The LLM Secret project, supported by Zanasi & Partners and coordinated by INRIA (FR), is funded by the European Commission under the European Defence Fund (EDF) between 2026 and 2030.
Modern defence operations generate vast flows of information; the real challenge is trust. LLM SECRET aims to develop a sovereign European dialogue system based on large language models that combines zero-trust security, explainable reasoning, and edge-grade deployment to provide reliable AI support in contested environments.
The LLM Secret consortium brings together 11 partners from 6 European and associated countries, including large technology developers, research institutes, SMEs.
