Zighra Secures Canadian Coast Guard Contract to Pilot Explainable AI Solution for Enhanced Cybersecurity

Zighra has been awarded a pilot contract with the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) to test its Explainable AI cybersecurity solution, Zighra DeepSense. The testing will take place at ports across the Canadian coast, where enhancing Canada’s cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly vital component of its maritime security initiatives. This initiative is part of the Innovative Solutions Canada Testing Stream project.

Government departments, including the Coast Guard, face challenges that demand more intelligent and autonomous systems that can perceive, learn, and make decisions, both independently and in collaboration with humans. To do this, users must be able to understand and trust how the AI makes decisions. In contrast to the opaque nature of “black box” AI networks and deep learning systems, explainable AI systems are designed for auditable traceability, verification, and validation, ensuring transparency and accountability in AI-driven processes.

Zighra’s Explainable AI solution works intelligently and transparently with analysts and leaders to help in early identification, assessment, response to threats, and better understand adversaries. Thereby significantly improving tactical decision making and maritime security.

The Canadian Coast Guard’s maritime cybersecurity operations require explainable systems to better safeguard its processes, personnel, and assets against rapidly evolving and ever-increasing threats. Piloting Zighra DeepSense is a significant step forward in the Coast Guard’s commitment to harnessing the power of artificial intelligence while maintaining the highest levels of trust and accountability.
