The way in which people communicate has changed. Person-2-Person telephony and SMS messaging has been replaced with feature rich and (often) cheaper Internet enabled communication such as WhatsApp, Facebook et-al.
Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) uses communications data to prosecute, detect and prevent crime and due to the mass migration towards Internet enabled communications, this pool of data which was derived from what are now legacy communications mechanisms is dwindling and becoming less and less useful and relevant. Whilst it used to be the case that a suspect with a phone to their head would be producing an easily available record of that communication, this is no longer the case and a disclosure request will reveal little.
Additionally, young people no longer telephone their friends and seldom use SMS. Instead, they communicate on social media, through Over-The-Top services such as WhatsApp, Instagram and KIK. Through these services they are exposed to not only their friends and known associates, but to a world of unknown people and influences that poses a significant threat to their and public safety.
Securinex can assist LEAs and intelligence agencies overcome the challenges of Internet Communications Records (ICRs) with solutions deployed today in real-world operational environments, providing agencies with a proven capability for capturing, filtering, augmenting, validating and presenting telecom operators’ ICRs, CD Records (CDRs) and other data in easily digestible formats to the investigator and analyst. The volumes of data are significant solution and Securinex overcomes this challenge with an efficient, secure, flexible, scalable and robust data exploitation pathway for the investigator; fusing multiple sources of data through a simple intuitive WEB interface.
