Data Dissemination

Challenge: A government client was flying digital video files from a combat environment to the US for processing and analysis – a four-to-five-day undertaking. The government needed to move the files in a more timely and secure manner.

Solution: i3 ICS’s IT solutions team created a tailored, end-to-end solution that utilized state-of-the-art file transfer technology and industry leading clustered digital storage capabilities to move the files over satellite links in a matter of hours. The digital video files are now processed and analyzed within hours of being collected, and then analyzed timely.
