SOFTWARE---THREADS

Raw data is prepared for data mining and analysis by cleaning, standardizing, translating, transforming, formatting and merging
Utilities for quick import of multiple file formats 
 

Location correlation
Crime correlation
Event pattern analysis
Causal reactive analysis
Data Conditioning/Processing

An easy web-like interface that any investigator use
Intelligence-driven analysis
Actionable intelligence at a push of a button
Predictive Analysis: Identify patterns that can support reliable predictions about future actions or trends of suspected criminals or terrorists. These techniques might be used to predict their future actions, such as phone calls or travel.

Linkage charts
Timelines
Interactive output back to source data
GIS Mapping
Human Analysis:  The final stage of most analysis depends on the capabilities of human analysts. THREADS minimizes or removes this step by offering:

Text summarization
Text categorization
Text clustering, which links documents containing similar concepts
Information or entity extraction, which identifies people, places, and organizations in data and the links among them
Automated posting and analysis of relational data
Visualization: Visualization tools produce charts, graphs and interactive maps that indicate the relationship of data points, including how they are connected geographically over time.

Techniques used for mining unstructured data include:

Automatically imports data from common mobile phone forensics tools such as Cellebrite and XRY/XACT:
Phonebooks
Call Record Details (Outgoing, Incoming and Missed)
SMS messaging that have been sent, received and archived
IMEI / IMSI
Photos, Video and Audio files
Automatically import Call Detail Records from service providers or other sources to combine with data for mobile phone forensics tools
Unique feature Discovery Drive, allows user to output any source documents including the cell export files, audio, video, and photos all into a patented html view that can be placed on a USB drive for external viewing.
Text Mining: The smart Text Parser automatically extracts entities out of emails, spreadsheets, and text documents for reports and graphical analysis. Grab license plate numbers, dates of birth and telephone numbers. It automatically links people to organizations, events and addresses for reports.

Relate aspects of an investigation (incidents, associations and communications) with a graphical output
Importing/Exporting: THREADS makes it easy to get valuable intelligence in and out of the system. The Call File Importer quickly parses and loads phone records from service providers, mobile phone forensics tools, pen registers and other sources. Export reports to PDF or Excel for easy sharing or presentation.

Use data mining and relational tools to find previously unknown associations
Link analysis to identify and connect suspects by patterns in their email, phone calls, travel and other actions
Temporal Analysis

Use existing data to predict future activity (predictive analysis.)
Identify a suspects movement patterns (locations)
Relational Analysis

Identify a suspects inner circle or organization of threat using phone, email or text messaging records
Build communication trees that uncover hidden relationships
Reveal patterns and chains in captured communications
Correlation Analysis

Communication Analysis

Data Analytics: Advanced pattern analysis uncovers significant individuals otherwise buried in large amounts of data. Find who is most likely to be involved in a conspiracy. Know who is making calls from the same telephone, and who is contacting the same individual, either concurrently or at different times. Uncover the holes in your data and highlight the times when your target is making unusually frequent calls.

The Core Capabilities of THREADS are:

THREADS includes a wide range of analysis and reporting features. Parse any type of call imaginable, including calling cards and financial transactions made over the phone. Then analyze to see why the calls were made.

Leveraging powerful predictive and temporal analysis algorithms, THREADS goes way beyond simple link charts and frequency reports and identifies inner circles to include implied links based on timing and sequence of communications between targets

BerlaCorp and Direct Hit Systems have partnered to bring you THREADS. THREADS is the next generation in investigative analysis tools allowing agencies and organizations to bring together telephone and mobile phone data obtained from a host of sources into a single application for analysis.
