Unsafe borders create major safety risks
Harnessing the power of publicly available information with an AI-based, technologically advanced solution can save lives and protect what matters most.
The Challenge
Cross-border activity has grown in both volume and diversity in recent years, but the ultimate goal remains the same — facilitating the beneficial movement of legitimate goods, travel, and citizens while keeping a country safe from harm. The complexity of cross-border activity has expanded with the rise of global ecommerce and the increasing number of complex U.S. and international trade laws.
Disrupting the flow of illegal goods and persons at points of entry is a top priority for the security of every nation. The consequences of unsafe borders are significant — terrorism, transnational crime, cybercrime, intellectual property theft, and unsafe products — all of which threaten a nation, its businesses, and its citizens.
The Babel Street Solution
The key to border enforcement is efficiently balancing the volume and vigilance of customs, visas, and global entry programs to facilitate legitimate trade and transit of people across borders. A streamlined and scalable approach to cross-border screening to identify in-country or foreign threats requires the inclusion of publicly available information (PAI) from a diverse set of data sources from around the world in 200+ languages.
Babel Street’s analytics platform offers an AI-enabled repeatable process to automatically screen entities against public records, watchlists, social media presence, and other customer-selected factors to discover and decipher insights on entities that pose a threat or show evidence of IP infringements, theft, and economic espionage. Further exploration can isolate signals, proximity, and clusters of exit or entry. All insights are automatically translated into your native language and presented in a single pane of glass.
The Impact on Your Organization
The machine learning (ML) powered approach delivered by the Babel Street platform is a force multiplier to enforce the laws of the land while doing more, with greater consistency, in less time, with less risk.
Trade and entry enforcement, aided by the powerful Babel Street Insights platform, helps governments and citizens directly ensure a country’s safety and economic vitality.
