Rapid Intelligence Analysis and Exploitation - From unstructured to structured data
iFathom Corporation is proud to offer Record Digger, a tool which provides rapid intelligence analysis and exploitation of data. This paradigm is the inverse of a Google search since it tells you what is in the data first before an analyst asks the question. A primary client reference resides with the US Joint Chiefs of Staff. Users recommended this as their number one intelligence tool during the NATO and Allies CWID 2006 technology war games.
Record Digger works with data stored in electronic mailboxes, local and server folders, and on the Internet. It is a must for your analytical tool box.
The ongoing increase in the volume of electronic information existing in emails and documents, whether legacy, current or yet to be generated, is presenting serious challenges to data management. One of the first obstacles for users is to determine which documents (text files, word documents, PDFs, Excel and PowerPoint documents, emails, etc) are records and which ones are not.
Record Digger identifies documents quickly and accurately, saving the customer up to 90% of the time and cost normally required. In fact, instead of a review exercise, the activity becomes that of an analyst working with structured data thereby increasing the value of this solution. There is no need for background knowledge of the content. Identification of key data points helps validate near real time information.
Electronic documents in many formats can be processed at the rate of:
- 16,000 emails per hour;
- 8,000 to 10,000 documents in local and server folders per hour;
- 2,000 to 4,000 documents on websites per hour (bandwidth dependant).
Recent solution examples for iFathom include structured data libraries for Thyroid Cancer, Tasers, and a structured website analysis for Corrections Canada, all of which benefited from having their sensitive data protected on the web. Other long term users of Record Digger include the US Department of Justice.
