Using Data to Identify Elusive Enemies
Understanding the enemy has been a vital strategy for success in conflicts throughout history. In recent decades, our enemies’ operations have increased exponentially in complexity. Additionally, conflict has moved past the battlefield, into our cities, transportation systems and beyond, with little outward indication of whom our enemies really are. Access to overwhelming amounts of information about individuals and groups can help determine and diffuse threats, but only if that information is delivered quickly, comprehensively and intelligently.
With data-fusion systems, we can know our enemies better, and more quickly, than ever before. But those systems must deliver a common operational view of their domain of interest. They must also deal with data intuitively, with models that appropriately handle uncertainty and provide support for predicting, recognizing and dealing with unanticipated threats. Flexibility, dynamic evolution, speed and precision are no longer options: they are the minimum requirements.
Learn how to get the most out of data-fusion systems in this presentation. You'll discover the challenges inherent in data fusion and hear how operational Allied ISR systems are solving these challenges.
In this Webinar, you will learn how ISR systems can be created to:
- Manage uncertainty during complex observations
- Provide support for complex and subtle relationships within data
- Infer human and group behavior
- Evolve to handle new kinds of information and analytic processes
- Provide actionable intelligence that allows us to know — and defeat — our enemies

"By efficiently netting and synchronizing sensors in real time and combining detections, it is possible to increase the probability of detecting and identifying a target, while also reducing the time it takes to accurately locate targets by more than 90%. This refined information updates a common, shared-network Objectivity database so that the problem of multiple reports on a single target is dramatically reduced."

Tim Kline
Former Director Technology and Engineering
Canada’s Communications Security Establishment
|
| Mr. Kline has over 24 years of private and public sector experience in the computer and communications sectors, with 18 years of experience working in National Intelligence and Information Technology Security (ITS). He recently retired from the Canadian Federal Government. His last executive position was the Director of Technology and Engineering within the Communications Security Establishment (CSE), Canada’s high-tech intelligence gathering organization. Mr. Kline has chaired many multinational Intelligence and Information Security bodies, such as the Common Criteria Recognition Arrangement (CCRA) where most of the world’s nations that produce or purchase computer security products recognize a common set of standards and product evaluation criteria, and the Joint Intelligence Interoperability Forum (JIIF), the most senior technical committee responsible for how signals intelligence is gathered and shared among the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Mr. Kline’s recognized leadership allowed him to be the first non-US or UK JIIF chairman. |
