Description
NICE offers surveillance and analytics tools that enable agencies to monitor and analyze large volumes of data, especially to law enforcement agencies. These tools include advanced video surveillance systems, voice and data analytics software, and communication interception capabilities. NICE is also a longtime collaborator of the Milan-based Hacking Team. According to a Buzzfeed investigation based on emails leaked by Wikileaks, the two companies exchanged nearly 3,000 emails between 2010 and 2015, discussing business opportunities in countries such as Uganda, Mexico, Colombia, Israel, and Finland. NICE is one of Hacking Team's largest partners, frequently acting as an intermediary, connecting Hacking Team with state police and intelligence agencies seeking surveillance tools and advanced malware capabilities. NICE Actimize, a subsidiary of NICE Systems, has developed SURVEIL-X Behaviour, an AI-powered solution designed to provide organizations with a comprehensive behavioral profile of employees. Integrated into the SURVEIL-X Holistic Employee Conduct Surveillance suite, this tool actively surveils employees and analyzes detailed data from hundreds of sources, such as HR systems, customer complaints, and access control logs. NICE sold its Physical Security Business Unit (PSBU) to private equity firm Battery Ventures for up to $100 million. The PSBU, rebranded as Qognify, specializes in video analytics and physical security information management. This followed an earlier sale of its cyber and intelligence division to Elbit Systems.
