WASHINGTON, May 5, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Vivisimo, the leader in Information Optimization, announced today that its Velocity platform plays a major contribution in the information sharing and intelligence gathered by more than 100,000 U.S. intelligence community users. Recent events including the now publicly known raid on the compound where Osama Bin Laden was housed is an example of how platforms like Velocity have significantly improved the cross-domain search and discovery capabilities of thousands of analysts who work for multiple defense and intelligence organizations.  With information from several different sources and residing on different domains, Vivisimo provides analysts instant access and Web 3.0 like search capabilities to retrieve and analyze information vital to counter-terrorism and homeland security efforts. As remarked by press secretary, Jay Carney, during the May 4th White House press conference, "analysts were responsible for piecing together the information that helped find the location of Osama Bin Laden."

"With the recent raid of Osama Bin Laden's compound, credit needs to be given to the unseen heroes who search, analyze and disseminate information found in multiple data silos across many different intelligence and defense organizations," said Bob Carter, vice president and general manager of Federal for Vivisimo. "The defense and intelligence communities recognize the need to improve the 'signal-to-noise' ratio for large disparate data sets as a way to achieve true all-source analysis and deliver timely, objective, and actionable intelligence to our senior decision makers and war fighters. Defense and intelligence analysts rely on Vivisimo to effectively pinpoint critical information that is being produced both within their network as well as public information coming from social media and other Internet sources."
