In today’s increasingly digitized world, security organizations may have
hundreds of siloed data sources that are relevant to their investigations
– such as government databases, LPR cameras, social media, network
data, security cameras, sensors, cyber threat reports, airline passenger
manifests and much more.
A digital intelligence solution provides the ability to automatically fuse
diverse data sources together. The resulting unified pool of information
enables faster and more effective investigations and eliminates the need
for time-intensive and error-prone manual data analysis.
Therefore, it is crucial to map the data sources your organization has
access to so you can select a solution that can handle all of them. It’s
important to address both internal data sources, such as police reports,
as well as external – whether from other government agencies, open
sources, such as social media or the Dark Web forums, or data provided
under court orders, such as call records.
