Prepaire Labs unveiled Shield, a real-time biological intelligence and response platform designed to help governments, healthcare systems, defence organisations, and humanitarian operators move from detection to response in real time.The launch took place during ISNR Abu Dhabi 2026, marking the first commercial product release from Prepaire Labs and introducing a new category of operational biological infrastructure built for modern outbreak preparedness, response coordination, and sovereign health security, according to a media release.The announcement comes amid renewed international concern following the latest Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, reinforcing the growing need for faster, more connected biological intelligence systems capable of identifying threats, coordinating response workflows, and accelerating intervention timelines.SHIELD integrates outbreak surveillance, environmental risk modelling, pathogen intelligence, Digital Twin modelling, pharmacogenomics, AI-driven risk analysis, and autonomous response workflows into a single operational platform.The system can operate in cloud, hybrid, or fully sovereign on-premise environments through Shield Spark edge nodes, allowing governments and institutions to retain local control over sensitive data while participating in a federated intelligence network.The platform is designed to support a wide range of operational environments, including:national public health systemshospitals and laboratory networksmilitary and civil defence organisationshumanitarian and NGO response operationscritical infrastructure and field deploymentsProfessor Min Park, Co-Founder of Prepaire Labs, said: “The world has spent decades building systems that report outbreaks after the fact. Shield was built to reduce the time between signal detection and operational response. We believe biological preparedness will become one of the defining infrastructure challenges of the next decade. Faster intelligence, faster sequencing, and faster coordination are now essential capabilities. Platforms like Shield represent a major step toward integrated preparedness infrastructure.”The platform’s architecture allows hospitals and frontline facilities to participate in Shield’s preparedness network without requiring sensitive patient data to leave local environments.According to the media release, hospitals and NGOs can deploy Shield Core as a preparedness layer while selectively activating advanced capabilities such as Digital Twins, pharmacogenomic analysis, pathogen sequencing, and HAiLO-driven therapeutic workflows.Prepaire Labs also announced a humanitarian access framework for qualified NGOs and outbreak response organisations, allowing approved field operators to use Shield in resource-limited environments while contributing governed pathogen and epidemiological intelligence back into the network.
