Tessera Subsidiary Zorronet Expands D4P Group Collaboration into AI-Powered Critical Infrastructure and Homeland Security Markets Across the EU

(NYSE:HLSQ) Tessera Defense and Homeland Security Inc. announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Zorronet Ltd., has expanded its strategic collaboration with D4P group s.r.o., a subsidiary of Samura s.r.o., a Czech company specializing in advanced technology distribution and implementation across Central and Eastern Europe. The expanded collaboration extends the companies' work from agriculture and transportation into homeland security and critical infrastructure protection across the European Union, with a focus on countering threats posed by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The initiative responds to increased European government focus on protecting essential infrastructure against emerging physical, cyber, and hybrid threats, following new guidance issued by the European Commission in July 2026 and the EU's Critical Entities Resilience Directive. According to European Union railway safety authorities, there were approximately 1,500 significant railway accidents in 2024, resulting in 750 deaths and 548 serious injuries, with EU-wide railway-accident cost estimates at about €3.5 billion. The expansion builds on the companies' initial July 2026 collaboration, which focused on AI vision-based agricultural pest management and protecting transportation infrastructure from wildlife and trespassers. D4P has received preliminary interest in AI-powered security solutions from Czech airports, the national power utility, and operators of strategic plants. Under the expanded collaboration, Zorronet will provide its AI-powered operational intelligence solution, which uses AI, machine learning, and vision language models to fuse data from cameras, radars, and other sensors, reduce false alarms, and automate responses. The solution is designed to help operators turn information from existing security infrastructure into actionable intelligence without requiring wholesale system replacement. D4P will lead business development, sales, and customer engagement across the territory and provide local implementation and support. Building on Zorronet's experience with Israel Railways, the companies are exploring opportunities to improve railway safety through AI-powered hazard detection and real-time alerts, with potential applications including station security, early threat detection, and coordinated incident response. The Czech and Slovak railway networks are approximately six times larger than the Israel Railways network, demonstrating Zorronet's ability to scale its solution. D4P has also identified potential opportunities with police and fire departments in the region, where Zorronet's platform could provide command centers with a single real-time operating picture, detect fires, intrusions, and other events early, and help dispatch the right units faster. Michael Oster, CEO of Tessera, stated that the expanded collaboration aligns Zorronet's AI-driven physical security capabilities with European priorities for critical infrastructure resilience. Idan Wasserman, CEO of Zorronet, emphasized the need for early detection of aerial threats and the value of integrated, AI-powered security, referencing the company's deployment with Israel Railways. Yaron Keren, CEO of D4P group s.r.o., highlighted the need for solutions that integrate with existing security systems and offer practical applications with reasonable implementation costs. Zorronet's technologies are applicable across defense, homeland security, critical infrastructure, transportation, municipalities, agriculture, smart cities, test and evaluation environments, remote asset protection, and civilian security applications.
