The Challenge

01.
  • This U.S agency needed a commercial partner to augment risk assessments and due diligence risk reviews for U.S. businesses.
  • Current approaches that often rely on spreadsheets and questionnaires have proven inadequate for risk detection and monitoring.
  • A new framework was required for this seemingly intractable problem, driven by the need to gain a solid footing on risk identification that would foster resiliency amid ongoing and increasingly complex adversarial manoeuvre.

Our Solution

02.

Adarga created an assessment methodology based on best practices from across public and private sectors, developing a novel risk rating level formulated via:

  • Analysis of open-source intelligence (OSINT) including worldwide news, social media, government publications, court records, and other publicly or commercially available data.
  • Application of natural language processing (NLP) to extrapolate foreign country of concern (FCOC) entanglement with U.S. businesses.
  • Identifying risk factors by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) analytical techniques, highlighting entity and relationship edges / nodes for data-driven mapping of the U.S. businesses risks.

Outcomes.

03.
  • Illuminated risks associated with Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) for select U.S. businesses.
  • Laid the foundation to inform and train AI/ML models to improve efficiencies for assessing FOCI risks across both structured and unstructured data at scale.
