Description

Founded in 2014 by former Mossad member Doron Cohen, Fifth Dimension became a leading producer of surveillance technology with the backing of notable figures such as former IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz, who served as the company's chairman, and former Mossad deputy head Ram Ben-Barak. The company's systems are employed to analyze vast amounts of data, including social media activity, to identify potential security threats and prevent incidents before they occur. The company specializes in predictive policing tools and advanced data analysis, including sophisticated data processing techniques to identify patterns and correlations based on mass surveillance data. Fifth Dimension collaborated with the Israel Police on a project involving artificial intelligence for law enforcement purposes. This partnership, which did not go through a tender process, involved a pilot program costing about 4 million shekels ($1.1 million) and concluded in 2017. The initiative was described as a "game changer" by Police Chief Roni Alsheikh. However, Fifth Dimension ceased operations due to U.S. sanctions on one of its investors, Viktor Vekselberg, which affected its primary market in the U.S. The company ceased operations in December 2018, after an unsuccessful acquisition bid from NSO Group. At its height, Fifth Dimension had secured $40 million in funding and employed 100 people.
