Cross-agency intelligence,
without a central data pool.
Trace Mesh lets participating agencies find where their interests overlap while each keeps its raw intelligence inside its own environment. The network answers whether a match exists; a human reviewer decides whether anything is shared.
There is no central pool of raw operational data. Each participating agency retains sovereignty over what it holds and what it discloses.
Match across agencies. Keep control of your data.
Trace Mesh is built around a single principle: agencies gain the benefit of comparing notes without surrendering their holdings to anyone else.
Cross-agency matching
Identify where partner holdings overlap with your own subjects, entities or identifiers, across organisational and jurisdictional boundaries.
No central data pool
Raw intelligence never leaves each agency's environment. Nothing is copied into a shared warehouse or vendor-held store.
Source-controlled disclosure
The owning agency decides what, if anything, is disclosed once an overlap is found. Discovery of a match does not compel release.
Human-controlled escalation
Human approval governs every disclosure. No case material moves from one agency to another automatically.
Full audit
Every query, match and disclosure decision is recorded in a tamper-evident audit trail on each participating side.
Participating-agency sovereignty
Each agency governs its own participation, retention, access and policy. Joining the network changes none of that.
Ask the network, not the data.
The three forces keep their data local; the mesh establishes whether an overlap exists without centralising anything; and a human authorises any disclosure, which returns through the forces' existing lawful sharing channels.
Each force keeps its source data
Holdings stay within each force's own sovereign environment. Mesh does not copy, centralise or ingest the underlying case.
The network answers overlap, not content
A query establishes whether two forces hold something in common, without exposing the case that sits behind it.
A human approves any escalation
An indicated match is a prompt for a person to consider, not an automatic exchange. Nothing passes to a partner unless a reviewer approves it.
Escalation follows existing routes
Where a disclosure is approved, it proceeds through the forces' established lawful sharing channels, not around them.
Privacy-preserving by design.
Matching uses privacy-preserving techniques so that agencies can test for overlap without revealing their holdings to one another or to the vendor. Disclosure is graduated: an indicated match reveals only that a comparison warrants human attention, and each further step is separately, deliberately authorised.
This page keeps the cryptographic detail brief on purpose. A technical brief covering the matching protocol, threat model and assurance approach is available on request.
Privacy-preserving matching
Overlap is tested without either side exposing the underlying records.
Graduated disclosure
A match indicates attention is warranted; content follows only with approval.
Human at every gate
Each escalation step is a recorded, human-authorised decision.
Audited on both sides
Queries and decisions are logged in each agency's own tamper-evident trail.
Runs alongside your existing environment, under force control.
Trace Mesh is deployed next to an existing Trace Vantage instance, or alongside a standards-compliant intelligence system, within each participating agency's own environment. It operates under force control and inherits the same identity, access and audit discipline.
Alongside Trace Vantage
Attaches to an existing Vantage instance without pooling its data elsewhere.
Or a standards-compliant system
Participates alongside an intelligence system that meets the required standards.
Under force control
Each agency governs its own participation, keys, retention and policy.
Within your environment
Deployed inside the agency's infrastructure, consistent with its sovereignty posture.
Compare notes across agencies, on your own terms.
