Dataminr, a leading AI company, and Genetec Inc., a provider of enterprise physical security software, have collaborated to bring real-time, AI-powered event and risk intelligence into organizations’ physical security environments.

Breaking down data silos while building consistent threat response

Through a new unified solution for external risks and internal controls, users can eliminate silos and blind spots, enabling them to respond more quickly and consistently to emerging threats. It empowers security teams with early warnings of risks and safety events, enhancing situational awareness and enabling more proactive security measures to better protect people, facilities, and business continuity.

Together, Dataminr’s AI platform, which delivers early warnings of emerging events and risks from public data, will unify with Genetec’s physical security software, enabling security teams to integrate external risk signals with internal security controls into a single platform.

By combining these solutions, security teams can stay ahead of emerging risks with enhanced real-time situational awareness, contextual intelligence to reveal incident impacts and interdependencies for improved decision-making, and automated workflows that accelerate security responses. 

“Security teams are inundated with information from disparate systems, making it difficult to identify and respond quickly to genuine threats,” said Matt Harrell, chief partner officer at Dataminr. “Our collaboration with Genetec solves this by delivering the earliest possible indications of emerging risks directly into the platform security teams are already using. This real-time intelligence provides the context needed to make faster, more confirmed decisions, transforming security operations from reactive to proactive when every second counts.”

How the integration works

This integrated, unified solution directly feeds real-time event and risk intelligence from Dataminr Pulse for Corporate Security into the Genetec Security Center.

Dataminr’s AI platform then analyzes multimodal data from more than one million public sources, including images, audio, video, and text in over 150 languages across 220 countries and territories. The analysis identifies high-impact events, including active assailants, severe weather, public safety disruptions, and other potential business continuity threats.

The intelligence is then distilled into actionable, geotagged alerts that integrate seamlessly with the Genetec threat level management system.

Further, automated workflows and standardized operating procedures can trigger predefined responses based on incident type, automatically locking doors, sounding alarms, redirecting camera feeds, or implementing other responses to ensure speed across an organization’s entire footprint. Security teams can focus more on relevant events as a result of this collaboration, maintaining real-time situational awareness without switching between systems.

“Integrating Dataminr’s real-time AI-powered alerts into our unified security platform gives our customers a more complete and actionable view of their threat landscape,” said David Grey, director of strategic alliances at Genetec. “This collaboration empowers security operators to correlate external events with their internal security systems, resulting in a more efficient, proactive, and intelligent security operation that is better equipped to protect against the ever-evolving range of risks to an organization’s people, facilities, and business continuity.”

Collaborating on AI-driven security

Dataminr has established strong partnerships in 2025, collaborating with organizations on AI-driven security solutions.

The organization recently expanded its collaboration with World Wide Technology (WWT), an IT solutions provider, to enhance security operations through a unified, AI-powered decision-support system and a next-generation SOC experience.

“This partnership brings together two organizations deeply committed to innovation and operational excellence,” said Ted Bailey, the CEO and founder of Dataminr. “Dataminr’s AI platform acts as a real-time decision support system, while WWT’s unique integration and delivery capabilities ensure that customers can fully realize its value– from the SOC to the boardroom.”

The combination will establish a unified cyber-physical platform, providing an integrated approach to managing digital, physical, and operational threats in real-time. Organizations will be enabled to unify cyber, physical, and third-party risk intelligence through the partnership. Context Agents will provide novel Agentic AI capabilities to add real-time context around breaking events, risks, and threats.

“WWT is constantly pushing the boundaries of what’s possible through AI and digital transformation,” said Jim Kavanaugh, the CEO and co-founder of WWT. “Partnering with Dataminr helps us elevate our ability to deliver an end-to-end, AI-enabled security platform that meets the complex challenges our customers face today– and prepares them for what’s next.”

Dataminr also announced a new global partner program this year, providing a path for partner revenue, simplified reward-for-value structure, tiered benefits, and streamlined sales and marketing tools. Learn more about this program and the companies already involved in it.
