Securboration
Securboration was founded in 2001 to address collaboration needs of the DoD, particularly in the areas of scenario generation for complex simulations. With funding from the Small Business Innovative Research Program, Securboration developed innovative techniques to support large-scale military exercises by seamlessly integrating configuration data from multitudes of stand-alone simulation participants. This automated the translation, synchronization, and distribution of data to provide ‘ground-truth’ to initiate complex distributed military exercises. Securboration has continued to evolve our expertise, pioneering techniques to transform data into knowledge and exchanging that knowledge within the collaboration process. We use a combination of artificial intelligence and service oriented concepts to facilitate and exchange knowledge in areas such as Effects-Based operations, Force Management, and Adversarial Modeling. As early as 2001 with our first contract Scenario Generation, Securboration understood the value of distributed architectures and the Service Oriented Architecture paradigm, and have always practiced the principles of what has become DoD’s Net-Centric Vision. We continue to be a driving force in developing net-centric solutions for our customers to meet collaboration needs of in areas such as the U.S. Air Operations Center and U.S. Joint Forces Command.
