Knox Systems Launches IL5 Environment for Defense AI and Software

September 09, 2026
Knox Systems launched a Space Force sponsored Impact Level 5 environment for commercial software and AI applications handling sensitive defense workloads.

Knox Systems launched an Impact Level 5 environment sponsored by the U.S. Space Force, the company said in a press release. The environment provides a secure landing zone for commercial software and AI applications that support sensitive Department of War workloads.

The dedicated IL5 boundary can handle Controlled Unclassified Information and mission critical National Security Systems. It extends the company's existing FedRAMP High and Impact Level 4 capabilities, which it has held since 2019.

Technology providers can use the environment without creating and operating a separate government cloud deployment. Knox provides a hardened cloud boundary, continuous security operations, and a route for government customers to inherit an existing authorization.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
