Zignal Labs
Events We Are Sponsoring
Join Zignal Labs, Reality Defender and Carahsoft for a discussion on how the threat environment facing campus security teams has evolved – and why traditional approaches alone are no longer enough.
Security leaders today face a growing convergence of physical threats, doxxing campaigns, coordinated online activity, synthetic media and rapidly emerging situations that often begin in the information environment before becoming operational challenges.
In national security and force protection missions, understanding these signals early has long been essential. Increasingly, the same principles are becoming relevant to campus security, athletic event protection, executive protection and public safety operations.
In this webinar, attendees will learn:
- How the campus threat environment has evolved and why traditional monitoring approaches frequently miss early indicators
- What Protective Intelligence is and how it serves as the third ring of security alongside physical and digital security programs
- How multimodal fusion of text, imagery, video and narrative signals offers a more complete threat picture
- How AI-generated deepfakes and synthetic media are being used to target institutions, public figures and campus communities – and how automated detection can identify them earlier
- What early warning looks like in practice for game days, major campus events, VIP visits and elevated threat situations
- Why security teams operating from a shared intelligence layer respond faster and make better operational decisions
Zignal Labs, Janes, Fivecast, Recorded Future and Carahsoft are excited to present this Executive Briefing at DoDIIS 2026, where government and industry leaders will explore how open-source intelligence is driving faster, more informed decision-making across today's defense and intelligence missions.
As the speed of modern conflict continues to reshape intelligence operations, publicly available and commercially sourced intelligence is becoming the "INT of first resort" for delivering early warning, operational awareness and strategic insight. Join our expert panel to discuss how AI-enabled exploitation, commercial GEOINT, social media analysis, cyber threat intelligence and data fusion are helping analysts identify threats faster while addressing challenges such as trust, verification, analyst workflow modernization and balancing automation with human judgment.
Attendees will learn:
- How to balance automation with human judgment while ensuring trust, verification and analyst confidence in AI-driven intelligence
- Best practices for integrating commercial intelligence into existing defense and intelligence architectures
- How AI-enabled exploitation, commercial GEOINT, social media analysis, cyber threat intelligence and data fusion are transforming modern intelligence workflows
- How defense organizations are operationalizing OSINT to accelerate mission-critical decision-making
