Research abstract

This Tactical Funding Increase (TACFI) effort supports the operational transition of Jericho Security’s generative AI-powered cybersecurity platform to defend against advanced phishing, deepfake, and AI-driven social engineering threats. The project focuses on expanding Jericho’s offensive and defensive machine learning capabilities, with multilingual spear phishing simulation (Spanish, French, Chinese Mandarin, Korean, Russian, and Farsi), deployment across IL4–IL6 infrastructure, and deepfake artifact detection and countermeasure development across tactical network environments (WiFi, 5G, Ethernet). Through co-evolutionary red/blue teaming, the system enhances real-time threat recognition, adaptive response, and adversarial training to prepare warfighters against emerging generative AI threats. Target DoD beneficiaries include the 16th Air Force, CYBERCOM, SOCOM, and other cyber-focused entities.
