Developed through decades of cyber operations experience and zero-trust innovation, Velhawk brings together artificial intelligence (AI), automation and adaptive analytics. Together, they form a unified cyber defence architecture.

Velhawk improves an organisation’s security posture, significantly reduces response time to cyber incidents and decreases staffing requirements by automating critical detection, decision and remediation workflows. The result is a modernised cybersecurity ecosystem that enables customers to focus on mission execution while maintaining constant vigilance against evolving threats.

“Our customers are operating in an era where the attack surface is expanding faster than the workforce can grow,” said Peder Jungck, Chief Innovation and Strategy Officer for the Intelligence & Security sector at BAE Systems. “Velhawk gives them the advantage they need now — a way to automate defence, outpace threats and elevate human expertise through autonomy and AI. It’s not just about reacting faster, it’s about predicting what comes next.”

By fusing threat intelligence, secure data management and rapid response under a single ecosystem, Velhawk represents the next evolution of BAE Systems’ cybersecurity solutions, one built for speed, scale and the future fight.
