Cybersecurity

So much of our lives resides in the terrain of cyber space.  For all the good that represents, it also increases our vulnerability and attack threat.  Shield’s team uses the power of data fusion to integrate the volumes of various data available, to analyze, assess and identify crime trends and future threats.  That analysis integrates the impact of political, economic, and social influencers on cyber space users.  It incorporates real world human geography influencers that, at times, exert enormous pressure to exploit the limitations of the cyber user’s political geographic environment or depressed economic situation. International conditions such as frail nation-state political environments, or behavioral frameworks that emphasize cultural relationships over nation-state must be assessed for their potential threat to our national security.  Multiple source data fusion improves model development, even with large-scale data.  The result is real world image of the conditions that generate cyber threats and approaches to mitigate those threats.
