A breakthrough in AI-driven data management for defense and intelligence missions

Cubic Digital Intelligence (CDI), a leader in mission-ready software solutions for defense and intelligence, today announced the launch of Tethys, a powerful data management platform to deliver AI/ML-driven intelligence across complex and dynamic operational environments.

As the pace and complexity of mission demands grow, operators and analysts are inundated with volumes of unstructured data. Tethys simplifies and accelerates the data-to-decision timeline by intelligently ingesting, processing and distributing information, empowering mission-critical decisions at scale.

“Tethys answers the evolving challenge of turning raw data into mission-ready intelligence,” said Paul Sartorius, VP and General Manager of CDI. “It streamlines complex workflows, automates processing, and ensures data gets where and when it’s needed most.”

Kubernetes-based, Tethys is engineered for high scalability, fault tolerance, and intelligent resource orchestration. Defense and intelligence teams can seamlessly deploy and monitor AI/ML models, automate data workflows, and securely manage data movement across classified and unclassified domains.

Key platform capabilities include:

• AI/ML Model Management: Centrally deploy, track and refine models in a single, intuitive interface. 

• Flexible Data Movement: Ingest and distribute heterogeneous data inputs—such as ELINT, SIGINT, and OSINT—and real-time routing to mission systems or storage layers.

• Federated Data Access & Integration: Virtualize access to distributed data sources, enabling cross-domain insights without requiring data migration or schema standardization.

• Three-Click Access: Streamlined UX ensures users can locate/process/retrieve high-priority data assets in three interactions.

Whether cloud, on-premises or disconnected edge environments, Tethys provides unmatched flexibility and performance, maintaining operational advantage regardless of infrastructure or connectivity constraints.

Built for the Modern Mission Landscape

Tethys is platform-agnostic and topology-neutral, accommodating various data sources, models and mission needs. Its intuitive UI offers complete pipeline observability, and zero-downtime-update ensures continuous operations during critical missions.

From special operations to enterprise-level intelligence environments, Tethys empowers users:

• Faster insight generation
• Reduced cognitive load 
• Improved mission planning/execution 
• Stronger integration across allied forces and systems

Tethys is available now as part of CDI’s growing portfolio of defense software solutions, including TAKTICS, Unified Video+ and the HiPER Suite of GEOINT tools.

Alameda, California – May 14, 2025 – RGB Spectrum, a global leader in mission-critical video solutions for real-time decision support, announced a collaboration with Gemstar® Manufacturing, a specialist in rugged protective packaging, to deliver the IPX Flyaway Kit—a lightweight, fully integrated mobile command center designed for mission-critical deployments.

Tactical communications expert INVISIO is expanding the capability of its market-leading intercom system made for tailored user and radio communication. The expansion will deliver enhanced mobility, flexibility, interoperability and functionality for mission-critical users.

INVISIO Link™, due to ship in the next few months, provides wireless access to the INVISIO Intercom system by adding a body worn dongle and a base station to the equipment setup.

Two additional new products – the INVISIO Intercom Switch and the INVISIO Intercom Loudspeaker – further expands the intercom ecosystem and allow communication to larger user groups.

The intercom switch provides power and enables interconnectivity between multiple Link Stations to give wireless access to up to 16 users. In a wired setting, the switch can expand the number of wired users up to 27 via multiple intercoms. The loudspeaker can play audio to groups in settings such as a command center or vehicle.

Announced in 2024, INVISIO Link™ offers a range of benefits, including:

Tailored connectivity: Keeps users always connected, with wireless access for tailored user and radio communication and seamless integration of platform communication.

Unlimited mobility: No tangled cords enable complete mobility, eliminating current platform and proximity issues.

Seamless communication: Smooth transitions between mounted and dismounted, and wired and wireless, with auto-connect functionality for easy use.

Uncompromised quality: Uncompromised speech intelligibility along with strong connectivity, even in challenging environments.

Secure and lightweight: Unparalleled in size and weight, with a body-worn dongle weighing just 70g (2.5oz). System security through AES 256 encryption and low detectability thanks to user-adjustable transmitting power.

Mounted anywhere: Can be fixed to MOLLE webbing, stored in a bag or permanently installed. Leight weight of 270g (9.5oz) and small footprint of 186 x 100 x 30mm (7.3 x 3.9 x 1.2 in) ensures easy positioning for optimal transmission, with optional external antenna support for challenging RF installations.

Jacob Tranegaard, Director Intercom Product Management at INVISIO, said: “These advances ensure the INVISIO Intercom eco-system continues to excel in flexible, tailored wireless communication that offers a whole range of use cases, from military vehicles to maritime uses and command post communications, and non-military scenarios.

INVISIO Link™ gives users more freedom and mobility than ever, along with uncompromised speech intelligibility, secure encryption and a small footprint. The switch and the loudspeaker further expand INVISIO’s capability to ensure our systems remain market-leading in the world of tactical communications.”
