DataCapable, a leader in advanced outage and threat detection

AI-powered Threat Detector platform. The platform’s remarkable
capability to identify and verify a shooting incident at a rally
for President Trump ahead of major news outlets demonstrates its
unparalleled potential to deliver real-time, life-saving

At 6:14 PM EDT on July 13th, 2024, DataCapable’s Threat Detector
received its first indication of the shooting in Butler, PA,
shortly after the shots were fired at 6:11:30 PM EDT. This rapid
detection highlights the platform's ability to provide timely and
critical information, enabling swift response measures that can
protect assets, people, and reputation. Threat Detector identified
social media posts and other sources, showcasing its potential for
early warning and prevention—a vital asset for any organization

awareness. Threat Detector’s strength lies in its ability to
swiftly identify potential threats from a vast array of open data
sources, including social media, continuously monitored and
