Technology Innovation for Large-Scale Vetting
Case Study: Five Eyes Vetting Agency
Fivecast MATRIX is a proven solution used by a Five Eyes Government vetting agency that processes 100s of security clearances daily. Fivecast MATRIX drives efficiencies by automating data collection and streamlining analysis to quickly map digital footprints and surface risk indicators. Configurable risk rules and detectors are applied consistently across all applicants, resulting in reliable and trusted assessment reports for vetting officers ahead of interviews.
Fivecast MATRIX has delivered significant efficiency and cost-saving benefits to this agency. Previously, the digital footprint search for each vetting applicant would take at least one hour. Fivecast MATRIX saved the agency 35,000 hours in the first 4 months of operation.
Global Vetting Challenges
Vetting agencies face many challenges stemming from the increased demand to process large volumes of risk assessments, screening, and vetting cases, including:
- Complex threat landscapes - geopolitical instability, social unrest, and the rise of extremism are all increasing the complexity of vetting investigations.
- Limited time and resources - analysts face digital blind spots, constrained by high workloads and limited ability to perform detailed manual online analysis.
- Access to information - online data volumes are rapidly expanding, with social media users at 4.95 billion globally.
AI-driven open-source intelligence (OSINT) has become critical for enhancing large-scale vetting efficiency.
Fivecast MATRIX – Innovating Large-Scale Screening & Vetting Processes
Fivecast MATRIX has been purpose-built for large-scale vetting and screening across the government, policing, and corporate sectors. The solution originated from a partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense in a US $9M project. Fivecast MATRIX uses the power of generative AI to automate and streamline large-scale risk assessments and is proven to be more than 20 times faster than manual screening methods. Key capabilities include automatic identity resolution, broad collection of publicly and commercially available information, risk assessment, and scoring capabilities that enable vetting analysts to focus on the few targets that require human review.
