InfoTame - KGB intelligent software
I know that there are a number of US law firms are actively using InfoTame for major litigation work. Someone told me it was used during the discovery process for the Firestone lawsuits.
Apparently, the software is so powerful at finding hidden patterns and links in unstructured data that lots of InfoTame clients are keeping quiet about the software in case they lose this "secret weapon" to competitors.
There are also rumours that President Putin used InfoTame during the recent Russian elections to glean information on opponents. This would not be surprising given the fact that he once ran the KGB...
InfoTame is not unique, however. The National Security Agency in the United States probably uses something similar for their Echelon spy system.
