Webinar: Accuracy in the Intel Community - Where False Positive & False Negatives Matter
The Intelligence and Federal Law Enforcement Communities face a set of unique data challenges. They must balance the need for breadth with privacy, speed with thoroughness, and flexibility with depth.
Sorting through the myriad real-time sources of information while facing potential life-or-death situations, the Intelligence, law enforcement, and defense communities rely on the accuracy of their own data - not to mention the need to augment this information with numerous external sources.
The challenge is to link and match records across these disparate data feeds (or sources) to determine potential suspects and threats, and alert the appropriate parties in real time. Whether a treasury enforcement specialist is looking for information to shut down a fraudulent cross-border operation or DHS is attempting to stop illegal crossings linked to organized crime or terrorist activities, the need for data accuracy and thoroughness is paramount.
Having the right information and linking the right records can help ensure that the right person of interest is found, while allowing an innocent citizen whose name resembles one on a watch list to remain unaffected. Departments and agencies must minimize the number of false positives and false negatives, guaranteeing that potential matches are not missed while maintaining a high degree of accuracy.
Join Initiate Systems and Carahsoft for this webinar on how departments and agencies can successfully achieve this balance, limiting false positives and negatives while building unprecedented levels of intelligence across internal and external data sources. You will also hear examples of how this technology has been successfully leveraged in mission-critical situations.
In this webinar, we will discuss how to:
- Identify records referring to the same person of interest in different databases without the need for a unique identifier in an environment with incomplete information and data sets
- Incorporate multiple languages into a query approach
- Enable real-time, secure information sharing and privacy protection across departments and agencies
- Guard against false positives and false negatives through probabilistic matching algorithms
- Improve results for today's needs while preserving flexibility for tomorrow's emerging issues
