Transform Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs); UK's First Technology Line of Defence

SYNALOGiK Innovative Solutions Limited成立于2018年，是一家总部位于英国的科技公司，由数据科学、情报、安全和调查领域的专家创立。该公司基于云的软件Scout的Alpha版本已经开发出来，并成功部署在公共和私人组织中。该项目与西英格兰大学(UWE)、雷丁大学以及一些私营和公共部门生态系统合作伙伴合作，旨在改变可疑活动报告(SAR)制度。英国容易受到广泛的经济犯罪和恐怖活动的影响，估计每年耗资1370亿GB，随着犯罪分子适应安全、情报和执法对策，威胁和风险变得更加复杂。并利用技术进步来避免被发现。国家犯罪局(NCA)的可疑活动报告(SAR)制度是英国的第一道防线，但令人遗憾的是，目前复杂的手动系统被认为存在缺陷。缺乏重要的功能，包括对紧急程度、风险评估和威胁级别、传播过程和证据收集程序进行分类，意味着组织越来越无法应对日益增长的SARS；提交的SARS同比增长20%。该项目将开发一个先进的技术平台，能够将当前的调查过程从手动数据仓库搜索格式转变为自动数据分析过程和流量控制功能。通过开发基于ML/AI的分析和自动化能力，Synalogik将为当局创建丰富的情报图景，支持作战指挥官的即时关键决策，以保护公众。

Formed in 2018, SYNALOGiK Innovative Solutions Limited is a UK based technology company, founded by experts in data science, intelligence, security and investigation. Alpha-versions of the company's cloud-based software, SCOUT, have been developed and successfully deployed within public and private organisations.This project, in collaboration with the University of West England (UWE), University of Reading and a number of private and public sector ecosystem partners, seeks to transform the Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) regime.The UK is vulnerable to a wide range of economic crime and terrorist activity with an estimated cost of £137bn per-year, with threats and risks becoming more complex as criminals adapt to Security, Intelligence and Law-enforcement responses, and exploit technology advancements to avoid detection.The National Crime Agency (NCA) Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) regime is the UK's first line-of-defence, but regrettably the current complicated manual-driven system is considered deficient. An absence of significant functionality including classification of urgency, risk-assessment and threat levels, dissemination processes and evidential gathering procedures means there is growing inability for organisations to cope with the increasing volumes of SARs; 20% Year-on-Year growth in submitted SARs.This project will see the development of an advanced technology Platform, capable of transforming current investigation processes from manual data repository searching formats into automated data analytics processes and flow control functionality. This will be applied throughout all SAR stages incorporating automatic prioritising, categorisation, and dissemination functionality to rapidly evaluate criminal activity and distribute to the most relevant private/public authorities.Through the development of ML/AI-based analysis and automation capabilities, Synalogik will create an enriched intelligence picture for authorities, supporting instant critical decision-making for operational commanders to safeguard the public.
