, and increased understanding of overall mission readiness. Vigilant has significant experience in the fields of Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML), operational technology (OT) cybersecurity, dashboard development, and sensor data aggregation with a combined 30 years-experience. Our AMRASS tool will collect and integrate fault and sensor data from all ship control systems and convert it into a human-readable and intuitive user experience (UX) for real time watchstander review of automated analyses and exportation for later review. An AI/ML algorithm will process all fault and sensor data inputs and provide an assessment of individual ship systems and overall ship health and mission readiness. This will reduce the burden on the crew and provide increased situational awareness, while also informing maintenance and logistical requirements.
