Government and defense organizations are faced with a growing amount of digital media in the form of user-generated content (UGC) that can provide important mission insights. From cell phone videos and live streams to social media posts and drone footage, attackers are increasingly using online content to coordinate activities, spread propaganda and influence behavior. But extracting information from these unstructured media using separate tools and workflows can slow analysis for time-critical operations.
For mission owners, speed is only part of the challenge. Sensitive videos, metadata, and derived information often cannot be moved into generic SaaS environments or processed outside of approved infrastructure. Airis Labs, powered by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), helps agencies accelerate AI-powered media consumption while keeping analytics close to the data in secure, sovereign and classified cloud environments. Airis Labs converts authorized videos, images, audio, etc.
