  • Happy holidays to Zara Lachlan as she crosses the Atlantic! 🎄 As we approach the holidays, team samdesk sends well wishes to the incredible Zara Lachlan, who's braving the Atlantic Ocean on her solo rowing expedition. 🚣♀️ 🌊 We're proud to sponsor Zara's inspiring journey. To protect her on this record-breaking journey, samdesk's AI-powered crisis detection platform is closely monitoring maritime incidents across the Atlantic, providing critical situational awareness to Zara and her team. Earlier in her journey, our system detected a potential maritime hijacking situation off the coast of Morocco. Thanks to our early warning, Zara adjusted course as the Royal Moroccan Navy intervened. The incident was resolved, and Zara's incredible expedition continued uninterrupted. While Zara celebrates her unique holiday season at sea, we’re cheering her on every step of the way. We’ve got your back, Zara! 👏 🎉 You can learn more about Zara's cause (Team Forces and Women In Sport) and donate here: https://lnkd.in/gf_HGtTT #ZaraLachlan #TeamForces #WomenInSport #SoloRow #AtlanticOcean #HolidaySeason #AI #CrisisDetection #samdesk

  • The evolving global landscape demands heightened awareness and proactive safety measures for organizational leaders and their teams. In a world where critical incidents can unfold without warning, every second counts when protecting people and operations.     Traditional information sources often leave organizations playing catch-up during emergencies. Real-time event detection has become an essential component of modern executive protection and organizational resilience – enabling rapid response when minutes, or even seconds, can make the difference.     Samdesk stands at the forefront of this mission, delivering instant alerts at the earliest signs of emerging situations. Our platform combines advanced detection capabilities with expert analyst verification, providing organizations with corroborated information and visual context for complete situational awareness. Trusted by industry leaders including Meta, Palantir, and Fidelity, we enable organizations to move from reactive to proactive risk management.     This isn't about technology – it's about empowering organizations with the immediate awareness they need to protect what matters most. When incidents can happen anywhere at any time, having verified, real-time intelligence is crucial for maintaining operational resilience and ensuring the safety of your people.
