Consultancy and analysis

  • Our expertise in your hands

    Vistalworks’ founders and analysts have world-leading expertise in detecting and effectively communicating insights from data. We’re subject matter leaders in analysis of online harms, including illicit trade, misinformation and disinformation, and specific high-risk online criminal behaviours.

    Because we are constantly exposed to the highly evasive and innovative ways criminals adapt to enforcement activities and changes in policies and laws, we can help ensure your organisation’s mitigations are fit for purpose - whether you are a regulated business or technology platform, enforcement agency, or a government authority.

    From a single one-off project to review your in-house analysis capabilities, to ongoing large-scale intelligence analysis, Vistalworks is here to help you stay ahead of the harmful online activities that threated businesses, customers, economies and society.

  • Identify risks and threats in your business data

    Using secure, regular bulk transfers of your organisation’s data, our analysts will work to an agreed risk scoring and prioritisation plan, to alert your agents or customer services teams to the risks requiring an urgent intervention.

    The types of data we currently analyse for commercial clients include ecommerce and marketplace listings, social media posts and messaging, search engine indexes, IP protected and/or regulated product information.

    Our text and large language model analysis processes can be applied to multi-language datasets, including English, Russian, Ukrainian, emojis and all European languages.

    We also deploy statistical, ML and other quantitative analysis approaches that reflect the teams’ backgrounds in Cyber Security and Financial Services.

  • Inspire and challenge your analysts

    It can be isolating and demoralising to work in online harm and crime analysis, and the sensitive nature of the work means professional development opportunities are limited. Vistalworks can work with single in-house analysts or entire teams to take a challenge based approach to finding new threats and then together developing realistic solutions and processes that are based on in-house capabilities.

  • Evolve your in-house capabilities

    Vistalworks can help you derisk and future-proof your capability planning, whether you are building an entirely new intelligence or analysis team, or looking to streamline and consolidate your many tools and activities in-house.

    The art and science of extracting time critical insights from overwhelmingly large or inconsistent datasets in about more than buying software or outsourcing to an agency.

    Our highly experienced analysts and solution creators can help you move past dependence on a costly commercial tools and develop the in-house capability to detect and respond to a fast moving and constantly adapting set of threat characteristics.

  • Develop scaling and processes

    The transition from person-sized ad hoc analysis to large scale machine learning and computational analysis is challenging for any organisation. The precious balance of art and science can be lost, or distrust in the intelligence’s quality and veracity creeps in. Vistalworks can help you plan and manage an iterative approach to introducing and testing automation processes, while ensuring your exiting high standards of actionability and trust do not drop.

  • Prioritise action and results

    So what? has always been the most critical question in producing truly actionable intelligence. We can work with your organisation to develop scoring and prioritisation rules or processes, to ensure that analysts are delivering actionable insights across the organisation, and are doing so using consistent, unbiased and replicable methodologies.
