Company Snapshot: 

Verint is a company that provides domestic intelligence surveillance technology worldwide. The U.S. government is one of its customers. Veteran investigative journalist James Bamford, talking in an interview with Amy Goodman on Democracy Now! on October 14, 2008, named Verint one of the companies the NSA uses in its surveillance program at AT&T and Verizon. Bamford was discussing his forthcoming book: "The Shadow Factory: The Ultra-Secret NSA from 9/11 to the Eavesdropping on America."

"Two of its main domestic spying products are "STAR-GATE" and "RELIANT". The RELIANT system acts as a government agency's big ear, collecting and managing intercepted voice, e-mail, fax, SMS, data, chat, and Web browsing -- all on a single platform."
