Last fetched
Equitus is a threat actor tracked in WhisperGraph's MITRE ATT&CK corpus, observed using 0 techniques.
Description
Equitus provides a product called the Equitus Video Sentinel (EVS), which transforms raw video streams into actionable intelligence using AI-driven analytics. EVS offers real-time object detection, classification, and alert management. Equitus' technology is built on a Knowledge Graph Neural Network (KGNN), which unifies and analyzes large and complex datasets. EVS is is explicitly marketed for border surveillance, capable of detecting and analyzing human and vehicle movements, including identifying individuals carrying items such as backpacks. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has been upgrading surveillance towers in Arizona by incorporating advanced machine learning technology to automate the detection of border crossings. Equitus' Video Sentinel is part of this effort, working alongside IBM's Maximo Visual Inspection software. The project processes up to 100 simultaneous video streams, with data being hosted on Google's cloud platform, MAGE (ModulAr Google Cloud Platform Environment), which serves as the central repository for video analysis.
