EIRSHIELD
Mobile all-terrain Ultra Short Range Air Defence (USHORAD) system designed to detect, track and neutralise aerial threats including multirotor and fixed-wing drones. Radars detect drone targets up to 8 km, with radio frequency sensors and electro-optical/infrared cameras for verification and classification. The system can jam radio and GNSS signals and is equipped with soft-kill interceptor drones capable of autonomous maneuvering, as well as hard-kill effectors.
SURVEILSPIRE
Autonomous mobile surveillance platform combining long-range AI-assisted camera missions with an integrated unmanned aerial inspection system. The lightweight platform can conduct fully automated operations for weeks without field operators, in different weather conditions, with multiple communication variants providing constant real-time access to mission data.
CAIMAN
Vehicle-mounted rapid surveillance and situational awareness system designed for ultra-fast reconnaissance missions. CAIMAN installs on a 4x4 pickup truck and can operate while driving, with AI-assisted software enabling operators to instantly detect and classify land and aerial threats. Suited for border security, coastal monitoring, forest patrols and urban special missions.
EUROMITE
Modular unmanned surface vessel designed for coastal surveillance, covert operations and autonomous patrolling. The 8.5-metre vessel is equipped with adaptive AI-assisted navigation and offers an operational range of over 800 km. The hull is built in partnership with Baltic Workboats.
Surveilaiz
Camera-agnostic AI-powered command and control software platform that forms the intelligence layer across DefSecIntel's systems. Operators work on the loop as the software handles automated threat detection and classification, reducing false alarms and enabling faster response. Can be integrated into third-party camera systems and customised for different environments and threat types.
About
DefSecIntel Solutions is an Estonian defence technology company founded in 2018 by Jaanus Tamm, headquartered at the Tehnopol technology campus in Tallinn. The company develops AI-assisted autonomous surveillance and security systems for border guards, law enforcement agencies and armed forces.
