"Due to increased threats of terrorism and organized crime, we have seen a corresponding interest in data retention solutions by law enforcement agencies, telcos, and ISPs," says Paul Di Leo, Vice President of Global Sales. According to Di Leo, the explosive growth within the sector is leading to additional hiring of sales representatives and support personnel in South and Central America and Asia. "We're currently working on hundreds of deals in our pipeline."

A Unique Solution

The Intelligentias Retentia(R) Data Retention Suite is the only solution on the market with proven scalability -- able to capture, index, normalize, encrypt, and compress over 10 billion data records per day and to retrieve query results from data pools as large as three trillion records in near real time. Retentia is not based on a relational database but is instead a file system built specifically to perform massive volume data indexing. It was specifically designed for use by telecommunications companies such as ISPs and telcos, law enforcement and intelligence agencies, and enterprise customers. Without the overhead of a relational database, Retentia can work faster, with less hardware, and is more adaptable to the needs of diverse users.

"The timing is right for our solution, as law enforcement agencies are requesting that the communications service providers maintain massive data repositories to help catch criminals and terrorists," says Ian Rice, CEO of Intelligentias. "Retentia captures, indexes, encrypts, and compresses trillions of call data records (CDRs) and Internet Protocol detail records (IPDRs) in near real-time from virtually any network element -- servers, switches, routers, applications and logs. And our Web interface helps pull other disparate data records together seamlessly for law enforcement -- essentially enabling a Google-like platform for data forensics."
