“SITE's methodology of targeted collection through the use of human experts ensures that content within online forums is not indiscriminately collected and confirms that the content contains violent rhetoric or is associated with these extremist or terrorist groups...Specifically, the tool assisted with the investigation of threats to local elected leadership that resulted in the recovery of dozens of firearms and a significant amount of ammunition.”

“...SITE provides unique capabilities through its use of human expertise on extremist networks and communities. [Other vendor] collects and disseminates large amounts of raw data using artificial intelligence (AI) and algorithmic tools. Because this is done on an automated basis, consumers of [other vendor] are vulnerable to receiving unrelated/ unnecessary information (or “noise”) as well as incomplete or inaccurate information...SITE provides human and network contexts to their consumers.”

“SITE’s discovery of a video posted by an ISIS supporter provided our agency with early warning, which initiated geolocation of the media content to inform the police department of that area. Further investigation eventually led to the identification of the suspect, who was actively planning violent jihadist activities in the country of residence.”

“Whether it’s a quiet terrorist takedown overseas by us (or our partners) or just the unwanted ‘heat’ that any exposure creates—SITE has undoubtedly been a factor in so many victories in this war of good versus evil.”
