Attivio Government Solutions offers high-performance and cost-effective approaches to the complex challenges related to the variety, velocity and volume of information that government agencies and their associated defense and aerospace industry partners are tasked with collecting, managing and acting upon. Leveraging the ability of Attivio's Active Intelligence Engine™ (AIE™) to bring the power of unified information access to the front lines of decision making, AGS will service a wide range of users faced with managing exploding volumes of information across a diverse array of information grids, segregated information silos and far-ranging systems that add layers of operational complexity and opaqueness.

"For our rapidly-expanding customer base in government, intelligence and law enforcement, the challenge of managing extreme information is even more critical due to the immensely high stakes involved," said Ali Riaz, President & CEO at Attivio. "When lives are at stake, there is no margin for error of delayed response. David brings his rich experience and proven ability to understand their mission challenges and problems to the conversation – we are confident that his perspective and insight will translate to broader deployment of Attivio's solutions across this sector."

Commenting on his new role, Woroboff said, "By combining information across diverse systems, Attivio delivers tremendous value to customers, helping them transition from isolated legacy technologies to modern, fully-integrated information systems. This net-centric approach improves information flow, shortens critical timelines and provides an affordable migration path to meet future requirements."
