The world is entering a new chapter of Cold War, marked by a convergence of geopolitical, cyber, and physical threats from an increasingly cohesive group of hostile state actors. State actors exploit digital platforms not just for espionage or disruption, but to shape global narratives and project influence. This is not limited to military operations but extends into economic, social, and political realms. As these adversaries push their authoritarian agendas, the stakes for security teams worldwide have never been higher.

In the world of hybrid warfare, the best intelligence requires the best data. Flashpoint National Security Solutions (FNSS) helps government teams generate tailored intelligence to inform, operate, defend and influence. By delivering industry-leading open-source intelligence (OSINT) solutions, investigations support, and finished intelligence, FNSS supports requirements across a wide range of national security and public safety missions.

As the stakes rise, Flashpoint remains at the forefront of continuous innovation to make threat intelligence even more impactful. The company recently announced a new Investigations Management tool, new intelligence requirements mapping feature, and location protection alert system for physical assets. These innovations are uniquely designed to deliver the most actionable insights precisely aligned with a customers’ threat and intelligence needs, enabling organizations to make informed decisions and protect their most critical assets. Additionally, the company’s AI innovations include Ignite AI for using natural language to find intelligence-led insights and Echosec AI for swift data analysis. Flashpoint’s approach to AI spans generative AI, personalization, and access to unparalleled data sources.

The Cipher Brief 2024 Threat Conference will take place in Sea Island, Georgia at The Cloister at Sea Island from October 5 – 8, 2024.
