The Challenge

01.
  • Help a U.S. agency raise awareness of nation-state threats and help emerging technology sectors protect their human talent and cutting-edge research.
  • Identify and understand convergent points between U.S. endeavours and strategic competitors in the race for technology leadership.
  • Develop an evidence-based research methodology to identify and predict counterintelligence threats to the U.S. technology development ecosystem.

Our Solution

02.

Adarga developed a multi-step approach to identify, anticipate, and prioritise the most likely U.S. tech entities at risk:

  • Analysed U.S. entities receiving U.S. government funding for tech research, as well as top venture capital (VC) investments.
  • Mapped funding sources to ultimate beneficial recipients by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) analytical techniques.
  • Analysed open-source intelligence (OSINT) in English and native languages, including worldwide news, social media, government publications, court records, and other publicly or commercially available data to identify risk indicators.
  • Prioritised risk using counterintelligence (CI) modelling and generated a threat score that was quantified empirically using an algorithm based on indicators mirroring proven USIC methods for assessing CI threats.

Outcomes.

03.
  • Illuminated the top 30 U.S. tech entities with high CI threat profiles and provided a prioritised list for security outreach efforts.
  • Provided 30 individual assessment reports on each of the entities, with key findings, link charts, and empirical data.
