Russian, Chinese and Arabic Open Source Collection Intelligence Techniques
The common narrative is that researching online in a foreign language requires a native speaker - when none are available, teams often rely completely on AI to tackle this.
We demonstrate that researching online in Chinese, Russian or Arabic using I-Intelligence's methodology is actually quite easy when adopting an investigative mindset and mastering the basics.

Presented by IAFISWednesday, 22 October 2025
9:10-10:00 AM Session A
How AI Drives Proactive Insight Detection in Multi-Source Investigations
AI is becoming a powerful force multiplier for investigations, especially when it can analyze evidential data alongside external intelligence in a single platform. While intercept data remains essential, investigators are increasingly expected to contextualize it with fragmented sources like financial records, mobile forensics, OSINT, public data sources and more; this session showcases how multi-layered AI cuts through data complexity, featuring Sentry, an always-on detection and triage tool that proactively surfaces critical insights as they unfold. Capabilities will be demonstrated through a real-world case study surrounding financial fraud and vehicle theft, along with an overview of the AI development principles and security measures required to support them.

From Prompt to Breakthrough: Understanding Generative AI for High-Risk Investigations
Generative AI offers powerful new ways to interact with evidential and intelligence data, but not all GenAI is built for the demands of high-risk investigations. This technical deep dive explores how 4Sight’s investigative assistant, Iris, integrates GenAI responsibly and effectively, from its flexible, multi-agent architecture to its use of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), semantic search, and agentic workflows; learn what’s happening behind the scenes and what’s required to deploy GenAI in a secure, fully on-premises environment. This session covers design considerations, testing and evaluation, and practical compliance with emerging AI regulations, plus a live demonstration of investigative AI in action.
