Intelligence Community
Intelligence agencies must overcome challenges in sharing data with other agencies and must rationalize that data in order to identify and locate terrorists and other threats. Initiate® Entity Resolution transforms high volumes of data into actionable information, enabling agencies to identify persons of interest, recognize relationships between them and other entities.
Initiate Entity Resolution can assist you with these challenges:
- High noise-to-signal ratio: The volume of data that intelligence agencies are collecting is increasing exponentially, but the noise-to-signal ratio, already unfavorably high, grows even larger.
- False trails of data: Aliases and false names used by persons of interest, in conjunction with unintentional errors, create much unreliable data in agency systems.
- System-centric architectures inhibit information sharing: Existing systems are often system-centric, implemented to support a specific agency goal, but insufficient for sharing information across organizational boundaries.
- Real-time entity resolution: Time is of the essence. Intelligence agencies need data resolved on a real-time basis as soon as the data is available.
Initiate Entity Resolution transforms distributed data sets into resolved entities that give a high level of confidence to detect and defeat threats before they occur. Initiate scales to support missions involving billions of records and enables cross-organizational information sharing providing accurate information at all critical decision points, while protecting data privacy and security.
- Identify and locate persons of interest accurately: By casting a wide net before applying advanced statistical methods, Initiate Entity Resolution resolves data at the highest levels of accuracy, minimizing false negatives as well as false positives.
- Manage relationships between entities: Identify associations between persons of interest as well as between individuals and entities such as events, vehicles and locations, among others.
- Maintain organizational independence: Share information with other agencies without sacrificing ownership or authorship of your own systems.
- Manage security and privacy: Enforce data security and privacy policies by delivering the right view of data to the right user.
- Leverage existing systems: Initiate Entity Resolution is not a new records system that requires wholesale replacement of existing systems, but instead co-exists with systems already in place.
Initiate Entity Resolution resolves virtually any entity type within and across agency boundaries, delivering trusted, actionable information to intelligence agencies.
- Have confidence in your systems: Initiate Entity Resolution is the most proven entity resolution product in the industry, used in the most complex, mission-critical applications in global deployments, some involving billions of records.
- Focus on the problem with entity-centric views of data: Comprehensive, accurate, single views of your data enable you to isolate the root of the problems, persons of interest intent on causing harm.
- Detect and defeat threats before they occur: Initiate Entity Resolution enables intelligence agencies to overcome deception and errors in data, empowering agencies in their mission to detect and defeat threats to national security.
