Able Danger, Data Mining Update XII
For those slogging through my posts this will be a present surprise – short and sweat. The Boston Globe has a good article out on a precursor program to Able Danger using Data Mining. One bit of advise – the SW ‘expert’ who claims Data Mining could not identify a target is full of it. Data Mining has been used to sift the millions of bits of information captured hourly through our signal intelligence assets. Of course it takes an analyst to pull data together to make the final determination – but without key data the analysts cannot do their job as well.
Enjoy.
