For years, this agency relied on Cognyte to deliver the latest intelligence technology, and as it faces more sophisticated adversaries and growing security needs, it’s choosing to deepen that partnership–the clearest measure of trust an agency can give.
National security agencies are managing rapidly evolving and increasingly sophisticated threats. The volume and complexity of data available to investigators is growing faster than their current solutions can address. Using AI-powered analytics, purpose-built for intelligence investigations, agencies can clean, enrich and correlate data with greater precision and scale. This allows the teams to uncover critical intelligence faster, work across more diverse sources and respond to complex investigations to identify, prevent and mitigate those threats.
Expanding with existing customers as their mission needs scale is central to Cognyte’s growth strategy. For this agency, growing data volumes and increasingly complex investigative workflows drove the decision to expand. This new subscription agreement provides the agency with ongoing access to the latest analytics capabilities as mission requirements evolve, while enabling it to grow the capacity of its investigative teams, extend into new use cases and respond more effectively to emerging operational demands. Trusted to support mission-critical operations in sovereign and highly sensitive environments, the solution delivers the accuracy, reliability and transparency the agency depends on to effectively safeguard national security.
“National security organizations are operating in an increasingly complex security environment with no room for error,” said Elad Sharon, Chief Executive Officer of Cognyte. “The pace of intelligence operations is accelerating while data volumes are accumulating faster than current market solutions can confront. This is escalating the need for purpose-built AI-powered investigative analytics that help agencies keep pace and support confident decision making to save lives and protect national interests and assets. For years, this agency has relied on Cognyte to deliver the latest intelligence technology, and as it faces more sophisticated adversaries and growing security needs, it is choosing to deepen that partnership – the clearest measure of trust an agency can give.”
