IDENTIFY ACTIONABLE INTELLIGENCE!

Welcome to the National Community!

Actionable Intelligence Through a Nationwide Fusion Center! The THREADS™ platform is the first of its kind, introducing a community for law enforcement and authorized corrections staff! The community allows law enforcement and authorized corrections staff a way to analyze a central pool of data without compromising the integrity of data or the integrity of an investigation. Identify inmates stealing and sharing PINs, identify inmates talking to each other by calling the same phone number on the outside - even from different correctional facilities, run pattern and frequency statistics for inmates across multiple jails, receive notifications when inmates from other facilities contact numbers on your bounce lists, receive information related to if any inmate in the country (using Securus) has attempted to contact your witness or the cell phone of the murdered victim, and much more.

Join the community and put THREADS™ to work for you, analyzing communications intelligence nationwide! Access the following community use agreement and send it to your Securus account manager today! www.securustech.net/threads

THREADS™ Communication Timeline’s

The THREADS™ platform allows investigators to determine a timeline of communication records, associa-

tions, mail cover, events, and user defined entries. This feature can be run for a target, enterprise, site, or

communication subscription for information from a single investigation, correctional facility, or even nation-

wide! THREADS™ users are able to import cell phone data via a UFED device (cell forensics extraction de-

vice) and view a timeline of cell phone data in addition to inmate phone calls automatically imported from

SCP into the THREADS™ platform. Timeline data is presented in several user friendly, visual format that is

easily manipulated with no change to the native data, allowing you to customize your intelligence to outline
