The combination of CyberSpatial TeleSeer and Equitus.us KGNN (Knowledge Graph Neural Network) creates a unified "Physical-Digital-Relational" intelligence layer. While TeleSeer provides the "eyes" on the network, KGNN provides the "brain" that understands the hidden relationships between those network assets and the real-world entities they represent.
Here is how they work together to produce a comprehensive security posture:
1. The Data Loop: From Packets to Patterns
The two systems create a feedback loop that moves from raw network traffic to high-level strategic insights.
* Step 1: TeleSeer (The Sensory Layer): TeleSeer captures network traffic (PCAPs) passively and agentlessly. It identifies every device, protocol, and connection path. It produces a Digital Twin of the network infrastructure.
* Step 2: KGNN (The Contextual Layer): KGNN ingests the output from TeleSeer. It takes that "network map" and overlays it with non-network data, such as:
* Personnel records (Who owns this device?)
* Financial transaction logs (Is this server processing high-value transfers?)
* Geospatial data (Where is this server physically located?)
* The Result: A Semantic Knowledge Graph where a node isn't just an "IP Address," but a "Critical Financial Server located in London, managed by Admin X, currently interacting with an unauthorized endpoint in Region Y."
2. Enhanced "Mission Relevant Terrain" (MRT-C)
TeleSeer has a built-in feature called Mission Relevant Terrain in Cyberspace (MRT-C), which scores assets based on their network importance (e.g., "This router is a chokepoint").
* How KGNN Improves It: KGNN refines these scores by adding "Business Impact."
* Example: TeleSeer might flag two routers as equally important because they have the same number of connections. However, KGNN recognizes that Router A carries encrypted traffic for the "Executive Payroll" system, while Router B carries guest Wi-Fi.
* Action: The system automatically prioritizes the protection and authorization of Router A, augmenting the security team’s focus.
3. Collaborative Security (NetOps + SecOps)
By working together, these tools bridge the gap between technical network management and strategic security governance.
| Feature | CyberSpatial TeleSeer | Equitus KGNN | Integrated Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visibility | Layers 1–7 Network Traffic | Relational Entity Data | Total Domain Awareness |
| Detection | Anomalous Traffic/Spikes | Relationship Anomalies | Fraud & Insider Threat Detection |
| Automation | Network Mapping | Data Unification | Zero-Manual Data Stitching |
| Authorization | Pathway Validation | Identity Governance | Hardware-Level Zero Trust |
4. Implementation on IBM Power & Dell Systems
Through the TD SYNNEX/Destination AI partnership, this joint solution is delivered as a pre-validated stack:
* Power 10/11 MMA: Equitus KGNN runs on the IBM Power Matrix Math Accelerator, processing the graph neural network without needing GPUs.
* Dell PowerEdge GPUs: TeleSeer uses the GPUs to render the massive 3D visualizations and digital twins for real-time monitoring.
Next Step
Would you like me to create a Project Network Eye workflow that shows how a "Suspicious Credit Decision" (detected by KGNN) triggers a "Network Isolation" visual alert in TeleSeer?
