Section / 02 What Defentect Builds

From Detection To Verification

DM3, SmartBoitier, and Kyvoo Assist. Each is licensed and integrated by Defentect against the sensors, identity systems, and communications operators already run.

01

DM3 — Federal CBRNE Detection

The original detection platform Defentect has operated continuously since 2000. Multi-agency CBRNE detection deployed at federal sites, with continuous live ingest from chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive sensors. The detection layer the rest of the platform was built around.

02

SmartBoitier — Edge Integration

Edge-compute integration product licensed exclusively to Defentect for North America in April 2026. Sensor-agnostic across 450+ device protocols, designed for distributed-asset deployments where bandwidth back to a central operations center is constrained.

03

Kyvoo Assist — AI Verification

AI verification platform with SmartAnswers® technology, licensed worldwide by Defentect in April 2026. Audits AI-generated conclusions against vetted, governed reference material before any notification routes to the operator. Every routed incident carries the verification audit trail.

Section / 03 Leadership

Public Service Across Eight Presidential Administrations

Decades of operating leadership across federal counter-terrorism, technology consulting, and emerging-markets infrastructure. The board has carried Defentect from federal CBRNE detection in 2000 to the multi-layer verified-response platform in production today.
