Last fetched
Danaide is a threat actor tracked in WhisperGraph's MITRE ATT&CK corpus, observed using 0 techniques.
Description
Danaide S.A. is a Buenos Aires–based technology firm that supplies UltraIP, the facial-recognition platform that powers the city’s Fugitive Facial Recognition System (SNRP), which was installed in 2019. Independent investigations point to a close technical tie with Russia’s NTechLab: UltraIP appears in the partners section of NTechLab’s Russian-language website, and multiple reports note that the system "reportedly" runs on NTechLab’s Find Face engine. Danaide markets UltraIP as "analytics of our own design" on its corporate site, but the unresolved provenance has intensified legal challenges and human rights concerns after documented cases of wrongful arrests and the surveillance of activists.
