Kirkwall (Accelerator)

Company Description: Kirkwall was founded in 2022 to bring cybersecurity to the autonomy sector. For years, most commercial UAV and IoT-connected Agricultural equipment has been left wide open to cyber attacks, cyber takeovers, ransomware, and intentional sabotage. Kirkwall is currently working towards the completion of a trained Machine Learning algorithm that will allow swarms and teams of autonomous systems to automatically self-assess members for security concerns and shut down access and communications to affected systems in the event of an incident. Additional R&D is underway for the required physical mesh-networking hardware with a partner in Kansas City. Upon completion, the combination of this Machine Learning model and mesh networking hardware will be scalable to the entire UAV sector, Agricultural equipment sector, and United States Department of Defense as an enterprise-level solution.
