Description
Endeca, a data analytics company, developed software capable of real-time social media monitoring and analysis, which was used by law enforcement agencies, such as the Chicago Police Department, to track and analyze protester activities during events like the 2012 NATO protests. The software allowed authorities to merge social media data with other datasets, such as crime records and 911 calls, enabling targeted surveillance and sentiment analysis. Oracle acquired Endeca in 2011, integrating its data analytics and monitoring capabilities into Oracle's broader goals towards AI-powered surveillance services.
