Attensity Chosen by the Department of Homeland Security to Help Protect America

DHS Begins Immediate Implementation of Attensity's Software

PALO ALTO, Calif., January 30, 2006 - Attensity, the innovator in Text Analytics software solutions, announced today that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is implementing Attensity's software immediately as part of the agency's unified effort to secure the United States.

DHS focuses on protecting against, responding to, and helping deter threats and hazards to the U.S., including terrorist attacks. The agency works to ensure safe and secure borders, welcome lawful immigrants and visitors, and promote the free flow of commerce.

"We are honored to add DHS to our growing base of government and business clients," Craig D. Norris, Attensity's chief executive officer, said. "The efforts of DHS are critical to the protection of American citizens, and we believe the department's selection of Attensity's solution validates our strategy of straightforward integration with existing technological implementations."

U.S. intelligence, security, and law enforcement agencies use Attensity's solutions to mine intelligence contained in freeform text, which comprises the vast majority of information collected.

Traditionally, investigators and analysts would index and warehouse unstructured documents for later keyword text search, or categorize the documents into taxonomies as they arrive to assist with analyst search and review. With Attensity's software, agencies now automate the transformation of unstructured text - found in everything from emails to manifests - into structured, relational data. The results speed to the surface trends, anomalies, patterns and associations for more timely and precise responses.

As an example, in about one minute on a standard laptop, Attensity's software can extract every fact and every linguistic relationship from all 1,500 pages of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace, producing more than 300,000 extractions.
