Use cases
Executive Protection Programs
Security teams use Ontic to aggregate intelligence on threats to executives, consolidating research from multiple sources into one operational view. This eliminates time spent manually searching disparate databases and enables faster threat assessment and protective action.
Workplace Violence Prevention
Organizations identify behavioral indicators of concern and pre-incident warning signs by unifying digital and physical security data. Ontic's platform surfaces these signals in real-time, enabling earlier intervention and risk mitigation.
Corporate Investigations & Case Management
Investigators access complete context on entities from the first search, significantly reducing time spent chasing down information across multiple tools. This allows teams to conduct more thorough investigations and resolve cases faster while maintaining persistent case files.
Federal Agency Threat Intelligence
Government agencies leverage Ontic's OSINT collection and research capabilities to maintain continuous awareness of emerging threats. The platform enables agencies to be immediately alerted to signals of concern relevant to their mission.
