Digital Analytics for Countering Foreign Adversarial Propaganda
Contract Opportunity Analysis
The Department of State’s Office of Policy, Planning, and Resources for Public Diplomacy is seeking information from technology and data access providers for digital analytics and secure browsing capabilities to help counter foreign adversarial propaganda. The requested solutions should support analysis of open-source and social media data, identification of influence networks, digital media forensics including deepfake detection, assessment of links between online activity and real-world behavior, and secure web browsing with managed attribution for open-source research. Important requirements include FedRAMP compliance, global internet access, encryption, audit logging, near-real-time querying with translation, narrative visualization, tailored dashboards, and user-friendly interfaces with support. This is a Request for Information only and does not constitute a solicitation or accept proposals, and vendors must submit responses through the specified Microsoft Forms link rather than by email, with concise answers of 800 words or less per question.
