Flashpoint for the
Intelligence Community

Achieve Decision Dominance through Primary-Source Intelligence. Securely collect and analyze Flashpoint’s PAI and CAI, bridging the gap between open-source data and difficult-to-reach illicit communities. Gain the visibility needed to outpace the adversary across the full intelligence cycle.

The Flashpoint Difference

Asymmetric PAI and CAI Data Collection

Flashpoint delivers the broadest, deepest, and most relevant data from hard-to-reach online spaces, including illicit communities and chat services, providing critical, signal-rich information for your intelligence missions. We leverage automated and analyst-driven methods to collect our unique datasets.

Unmatched Speed & Agility

Our collection approach is analyst-driven, allowing for the rapid deployment of new sources and the collection of timely data, which is essential to keep pace with dynamic threat actors and evolving geopolitical conditions. This speed accelerates your intelligence cycle and improves decision-making.

Compliance-First & Secure Operations

Flashpoint operates with a compliance-first approach, adhering to Department of Justice best practices and international standards (like GDPR and CCPA). Our Managed Attribution solution provides a secure virtual environment for conducting covert digital reconnaissance and engaging with threat actors, protecting your network and preserving persona integrity.

Flashpoint provides the most comprehensive OSINT solutions today to support the different needs of the National Security market globally.
