White paper: FIGHT: A FedRAMP-Compliant AI Threat Detection Platform

Executive Summary

In an era of evolving security threats, rapid and intelligent response systems are critical for public safety. FIGHT (Federated Intelligent Guard for Homeland Threats) is a next-generation, FedRAMP-compliant AI platform that allows federal agencies and security teams to deploy site-specific AI training and real-time threat detection capabilities. Using advanced computer vision, digital twins, and real-time monitoring, FIGHT enables proactive security intelligence tailored to high-risk environments such as government facilities, critical infrastructure, military installations, and high-profile events.

Key Capabilities

  • AI-Powered Threat Detection: Real-time weapon detection, unauthorized access monitoring, and behavioral anomaly identification.

  • FedRAMP-Compliant Cloud Infrastructure: Built on AWS GovCloud with security controls for IL5/IL6 environments.

  • Site-Specific AI Training: Utilizes NVIDIA Omniverse and Isaac Sim to generate custom digital twins for training AI models in synthetic environments.

  • Multi-Model AI Processing: Uses YOLOv8 (fast object detection), Faster R-CNN (high accuracy verification), and DETR (scene anomaly detection) for enhanced threat intelligence.

  • Secure, Automated Deployment: Agencies can spin up a dedicated AI instance through an easy-to-use self-service portal.

  • Edge Deployment for Field Operations: Deploys AI models to drones, security cameras, and mobile units using AWS Snowball Edge.

  • Automated Threat Alerts: Integrates with AWS Security Hub, SIEM systems, and real-time notification platforms.

How FIGHT Works

1. Pre-Event AI Training & Model Development

  • Build a Digital Twin: Create a 3D replica of the monitored area using Omniverse.

  • Generate Synthetic Training Data: Simulate threats (e.g., unauthorized persons, weapons, left-behind objects).

  • Train AI Models on Secure AWS Infrastructure: Use AWS SageMaker to fine-tune pre-trained models (YOLOv8, Faster R-CNN, DETR) for location-specific threat detection.

  • Deploy AI Model to AWS Inferentia: Optimize models for real-time inference.

2. Real-Time Threat Detection & Monitoring

  • Capture Live Video Streams: Ingest feeds from surveillance cameras, body-worn devices, drones, and IoT sensors.

  • Run AI Models in Parallel: Process each frame using three AI models simultaneously for maximum accuracy and speed.

  • Automate Threat Alerts: If multiple models detect a confirmed threat, alerts are sent to security teams in real time.

3. Secure Response & Mitigation

  • Trigger Automated Countermeasures: Integrates with access control systems (door locks, barricades, automated drones).

  • Notify Security Command Centers: Uses AWS SNS for emergency alerts and AWS Security Hub for centralized monitoring.

  • Log & Audit Threat Events: Stores security logs in AWS CloudTrail and SIEM integrations for forensic analysis.

Deployment Models

  1. Cloud-Based SaaS (AWS GovCloud): Agencies deploy FIGHT as a secure SaaS service with strict access controls.

  2. On-Premise Deployment (AWS Outposts): For classified environments requiring local AI inference.

  3. Edge Deployment (AWS Snowball Edge, IoT Devices): For mobile security teams, tactical units, and remote monitoring stations.

Security & Compliance

  • FedRAMP High/IL5-IL6 Compliance

  • Zero Trust Architecture with PrivateLink Networking

  • End-to-End Encryption for Video Streams & AI Models

  • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) & Audit Logging

Use Cases

  • Presidential & VIP Event Security: Train AI models before the event and deploy real-time monitoring during the event.

  • Military Base Protection: Detect unauthorized personnel, vehicle movements, and weapon threats.

  • Critical Infrastructure Defense: Secure power plants, water facilities, data centers.

  • Border Security & Law Enforcement: AI-driven threat detection for remote checkpoints and patrol drones.

Conclusion

FIGHT represents the next evolution in AI-powered security, offering agencies a highly adaptable, scalable, and secure threat detection system. By combining site-specific AI training with real-time threat monitoring, FIGHT enables faster decision-making, reduced false positives, and proactive threat response.
