Modern social media tools now provide the means to quickly influence large groups of people to take action. This has sparked movements that at times have turned violent and pose significant threat. There is a critical need to quickly collect and interpret data on the socio-economic trends that move a population.  ECI applies its automated learning and data processing techniques for monitoring social media to detect threats related to politically and socio-economically relevant grievances. This involves continuous data collection and maintenance of historic data trends, as well as network

analysis to observe and determine cultural paradigm shifts.  This type of solution also applies to the detection and prediction of medical disease outbreaks and other emerging threats.  Information is provided to the user via intuitive geo-visualization and other customizable interfaces.
