Galway-based cybersecurity company Siren, the all-in-one investigation company on a mission to keep people, assets and networks safe, yesterday announced the release of the latest version of its software.
Developed as a spin-out from Data Intensive Infrastructure, the big data and knowledge representation research group at the University of Galway, Siren offers an investigative intelligence platform that makes it easier to use data to answer questions and make links, find patterns and relationships.
It makes data accessible through real-time search, dashboard analytics, knowledge graphs and real-time alerts. Its advanced intelligence platform is available to law enforcement agencies and public safety organisations.
From a single lead, Siren 14.2 presents investigators with a pre-built intelligence graph, dramatically speeding up the investigation process. It automatically makes complex connections from large volumes of disparate data, surfacing previously inaccessible intelligence and improving effectiveness.
John Randles, CEO of Siren, said this release is absolutely huge for our users. Analysts who found knowledge graphs a challenge in the past can now have one built for them. The capability automatically maximizes the intelligence scope so is a massive improvement in terms of effectiveness, for even the most experienced investigator.”
Jeferson Zanim, Chief Product Officer, added “We’ve introduced some important collaboration tools in 14.2 and improved intelligence products. Siren can now produce link chart reports to be used as evidence, which is something our customers have been requesting. Now users can complete the full investigation from a single location.”
The evolution of technology, and specifically AI, is dramatically increasing the pace and complexity of criminal activities. Cyber attacks, digital IP theft and online child exploitation are just a few offenses that can occur within moments, and across international borders, causing widespread damage before traditional methods can respond. Siren addresses this ongoing challenge in 14.2, enabling users to dramatically speed up their investigations, discover untapped intelligence and share reports that can now also be used as official evidence.
