Threat actors’ communication and planning has moved online. Many law enforcement agencies have gaps in their understanding of social media and online criminal communication. Automating the process of data analysis can greatly assist in sorting through the digital swamp to get to the facts: What criminal networks is this suspect affiliated with? Who are their other members? Is this an organized group we need to focus on or empty threats from a basement provocateur? This webinar helps you better understand how your agency can benefit from data deep-dive analysis and how to better examine online criminal communications, from understanding how an apprehended suspect fits into criminal networks to event security where online chatter must be examined for potential threats.
