DESCRIPTION
A government authority in San Diego, California is seeking a vendor to provide web-based open-source intelligence and investigative services. The solution should enable investigators to pivot from a single data point, such as a username, email address, phone number, or image, to develop a comprehensive digital identity profile.
The required capabilities include cross-referencing aliases across social media platforms and online communities; identifying reused usernames, profile photos, writing patterns, and behavioral indicators; and aggregating information from open-source and proprietary repositories. Relevant sources may include public records, social media, breach databases, infostealer logs, and dark web content. The solution should also support data deduplication and normalization, historical searches of archived social media content, domain registration records, and prior breach exposures.
The investigative platform must be web-based and accessible to authorized agency personnel. It should provide an intuitive interface for analysts without advanced technical backgrounds, as well as API access for integration with existing agency systems. Questions must be submitted by September 15, 2026.
