+ GAI Solutions
VideoCAP
For over 40 years, Activu has supported thousands of command and control projects – most of these involving sophisticated video capture and analysis.
HyperCAP
Activu’s visability software supports cyber/IT operations for major enterprises by collecting alerts from a myriad applications (e.g ServiceNow, Splunk, Moog) and connecting distributed teams with a live Common Operational Picture to quickly respond to incidents.
TacticalCAP
Activu has underpinned some of the largest emergency operations projects in North America – including DC-HSEMA (DHS), Pentagon’s BOCC and the EOC for Arlington TX for emergency and transportation management.
+ GAI Capabilities
Accelerated Artificial Intelligence
Activu’s visability is integrating with sophisticated AI platforms to support a large range of advanced use cases – from object and vehicle identification to counter drone measures. Visability can even distribute live command and control data via VR headsets.
Big Data Analytics
Most, if not all, Big Data exercises achieve value through data distribution. Visability provides the most flexible platform for aggregating and securely distributing Big Data products globally.
Data Center Modernization
A principle goal of data center operation is reducing onsite human intervention. Activu’s visability complements GAI’s competency with a monitoring platform that combines IT/Cyber application layouts with real time alerting for remote incident management/resolution.
Cyber Security
Visability can trigger custom layouts from aggregated IT/Cyber platforms (ServiceNow, Splunk, Moog etc.) based on alerts consumed from these applications.
