Intelligence website used by law enforcement website defaced in apparent hack

/in


An intelligence website that provides apps and facial recognition technologies used by law enforcement was hacked on Sunday.

ODIN Intelligence took on a completely different look on the home page of its website just before it was taken down. Asterisks spelled out the acronym “ACAB,” known as “all cops are b******s,” according to a screenshot taken by TechCrunch. Below, a caption clarified it was directed at “all (cyber) cops.”

“No nations, no borders!” the caption went on to read. “We are all illegal!”

The hacker’s message went on to claim that “all data and backups have been shredded” among three archive files that totaled more than 16 gigabytes of data.

This comes four days after a report that an app produced by the company SweepWizard had leaked confidential information regarding police raids. The app is used by departments to help organize raids involving large swaths of officers. Over many years, the app had published geographic coordinates of suspects’ homes, the times and locations of raids, demographics, contact information, and occasionally even suspects’ Social Security numbers freely on the internet.

As a result, ODIN founder and chief executive Erik McCauley was quoted as largely dismissing the report in a quotation left on the homepage by the hackers.

“And so, we decided to hack them,” their message read.

ODIN also provides a service called SONAR, or the Sex Offender Notification and Registration system, which helps departments manage their sex offender registries. It also offers facial recognition technology to help officers identify alleged offenders.

Key takeaways

  • AI currently allows computers to manage basic tasks so people have time for other things.
  • As AI technology advances, it will take over more complex tasks, improving safety and efficiency.
  • Many companies are entering this space, but IBM, Micron and CrowdStrike are a few of the leaders in this industry.

When you think of artificial intelligence, you might imagine a world where robots and computers run the show. But looking at how AI is used in today’s world, from voice-activated assistants to virtual assistants answering phones, you will recognize how this technology is improving our lives. Here is a deeper dive into artificial intelligence and the companies leading the way right now.

What is artificial intelligence?

Artificial intelligence is the concept of teaching a computer to think and act independently. That includes rational speech, complex problem-solving, speech recognition, decision making, and initiating actions. The goal of artificial intelligence, also known as AI, is to get a computer to think independently and make better decisions than a human does.

The current state of AI is known as narrow artificial intelligence because AI systems are relegated to performing one task or a set of related tasks. For example, virtual assistants like Alexa or Siri can turn on music or answer questions. Robotic vacuums learn the best route for cleaning your floor, and self-driving cars can get you from point A to point B.

Companies are currently in the process of creating AI with broader abilities. But most of the efforts surrounding the development of AI are focused on what it can do now, not what it can do in the future. But the universe of AI capabilities only stands to expand.

What benefits does AI offer?

Artificial intelligence is a technology that promises to make daily life a lot easier, eliminate the need for someone to do repetitive, low-level tasks, and improve safety. AI has sped up the production of everything from automobiles to healthcare and finance. AI operations require less oversight and frees people up to do work that AI can’t handle.
