Abstract:
Knowledge about the structure and organization of terrorist networks is important for both terrorism investigation and the development of effective strategies to prevent terrorist attacks. Theory from the knowledge management field plays an important role in dealing with terrorist information. Knowledge management processes, tools, and techniques can help intelligence analysts in various ways when trying to make sense of the vast amount of data being collected. This paper presents the latest research on the CrimeFighter toolbox for counterterrorism. CrimeFighter provides advanced mathematical models and software tools to assist intelligence analysts in harvesting, filtering, storing, managing, analyzing, structuring, mining, interpreting, and visualizing terrorist information.
