Defence says Palantir is "sandboxed" in its environment

General News

Summary

Australia’s Department of Defence is using Palantir’s Maven system in a sandboxed environment that is not connected to defence networks. Officials said they are using the software to aggregate data and explore how it could support future targeting and operational requirements. They also said the AI functions in the product are not enabled during the current trial. Defence added that Palantir staff are helping with setup work but are not embedded inside the organisation. The department has two active contracts with Palantir, including a $10.4 million deal running through February 2027.
