"AI is reshaping how the DoW will operate in the years ahead, but realizing its full potential requires securely delivering that technology when and where it can help service members make faster, better-informed decisions in the most demanding operational environments," said Donnie Scott, president of Everforth ECS.

Daniel Keller, head of the Defense business unit at Everforth ECS, said the Nautilus program represents "the next step in bringing trusted AI from the laboratory into real-world operational environments."
