Surprised no-one&#x27;s mentioned wikileaks and the document leak [1] that exposed Palantir tendering to attack Assange&#x27;s org on behalf of some bank.<p><pre><code>  Combating this threat requires advanced subject matter
  expertise in cybersecurity, insider threats, counter
  cyber-fraud, targeting analysis, social media
  exploitation

  Palantir Technologies, HBGary Federal, and Berico
  Technologies represent deep domain knowledge in each
  of these areas

...<p><pre><code>  Feed the fuel between the feuding groups. 

  Disinformation. Create messages around actions to
  sabotage or discredit the opposing organization.
  Submit fake documents and then call out the error.

  Create concern over the security of the
  infrastructure. Create exposure stories. If the
  process is believed to not be secure they are done.

  Cyber attacks against the infrastructure to get data
  on document submitters. This would kill the project.
  Since the servers are now in Sweden and France putting
  a team together to get access is more straightforward.

  Media campaign to push the radical and reckless nature
  of wikileaks activities. Sustained pressure. Does
  nothing for the fanatics, but creates concern and doubt
  amongst moderates.

  Search for leaks. Use social media to profile and
  identify risky behavior of employees.

This seems to show Palantir expertise extending beyond data filtering, and was a big enough deal at the time for Palantir to publicly apologise and iirc lose a member of staff.<p>1: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wikileaks.org&#x2F;IMG&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;WikiLeaks_Response_v6.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wikileaks.org&#x2F;IMG&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;WikiLeaks_Response_v6.pdf</a>
