Encryption and OTT apps limit the value of lawful eavesdropping tools like wiretaps, but mobile networks offer a powerful engine for new insights: real-time geographical awareness using high-accuracy location.
As with the broader missions of the law enforcement and intelligence communities, lawful intelligence must balance investigative rigor with the need to preserve privacy and other civil protections.
In investigations, lives depend on the reliability of lawful intelligence platforms. To help analysts maximize the value of all available data, these platforms require advanced testing and continuous updating.
Lawful interception of voice by LEAs harkens back to a time when unencrypted phone calls over a wireline carrier network defined electronic communication. In the smartphone era, other methods have proliferated.
By gathering, collating, and drawing possible conclusions from all available information, AI and ML can act as resource multipliers for lawful and location intelligence, just as they do for network operations.
Encryption and OTT apps limit the value of lawful eavesdropping tools like wiretaps, but mobile networks offer a powerful engine for new insights: real-time geographical awareness using high-accuracy location.
