Siren - Experts & Thought Leaders

Siren, the all-in-one investigation company, is proud to announce that the National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) will be formally introduced as a customer at this year’s International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) conference in Boston. This collaboration marks a pivotal evolution in cyber threat investigations and information sharing between the private sector and law enforcement. Cyber-related threats The NCFTA, a non-profit, creates an essential environment for responsible collaboration The NCFTA, founded in 2002, provides a trusted, neutral forum for sharing, identifying and disrupting the most urgent cyber-related threats.  The NCFTA, a non-profit, creates an essential environment for responsible collaboration, enabling collective defence against cybercrime. How Siren transforms operations Siren will integrate directly with NCFTA processes, automating the extraction of critical indicators. This key information is instantly accessible to managers, allowing them to efficiently assess incoming cases and determine if similar threats have been previously investigated. Utilising Siren’s software and automation, NCFTA will more effectively be able to query appropriate internal and external data sources to gather further intelligence. Siren's commitment The NCFTA commits to getting results more quickly and efficiently to build a stronger, joint defence Once assigned, analysts will be able to dive deeper into investigations using the Siren platform, quickly filtering relevant data and uncovering key connections. As part of the growing Siren customer base, the NCFTA’s engagement underscores Siren's commitment to driving innovation in cybersecurity and investigative intelligence. By partnering with Siren, the NCFTA commits to getting results more quickly and efficiently to build a stronger, collaborative defence against emerging cyber threats. Advanced tools to streamline investigations Matt LaVigna, CEO of National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) commented: “As the volume and complexity of cyber threats continue to rise, it’s critical that we have the most advanced tools to streamline investigations and communicate in real-time with our members. Siren will allow us to automate tedious manual work and enable our talented staff to connect data across cases much quicker and uncover patterns that we may have otherwise missed.” John Randles, CEO of Siren, added: “We’re very excited at Siren to support the NCFTA with their mission. Our technology is an excellent fit for Matt Livigna and his team and will enable his workforce to do so much more.”

Siren, the all-in-one investigation company, and Senzing, a pioneer in real-time entity resolution AI, announce a strategic partnership to revolutionise law enforcement investigations. By integrating Senzing advanced entity resolution technology with the Siren AI-powered platform, law enforcement agencies can surface hidden entities, connect disparate data sources, and make faster, more accurate decisions in combating criminal activities. Law Enforcement Challenges Law enforcement faces growing challenges in managing vast amounts of data across fragmented systems. This partnership combines Siren’s AI tools with Senzing entity resolution technology to help agencies identify individuals and entities more precisely. Joint benefits include: Eliminating duplicate records: Consolidation of duplicate records, providing a unified view of individuals or entities, even under different aliases. Connecting data across jurisdictions: Criminals use multiple identities. This solution links data across geographies, offering a comprehensive view of activities. Enhancing investigative accuracy: Improves analysis of connections between suspects, victims and witnesses. Preventing misidentification: Reducing identity confusion ensures the right individuals are targeted, preventing wrongful arrests. Powering investigations with AI and automation “Our mission is to keep people, assets and networks safe. This collaboration enhances Siren’s ability to uncover hidden connections with greater speed and precision,” said John Randles, CEO of Siren. Siren excels at exploring complex data relationships in real time. Senzing AI continuously improves entity resolution accuracy across datasets, offering full transparency into how entities are resolved so investigators can confidently make decisions. Unlike most AI technologies, Senzing provides full details on how entities were resolved for peace of mind. Jeff Jonas, CEO of Senzing, added, “We’re proud to partner with Siren to help law enforcement and security agencies analyse risks. Siren’s ability to link and enrich data from multiple sources makes Senzing entity resolution a perfect fit.”

Siren, the all-in-one investigation platform company on a mission to keep people, assets and networks safe, and Chainalysis, the blockchain intelligence platform, announced details of a strategic partnership at the annual Chainalysis Links event in New York. As cryptocurrency becomes more mainstream and used by both good and bad actors, the partnership addresses the increasing need for more sophisticated intelligence technology to fight illicit cryptocurrency activity. Chainalysis’ mission Many believe cryptocurrency is the future, and it is expected that blockchains will soon be the world’s primary mechanism for the exchange of value. Chainalysis’ mission is to build trust in blockchains, setting the stage for the mass adoption of crypto in a way that gives participants safety and security.  Its data powers investigation, compliance, and market intelligence software that has been used to solve some of the world’s most high-profile criminal cases and grow consumer access to cryptocurrency safely. AI-driven search functionality Using patented technology, Siren delivers a modern search venture at firm speed and scale Siren is an AI-driven investigative intelligence platform that is used by some of the world’s pioneering Law Enforcement, National Security and Cyber threat investigators. Siren connects and enriches local classified information with external vendor data as well as data available from public sources to identify patterns, actors and events. Siren’s AI-driven search functionality dramatically reduces the complexity in searching for intelligence-like browsing the internet or shopping online anyone can search for intelligence links, regardless of technical abilities, across multiple data sources and get immediate results on both desktop and mobile devices. Using patented technology, Siren delivers a modern search experience at enterprise speed and scale, making advanced intelligence queries accessible to all across the organisation. Chainalysis Investigations solution Studies API is a REST-based API that programmatically aids to prioritise and accelerate studies Through the collaboration, illicit activity is easier to identify in real-time across multiple data sources, including Chainalysis’ on-chain data, allowing investigators and analysts to map addresses to named services, detect illicit activity as it happens, and build cases. The Siren platform leverages the Chainalysis Investigations API (IAPI), part of the Chainalysis Investigations solution. The Investigations API is a REST-based API that programmatically helps to prioritise and accelerate investigations. This ensures investigation teams can focus on the most important cases with the highest likelihood of success. The IAPI enables data engineers and scientists to enrich existing datasets with Chainalysis insights to enhance large-scale investigations, surface new leads, and uncover previously unknown connections between different cases for deconfliction. New York at Links 2024 John Randles, CEO of Siren, said: "Linking to crypto across multiple data sources is pivotal for investigators. We're delighted to announce the partnership here in New York at Links 2024. We were lucky to attend a couple of Chainalysis events last year and experience first-hand the synergies in our offerings and missions." John Randles will speak on Day Two of Chainalysis Links 2024 on the Intersection of AI and Crypto panel. Shannon Hughes, Senior Director, Head of Business Development and Partnerships commented: "Cryptocurrency is no longer just a niche specialty for elite cyber law enforcement units – our customers find connections to crypto across national security, crime, fraud, and cyber threats. This partnership enables investigators to combine Chainalysis data with other data sources to identify intelligence signals and actionable leads across specialties. This is the future of harnessing the transparency of blockchains to build a safer economic system."
