Description
Paladion was an India-based company that develops surveillance tools for use by governments, law enforcement agencies, and corporations. Among its offerings is an SSL Interception and Decryption System, designed to perform covert man-in-the-middle attacks, enabling the monitoring of encrypted communications, including banking transactions and Gmail. Paladion marketed a link analysis tool that maps relationships between individuals, identifying key connections within groups for extended surveillance. This tool integrates with the client's Internet Monitoring System (IMS), a scalable framework capable of nationwide surveillance, offering real-time analysis, long-term data storage, and proactive detection of new targets for deep intelligence gathering. Paladion maintained offices in India, the U.S, Oman, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. The company was acquired by Atos in 2020.
