Analysts at the National Security Agency are using an artificial intelligence-powered platform from AI company Primer to look for cyberattackers and understand leaks of classified data before these cause harm to U.S. citizens, The Washington Times reported Tuesday.

Officials with the company said their AI-based platform helps analysts detect indicators of cyberthreats across social media, monitor tech capabilities and influence operations of adversaries and track weapons and illicit finance.

What NSA analysts use it for is to augment the [cybersecurity signals] that they’re getting,” Primer Federal President Mark Brunner told the publication. “We provide a different color to that, that helps them connect the dots as they’re trying to understand what’s happening in cybersecurity and any potential attack vectors.”

Primer hopes to use its two key offerings – Primer Command and Primer Delta – to develop an all-source intelligence platform to provide the U.S. intelligence community with a new set of AI-based tools, according to the report.
