The J2X team has decades of experience in identifying, assessing, and mitigating complex risks for the US government and private corporations. Comprised of elite former military officers, federal law enforcement officers, and intelligence analysts, they specialise in areas such as supply chain risk, insider threat, due diligence, and geopolitical risk. They have helped organisations to minimise losses, de-risk global operations, identify emerging threats, and streamline security.

Combined with Adarga’s cutting-edge AI platform – built to enrich and accelerate intelligence outputs with state-of-the art information analysis capabilities – the J2X team’s unique skills and expertise will enhance Adarga’s existing risk intelligence services. They will also inform its continuously evolving product roadmap and reinforce Adarga’s competitive position in the market as it delivers organisational resilience to some of the world’s most demanding customers in the face of increasing competition.

The acquisition supports and accelerates Adarga’s expanding US growth, marked by recent contract wins with the Defence & National Security community. The combination of the two companies will deliver added value to J2X’s existing customers by leveraging Adarga’s technology and its proprietary curated data sets, enabling the team to rapidly interrogate, contextualise and connect millions of global data points to derive valuable insight and foresight into near and long term threats.

“Joining forces with Adarga represents a significant milestone for J2X Solutions,” noted Chris Gore, J2X’s President. “Our longstanding commitment to providing strategic risk intelligence aligns perfectly with Adarga's industry-leading approach to information analysis. Our combined strengths will deliver enhanced intelligence capabilities to our customers and enable them to counter an ever-growing number and range of threats.”
