- Visual Analytics Inc. (VAI), a leading provider of link discovery and
information sharing technologies, and TARGUSinfo, the leading provider of On-Demand Data services for
the public sector, have partnered to offer an integrated solution for faster access and better targeting
of telephone subscriber-related data. VAI has integrated TARGUSinfo data interfaces into its VisuaLinks
product to help its clients validate information such as phone numbers, names and addresses used in
criminal analysis, intelligence operations, anti-money laundering activities, and fraud detection.
TARGUSinfo provides real-time query and response on most of the US telephone subscriber data including
phone numbers, names, addresses, and carrier information. VisuaLinks is a high-end analytical system
designed to access and integrate large volumes of data from multiple sources into a coherent visualization
to expose new patterns, trends, and connections among the data elements. The combined offering is designed
to access and integrate TARGUSinfo data directly with local data to support more extensive analysis where
accuracy and time are critical to the investigation.
According to VAI's President and CTO, Dave O'Connor, "Access to TARGUSinfo data is an important offering
in our technology suite because it enables our clients to produce better and more precise results for
lawful intercept, financial crimes, and related types of forensic investigations. VisuaLinks is designed
to integrate a client's data with TARGUSinfo for cross-checking, validation, and additional lead generation.
It is an excellent fit within the analytical framework used by VisuaLinks."
James Bruning, Vice President at TARGUSinfo, states, "Our relationship with Visual Analytics is important
because law enforcement, intelligence, and commercial systems require better avenues to access and validate
larger quantities of data within the context of their investigations, especially with highly accurate and
reliable subscriber data. The coupling between TARGUSinfo data and VisuaLinks is one of the first commercial
offerings of its kind that is designed to meet these industry demands."
The new offering will be made on a subscriber basis and will be made available in the forthcoming release of
VisuaLinks (Version 5.0) slated for release in Fall 2007.
