On November 2, Herndon, VA-based Seerist, Inc., an augmented analytics solution for intelligence, threat, and security professionals, and Reston, VA-based Carahsoft Technology Corp. announced a partnership.
Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Seerist’s Master Government Aggregator, making the company’s threat and risk intelligence solution powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and expert human analysis available to the public sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners, NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, Information Technology Enterprise Solutions – Software 2 (ITES-SW2), National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint, National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (NCPA) and OMNIA Partners contracts.
“Partnering with an organization like Carahsoft, who has an immense presence in federal and state agencies, allows Seerist to rapidly scale our ability to support and strengthen their critical threat and security intelligence monitoring and mitigation missions. This strategic collaboration aligns perfectly with our business model,” said John Goolgasian, federal president at Seerist. “The potential within this space is immense, given the scarcity of solutions like ours that can ensure the safety and security of personnel and operations for federal organizations worldwide. We’ve already seen the impact of the partnership and how it can greatly benefit agencies at all levels of government.”
Seerist’s AI platform collects and analyzes data from millions of unique open source intelligence (OSINT) sources and provides integrated AI and expert human analysis. The AI algorithms, combined with information gathered by more than 200 geopolitical and security expert threat analysts, result in real-time threat intelligence and insights that are easy to understand and trust. Seerist’s Foreign Influence and Risk Index (FIRI) solution also allows organizations to analyze and assess Great Power Competition.
Seerist empowers agencies to make well-informed tactical and strategic decisions, ensuring effective navigation of threats and protection of their organization’s assets. The Seerist platform provides near real-time, interactive access to crucial data on developments, offering insights into regional and in-country stability, global geopolitical risk and more. Additionally, Seerist’s AI algorithms proactively identify data trends and predict potential future threats, enabling agencies to take preventative action.
“By adding Seerist’s distinctive AI-driven, human-verified, threat and risk information platform for security, intelligence and operations to our portfolio, we offer a powerful monitoring tool for our government customers,” said Lacey Wean, director of Carahsoft’s geospatial solutions vertical. “In the public sector, crucial decisions must be made swiftly in routine and crisis scenarios. Leveraging Seerist’s solutions provides organizations with unparalleled clarity and confidence. We are excited to make these capabilities available to the public sector through our reseller partner network.”
