Threat Intelligence Case Studies and Testimonials

Learn how organizations and clients are leveraging S7 ONE threat intelligence to monitor, plan, and react to risks around the globe.

Guinea Alumina Corporation
  • What security concerns or risks do you have to deal with in your day-to-day operations?

    Mostly protests, criminality and hazard-related incidents. We need to be made quickly aware of any developments that can drive people to protest, block roads, rails or transport networks which can seriously impact our operations.

  • What other challenges do you face when managing different sites and supply chains over such a large area? How has our threat intelligence helped with this?

    Criminality related incidents such as theft or attempted theft are the most common and protests that can be anything from local communities to politically influenced riots. The latter is more common in urban areas such as Boke, Kolaboui and Kamsar to name a few.

    The threat intelligence platform has helped by providing warnings about political developments and/or infrastructural issues.

  • How has the experience been so far?

    So far, everything is going great, especially in some cases where we observe local issues. They aren’t often picked up by news agencies, or posted on social media, but we need to send this type of incident detail with as much compelling details and evidence as we can to our operations team for input.

  • What advice would you give to any extraction company looking to start using threat intelligence in their security operations?

    I would highly recommend using this threat intelligence platform as it provides a very clear picture of what’s happening all around us and gives us a better understanding of what we should watch out for.

King Safety and Security (KSS)
  • Could you tell us a little bit about King Safety and Security?

    King Safety and Security (KSS) was founded in 2014. Having already spent a decade in the private security industry, I founded KSS due to increasing demand for services that I couldn’t supply single-handedly. With the inception of KSS, I began building a brand as well as recruiting and training operatives who reflected my ethos and approach to protective services.

    KSS’s senior management comprises a blend of military, police and private sector security backgrounds. Recruits are sourced from the same streams along with more specialist organisations or units, so we can be confident in their training and professional approach.

  • How has the platform been able to improve your situational awareness?

    KSS has ongoing and periodic operational commitments in the UK, Europe, US, and the Middle East. Thanks to the integration of the Sigma7 Threat Intelligence platform, we now have a 360-degree operational awareness for our teams on the ground.

    From our ops room, we can disseminate accurate, timely intelligence relevant to our assets, dramatically increasing the level of proactive protection we afford our clients. In simple terms, it’s like removing the blindfold.

  • How has the experience been so far?

    Working with Sigma7 Threat Intelligence is a pleasure. The customer service and technical support have been excellent. The team truly understands the demands placed upon us and how much is potentially at stake in our operational environments, and do everything they can to support and enhance our GSOC efficacy through their expert analysts and infrastructure.

    Our partnership has undoubtedly helped to set us apart in terms of operational capability.
