With a strong presence in Fort Meade, Maryland, and Northern Virginia, Asymmetrik delivers leading open-source intelligence (OSINT) technologies to enable the collection and analysis of publicly available information (PAI). The Company has extensive experience developing applications across multiple domains including OSINT, artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), cryptocurrency, blockchain analytics, real-time streaming analytics, cybersecurity, and federated search. With over 120 employees based out of the Company’s Annapolis Junction, Maryland headquarters, Asymmetrik has developed a robust suite of solutions which the Company has successfully deployed across multiple agencies within the IC.
BlueHalo is a rapidly expanding national security platform with market-leading capabilities spanning directed energy, c-UAS, space superiority, space technology, advanced RF, autonomy, cyber, and SIGINT. The acquisition of Asymmetrik is highly complementary to BlueHalo’s Cyber and SIGINT franchise, providing differentiated software development capabilities underpinned by a culture of excellence in engineering. Further, this combination with BlueHalo creates a formidable player in OSINT technologies for the IC with a broad collection of products and capabilities that leverage PAI and complement National asset collection to create enriched data sets and actionable insights for intelligence professionals.
“Asymmetrik has built a world-class, mission-focused business on the foundation of its people and its culture. We could not be more thrilled to welcome the Asymmetrik team to BlueHalo as we bring our combined capabilities to bear solving some of the IC’s most challenging problems.
