Maritime Defense Weekly: U.S. Intervention in Venezuela and Maritime Risk
Shield offshore platforms, subsea assets, and coastal zones with proactive intelligence. Windward empowers operators to anticipate vessel risks and eliminate blind spots around vital infrastructure.
Move beyond sporadic inspections and static data. Windward provides continuous oversight of complex maritime environments, allowing operators to detect high-risk traffic patterns and mitigate threats before they impact undersea infrastructure.
Identify reconnaissance and illicit activity before assets are compromised. Windward fuses behavioral analysis with satellite verification to pinpoint loitering, deceptive patterns, and interference near offshore and subsea infrastructure – allowing you to act before disruption occurs.
Safeguard your infrastructure with risk profiles tailored to your specific operational footprint. Windward continuously analyzes vessel behavior against your unique threat vectors, validating and prioritizing elevated risks so you can move from constant monitoring to targeted response.
Go from alert to action with confidence. Windward investigation workflows combine vessel history, ownership signals, behavioral context, and satellite imagery, helping teams confirm activity, validate proximity, and escalate findings with defensible evidence.
Monitor vessel activity around offshore platforms, pipelines, and subsea infrastructure with continuous, behavior-based intelligence. Windward enables early detection of proximity risk and abnormal behavior, supporting timely investigation and response to protect critical assets.
Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence solution fuses multi-sensor coverage (EO, SAR, and RF), AI-powered detections, in-app tasking, and a fully integrated investigation workflow. By delivering actionable visual insights to government, security, and compliance teams, it provides a decisive operational edge – enhancing maritime operations with speed, precision, and proof.
How does Windward help protect offshore and undersea infrastructure?
Windward provides continuous, behavior-based intelligence around offshore platforms, pipelines, and subsea assets. By monitoring vessel activity in real time and identifying abnormal or high-risk behavior early, operators gain the visibility needed to anticipate threats and reduce exposure before disruption occurs.
What types of threats can Windward detect near critical infrastructure?
Windward detects behaviors associated with reconnaissance, interference, and potential sabotage, including vessel loitering, unusual proximity patterns, deceptive routing, AIS or GNSS manipulation, and repeated activity near sensitive assets. These signals often indicate elevated operational or security risk.
How does Windward identify suspicious behavior near offshore platforms or subsea cables?
Windward analyzes vessel behavior over time, comparing live activity against historical patterns, asset-specific risk profiles, and known threat indicators. This behavioral intelligence is then validated with satellite imagery and RF data to confirm proximity, intent, and persistence.
Can Windward differentiate between legitimate maritime activity and real infrastructure risk?
Yes. Windward’s models account for normal operational traffic, seasonal activity, and expected service patterns. This context reduces false positives and ensures alerts focus on behavior that deviates meaningfully from legitimate maritime operations around your assets.
How does Remote Sensing Intelligence support infrastructure protection?
Windward’s Remote Sensing Intelligence uses EO, SAR, and RF satellites to verify vessel presence and activity near infrastructure, even when AIS is disabled or manipulated. This provides visual and signal-based confirmation to support investigations and incident attribution.
Can Windward support post-incident investigations?
Yes. Windward provides a full historical replay of vessel movements, behavior, ownership, and satellite evidence. This allows teams to reconstruct events, validate proximity and timing, and build defensible evidence for internal review, insurers, or authorities.
Can risk monitoring be tailored to specific assets or regions?
Absolutely. Operators can define asset-specific zones, exclusion areas, and threat thresholds. Windward then applies continuous monitoring aligned to each asset’s operational footprint and risk profile, ensuring relevance without alert fatigue.
Who typically uses Windward for infrastructure protection?
Windward is used by offshore operators, energy companies, telecom providers, security teams, and government-affiliated infrastructure owners responsible for platforms, pipelines, undersea cables, and sensitive maritime zones.
How is Windward different from traditional maritime monitoring or patrol-based approaches?
Traditional approaches rely on sporadic inspections, static data, or limited sensors. Windward combines continuous behavioral intelligence with satellite verification and investigation workflows, delivering proactive, explainable insight rather than isolated alerts or after-the-fact discovery.
