ActiveDuty System to Provide Actionable Intelligence on
Global Stage
HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL -- April 18, 2017 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire --
Wellness Center USA, Inc. (OTCQB:
WCUI), today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary,
StealthCo, Inc., dba Stealth Mark, is expanding its
anti-counterfeiting ActiveDuty System to provide actionable
intelligence in the worlds of money laundering and human
trafficking/slavery. The scope of the work is being conducted in
collaboration with prominent organizations, and is classified in
nature.
Human trafficking, believed to be the third-largest criminal
activity in the world, is a form of human slavery, which includes
forced labor, domestic servitude and commercial sex trafficking. It
is a heinous crime that exploits the most vulnerable in society
with reported figures of up to 27 million people, many of whom are
here in the United States.
Recent government estimates show that money laundering in
current US Dollars is $800 billion to $2 trillion. Thats 2% to 5%
of the global GDP. By its very nature, much like human trafficking,
the deeper the dirty money gets into the international banking
system, the more difficult it is to identify its origins. Because
of the clandestine nature of these illicit activities, it has been
difficult to estimate the total economic impact. With the new
covert ActiveDuty it will be possible to be pro-active, instead of
reactive, and start seeing the world through a new lens by creating
strategy and an actionable global view that puts us ahead of those
who conspire against us.
When we created our ActiveDuty system, it was designed knowing
that the advancement of the internet has made the selling of
illicit goods online easy and very accessible. We knew we needed to
build a powerful weapon to help defend against that threat,
explained Lee Anne Patterson, VP of Sales and Marketing for Stealth
Mark. Some of our initial ActiveDuty reports have provided us
powerful insights demonstrating that the links between
counterfeiting, human trafficking and money laundering are heavily
entwined. The same tools that we developed to fight the online
battle of counterfeiting are providing a global understanding of
the inter-workings of criminals that move in these circles. The
opportunity to support the efforts of organizations and law
enforcement to pursue criminals in this fashion is something that
we are excited to be a part of and we believe this work will be
impactful on numerous battle lines, Patterson added.
Development of the ActiveDuty platform for covert applications
has already begun, with initial deployment planned to begin in the
next 30 to 45 days.
Stealth Marks ActiveDuty System is a proprietary Digital Threat
Assessment Platform powered by mPathDiscovery. The platform
utilizes leading-edge algorithmic human behavior modeling
technology called Digital Sociology to provide actionable
intelligence that will provide clients much more than just data.
Rather, it will make available a comprehensive and global umbrella
of strategic information regarding potential threats and illicit
activity.
The ActiveDuty System resolves the problem that, at a strategic
level, conventional methods for understanding the potential threat
is not enough. It is essential to be aware of patterns of behavior,
evaluate threat strengths and weaknesses over time, and explore key
events and personas that drive the behavior of a threat. This is
where a comprehensive understanding of aspects outside of the
typical technical domain is essential to compliment the tactical
and operational levels of cyber intelligence.
Secondly, geopolitical context, human networks, and world events
can all greatly influence the development of cyber indicators.
Together, these two concepts provide a strategic level, common
cyber intelligence picture, and empower organizations with a more
holistic understanding of the overall threat landscape.
Rick Howard, CEO of Stealth Mark commented, As we build
resources to wage this point-counterpoint battle against
counterfeiting, slavery and money laundering, whether its our
Intelligent Microparticles or our ActiveDuty System, its important
to remember that while all of this is very technical and highly
sophisticated with statistical data that is valuable, at the end of
the day we are talking about peoples lives - children, sons,
daughters, wives that need help. Its important for humanity that we
are successful.
All information regarding the organizations, the application(s),
use, and methodologies, along with the Stealth Mark technology in
use, shall remain confidential per request until its official
deployment.
