Law Enforcement – Detect, Monitor, Track, Control, Lawfully Intercept 
Edge Technologies’ Data Alchemist provides an intelligent, easily deployed, configured and operated solution that enables law enforcement teams and providers to support the lawful intercept  and tracking of various forms of Internet-based online criminal activity, such as:

•    Lawfully, track, monitor, detect and report on actual or potential online criminal behavior, fraud, or cyber-crime.
•    Pinpoint the location and identify the behavior of the perpetrator - potentially before a crime is committed.
•    Enable remote detection of multiple suspects and scenarios from any location.

When deployed in co-operation with internet service providers in support of the CALEA act, the Data Alchemist system can track, lawfully intercept and disrupt instances of fraudulent financial activity, malicious hacking, phishing or industrial espionage, child pornography transactions or potential pedophile behavior. Data Alchemist works in conjunction with network elements, e.g. routers, within the services provider’s Internet delivery infrastructure to support law enforcement agents and CALEA compliance.

Other forms of cyber-crime and terrorist activity can also be tracked or detected by building threat scenarios representing undesired internet behavior. By encapsulating this criminal behavior or potential behavior into Data Alchemist rules, and utilizing strong activity triggers, the target behavioral scenario can be deployed across multiple Data Alchemist agents and used to monitor suspects who use the Internet to conduct criminal activities. Multiple scenarios can be deployed together and can branch from one scenario to another, based on observed behavior or the control of the law enforcement officer.  Once a particular behavior is observed, triggers can be set to capture that thread of activity as electronic trace evidence that can be used for prosecuting the crime.
