AI and Cognitive Electronic Warfare Training by Tonex
AI and Cognitive Electronic Warfare Training by Tonex is a 2-day professional course designed for teams working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, electronic warfare, signal intelligence, adaptive systems, and defense-focused R&D. Participants learn how AI supports signal classification, emitter identification, threat library development, EW adaptation, and trusted decision support in complex electromagnetic environments. The course also examines how cognitive EW changes detection, response timing, and operational resilience.
Cybersecurity plays a critical role as AI-enabled EW systems become connected, data-driven, and vulnerable to adversarial manipulation. Cybersecurity controls help protect models, signal datasets, threat libraries, and mission workflows from spoofing, poisoning, and unauthorized access. Strong cybersecurity practices also support trustworthy AI behavior in contested EW operations.
