Scope-OBSERVER can be used to identify links between
other entities based on the following types of link
support information: - Target to Phone – a target can be linked to one
or more phone numbers;
- Phone to Phone – a call can be linked to two phone
numbers;
- Phone to Address – a phone can be linked to one or
more addresses.
Scope-OBSERVER uses this information to identify links
not only about the phones but only the whole scenario.
For instance, the collected data may show that “Mr.
Brown” and “Mr. Red” are both linked to Phone “1234”.
“Mr. Red” may also be linked to Address “Central” which
is also linked to Phone “5678” which is registered to
“Mr. Anonym”.
Scope-OBSERVER, with the help of these data, can identify
an indirect link between “Mr. Brown” and “Mr. Anonym”.
As a result, Scope-OBSERVER identifies links between
entities distanced by different degrees of separation.
Scope-OBSERVER can cross check entities with watch-lists
and present those entities on the graph with a different
visual design. The relative weight of the links is automatically
set by the system as a weighted average of the criteria
according to the importance of each criteria which is
set by the user. These links can be color coded to indicate
the strength of the connection. Scope-OBSERVER can also
include only those links that meet a minimum strength
threshold which is set by the user. Additional criteria
can be defined by the End-User using Scope-CONFIG.
