From concepts to technical decisions.

Cybersecurity

Start Zero Trust with one access workflow

Choose one high-value workflow, such as vendor access to a maintenance console. Map the users, devices, and required resources. Test whether access can be scoped to a session and revoked when the job ends. Track provisioning time and exception counts before expanding.

Big Data & AI

Test a document assistant with hard questions

Build a set of real questions with reference answers. Include stale documents, ambiguous queries, and cases where the answer is absent. Score answer accuracy, citation relevance, and the system’s ability to express uncertainty. Record index and document versions for reproducibility.

Biometric technology

What should a face verification pilot measure?

Test one-to-one verification on devices and in lighting representative of deployment. Track false accepts and false rejects at the same decision threshold. Define an alternative verification path and measure how often people need it.

Robotics, drones & edge

Design drone data flows for intermittent connectivity

Separate data needed for local control from telemetry sent to a central system. In simulation, disconnect the link and check whether logging continues, how the backlog is replayed, and how duplicates are handled. Use those results to decide what runs on-device and what can be transferred after the mission.
