BigBear.ai, a leading provider of AI-powered decision intelligence solutions for defense and national security, announced a collaboration with Proof Labs Inc to deliver an advanced cyber resiliency solution for the Department of the Air Force (DAF). Proof Labs Inc, as the prime contractor, was awarded the AFWERX Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Direct-to-Phase II contract to develop the Cyber Resilient On-Orbit (CROO) solution, with BigBear.ai supporting as a sub-contractor.

The CROO solution will incorporate BigBear.ai’s SpaceCREST technology, a comprehensive digital twin capability that serves as a real-time monitor and alerting system of a satellite network’s cyber infrastructure. This project aims to enhance the security of the U.S. Air Force (USAF) and the U.S. Space Force (USSF) on-orbit assets through Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) cyber intrusion detection.

“Proof Labs is excited to collaborate with BigBear.ai to develop and deliver an advanced intrusion detection system utilizing artificial intelligence for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Space Cyber Resiliency program,” said Ricardo Aguilar, Co-Founder & CEO of Proof Labs Inc. “This work combines Proof Labs‘ innovation with BigBear.ai’s expertise in AI-driven analytics to enhance the cybersecurity of critical space assets. The integration of innovative technologies will support USAF’s and USSF’s mission to maintain resilient and secure space capabilities.”

BigBear.ai will train the CROO’s AI/ML against a wide range of simulated cyberattacks, covering well-established tactics and procedures. The CROO solution will analyze, evaluate, and classify the behavior of USSF satellite systems in normal operation, versus while under the influence of simulated cyberattacks.

BigBear.ai will then integrate these advanced machine learning algorithms for continuous live monitoring and real-time anomaly and intrusion detection. These algorithms will monitor select USSF space assets’ cyber environments to detect and alert USSF of potential threats in real-time.

“This project represents a significant step forward in safeguarding our nation’s space infrastructure,” said Robert Wedertz, Senior Vice President, Federal at BigBear.ai. “BigBear.ai’s SpaceCREST digital twin capability, further enhanced by custom machine learning and anomaly detection gained through this project, will provide DAF a powerful tool to help combat real-time cyber threats and ensure the resilience of our nation’s critical space assets.”
