The intervention/prevention point is during the 'Sense-Making' process after a crisis when the #narratives are forming. Here, we specifically discuss how this can be modeled for predictive analysis with #data from Social Media. In this research, Heather Rupp, Ph.D. the Director of Human Behavioral Science at Arcane International discusses how Social Media narratives created during times of crisis can lead to negative behaviors. The rise in #Antisemitism in the US following October 7th is an example of how the Sensemaking framework can be used in a data #model to predict #behavior for prevention and intervention. #SenseMaking #HumanBehavior #Predictive #SocialMedia #Crisis #Negative #DigitalCognitiveWarfare #AITools #GlobalSecurity #NATO #InfluenceOpinions #Technology #METAPHOR #Protection #BattleForTheBrain #CyberWarfareandSecurity #Intelligence #BeliefSystems #DoD #IDF #IrregularWarfare #CounteringTheFinancingOfTerrorism #Strategy #MiddleEast

On August 24, 2024, two cars exploded outside a synagogue in La Grande Motte, France. With growing polarisation linked to the Israel-Hamas war, attacks on religious sites will very likely be on the rise, as they constitute soft and symbolic targets. Amid a state of rising tensions, especially in multicultural societies, French security forces should heighten their vigilance and reinforce security measures around places of worship. #Osint #Saturday #Synagogue #Explosion #GrandeMotte #France https://lnkd.in/erK_MRf7

Due Diligence: The Office Doesn't Exist In the fast-paced world of #finance, even the most promising #investment opportunities can hide significant #risks. Our case study, “The Office Doesn’t Exist,” uncovered a shocking #reality—an investment opportunity that seemed perfect on paper was nothing more than an elaborate #facade. Through meticulous due diligence, we discovered that the company had no real #operations or physical presence, just a well-crafted #illusion to lure unsuspecting #investors. Key findings: 🔹 Verified that the company’s "office" was non-existent, exposing the entire operation as a #scam. 🔹 Highlighted the crucial role of on-the-ground #verification in due diligence processes. 🔹 Prevented potential #financial losses by identifying #fraud before the investment was made. If you would like to read the full case study, you can find our contact details here: https://lnkd.in/dN4wNZwj At Arcane International, we go beyond the surface, using advanced #investigative techniques to protect our clients from hidden dangers.

"Harvard University must face lawsuit over antisemitism on campus, judge rules..." (read full article here: https://lnkd.in/dQhEK3vQ) In the research titled "Hate Contagion" released by Arcane International on June 25, 2024 , discussion was focused on how social media was used to insite students on campuses, causing them to actively participate in #Antisemetic activities post the 7th October events. Read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/dqPFaCZ5 This paper discussed in length the mechanisms used to mobilize students from 'chanting ideas' into becoming 'useful idiots' who are willing to take violent action against Jews on campus. It's now 'pay-back' time for Harvard as the court approved a class action by the students against the university for not taking measures to protect them! To read the Reuters feed: https://lnkd.in/dQhEK3vQ Clearly, the University should have done much more PRIOR to the events to track social media sentiment, much more DURING the events to lower tensions. With some initiative and technology, they could have used technology to grab forensic evidence to use in their own defense. By the way...evidece is there to actually prove that anti Israel campus protesters were prepped for months by outside activists with dubious funding...an issue that definitely needs more investigation... Read about this in the CNN report on the use of "outside-agitator": https://lnkd.in/dkYbrXhd Conclusion: The loss of reputation and potential loss of donations is estimated well into the multi-millions, a cyber protection suit would have cost them only a fraction of that...advanced social intelligence gathering, expert analysts and forensic evidence gathering is becoming a MUST for institutions that are in risk of targeted incitement like campuses. #CyberDefense #CyberSecurity #FightAntisemetisem #CyberCrime #SafeCampuses
