Tessera Expands Zorronet AI Security Collaboration Across the EU
Tessera says its Zorronet subsidiary is expanding its collaboration with Czech technology distributor D4P into AI-powered homeland security and critical infrastructure protection across the European Union. The initiative will focus on unmanned aerial vehicle threats, transportation safety and coordinated responses for sensitive sites.
- Zorronet and D4P are expanding their work into EU homeland security and critical infrastructure.
- The focus includes UAV detection, railway safety, energy facilities and public safety.
- Zorronet's platform combines cameras, radars and other sensors using AI and machine learning.
- D4P will lead regional sales, customer engagement, implementation and support.
- Potential customers include airports, utilities, railways, police and fire departments.
From agriculture to critical infrastructure
The expanded collaboration builds on an agreement announced in July 2026, when Zorronet and D4P focused on AI vision-based agricultural pest management and protecting transportation infrastructure from wildlife and trespassers.
D4P, a subsidiary of Samura, specializes in distributing, implementing and commercializing advanced technologies across Central and Eastern Europe. Under the expanded arrangement, it will lead business development, sales and customer engagement across the territory, while also providing local implementation and support.
Tessera said the companies are responding to increased attention from European governments and infrastructure operators toward physical, cyber and hybrid threats. The company cited European Commission guidance issued in July 2026 on critical infrastructure resilience, along with the EU's Critical Entities Resilience Directive.
AI platform links cameras, radars and sensors
Zorronet will provide an AI-powered operational intelligence solution that combines artificial intelligence, machine learning and vision language models. According to Tessera, the system fuses information from cameras, radars and other sensors, reduces false alarms and automates responses.
The platform is designed to use existing security infrastructure rather than require a wholesale replacement of current systems. It is intended to turn information from distributed security equipment into actionable intelligence for operators managing large or complex sites.
D4P has received preliminary interest in these solutions from Czech airports, the national power utility and operators of strategic plants, according to the announcement. Potential uses include unauthorized UAV detection, early threat identification and coordinated incident response at military installations, airports, energy facilities and other sensitive locations.
Railways, police and fire services among potential users
The companies are exploring railway safety applications based on Zorronet's experience with Israel Railways. These could include AI-powered hazard detection, real-time alerts, station security and coordinated responses to incidents. Tessera said the Czech and Slovak railway networks are approximately six times larger than the Israel Railways network.
The announcement also points to possible deployments with police and fire departments in the region. In those settings, Zorronet's platform could provide command centers with a single real-time operating picture, detect fires and intrusions, and help dispatch appropriate units faster.
European railway safety figures cited by the company recorded approximately 1,500 significant railway accidents in 2024, with 750 people killed and 548 seriously injured. The announcement put the most recent EU-wide railway accident cost estimates at about €3.5 billion.
What the expansion means for the market
The collaboration gives Zorronet a regional route for introducing its integrated security technology to customers in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and other EU markets. D4P's local relationships and implementation role are intended to support adoption without requiring organizations to replace all their existing security systems.
Michael Oster, CEO of Tessera, said the partnership aligns Zorronet's capabilities with Europe's focus on critical infrastructure resilience. Zorronet CEO Idan Wasserman said operators need to identify aerial threats early, separate genuine risks from false alarms and coordinate responses. The companies have described these opportunities as potential applications, rather than confirmed deployments.
