Overview

The company’s first advanced line of product is the "COGITO". Relying on unique and proprietary technology the system is designed to identify malicious intent in various settings and scenarios. The "COGITO1002" is an automated kiosk-like station that enables the profiling and screening of passengers based on biofeedback indications. SDS develops and markets the "COGITO1002" to be used by law enforcement agencies for the detection of suspects harboring malicious intent at border control and/or other checkpoints.
The COGITO1003 is a stationary “Internal Threat” and Pre Employment and employee integrity screening system. The COGITO4M is a military grade product aimed at the Field Intelligence of Military units, Police and Law Enforcement units. This technology was successfully tested by US Governmental Agencies, Israeli Security agencies and being use both by commercial and governmental customers in Israel, United States of America, Central America and South Africa.
SDS Mission: our mission is to assist law enforcement agencies all over the world in their war against local and international sophisticated organized crime and terrorism by providing innovative solutions that can be deployed today, while adding value to our investors.
Technology
The SDS core technology is based on proprietary software; it is an “expert system” that emulates an investigator’s Modus Operandi (MO) by incorporating artificial intelligence techniques and algorithms. All hardware elements are best-of-breed off-the-shelf third-party components. The technical solution is comprised of a front-end, the ‘Test Station’, and a back-office where multiple-station and multiple-site data is stored, managed and distributed.
"COGITO" is a fully automated system not requiring human control and/or operation.
All of the COGITO products are an all in one unit which includes BIOMETRIC and Documentation Verification features in addition to the interrogation capabilities. The COGITO technology enables conducting hundred of interrogations without help of professional interrogator interviewers. In 5 minutes test the system can identify terrorists, employees who has hostile intents, criminals, smugglers or collaborators and direct further interrogation. The operation of the system is simple and requires only 2 hours training of any soldier with basic computer knowledge.
The COGITO1002 Test Station serves as the point-of-contact with the individual being examined. The Test Station features an ergonomic design and is adapted to the environmental conditions (limited space, necessity to queue, strong background nois etc.) common to border control points.
The COGITO1003 is an “Internal Threat” prevention and detection system which was developed for pre employment and repetitive employees screening. It is also fully automated system and require no involvement of professional interrogators or interviewers.
The COGITO4M is a military grade Rapid Intelligence Interrogation Solution. This new mobile system is already being used by intelligence units in Israel. The system enable military units to efficiently interrogate hostile or indifferent civil population. Using the COGITO4M will enable military unit which might have no knowledge of the local spoken language to identify who among the civilian is a wanted terrorist, where there might be nearby ambush or mine trap and above all – save lives.
All mobile unites can be connected to central command and control system that collect all data from all mobile stations. These data gathering process enable the self learning capabilities of the system to ever improving system performance. COGITO4M is already serving armies and police units and has proven its capabilities in actual fields of operation.
The "COGITO" Back-Office
The back-office is designed to manage and control all the test stations in a given site or nation wide operation or even international global operation. It serves as the central unit that stores all test histories, examinees profiles and biometrics and is responsible for system administration, data distribution and interfacing to external systems and databases. The back-office is the main data store for all stations in a single site. The back-office servers, database storage and network elements are based on standard industrial hardware components. This center is also responsible to the auto learning capability of the system which allow continues learning of behavior patterns of individuals and segments of the population. The back-office is designed for high availability and best-of-breed data security.
Solution
One of several lessons learned from the September 11 (9/11) tragedy is that sophisticated international terrorists might not carry explosives or weapons on their person or in their belongings while traveling or entering the target country. SDS has shouldered the challenge of offering a solution to this problem.
SDS solution is an automated decision making system capable of collecting and analyzing psycho-physiological indications and cross-referencing these indications with additional objective (and available) information.
The system can isolate those suspects that qualify for secondary investigation by trained investigators. The system performs this with a high level of accuracy and reliability (not more then 4% false alarm). Once an individual is tagged as ‘suspect’ he will be directed to further questioning by the appropriate authority. Moreover, the SDS concept is supported and enhanced by knowledge acquired from many case studies of suicide bombings in Israel and elsewhere, gathered by Israeli authorities and the academic community.
The flexible design concept of the system allows SDS to function as a ‘multi-purpose application’, which can be easily adapted to different environments. In this manner, the system can be used for counter terrorism as well as for additional border control applications such as immigration, drug enforcement, and entry to high-security buildings, etc.
The SDS concept is supported and enhanced by knowledge acquired and assimilated from the analysis of thousands of case studies related to suicide bombers in Israel and worldwide, gathered by Israeli authorities and the academic community.
