Cognyte

Cognyte develops and sells intelligence and investigative analytics software to government agencies and law enforcement. Its core products include surveillance and monitoring platforms designed for mass data collection, analysis, and predictive analytics. The company’s technology is built for deployment by third parties, primarily state security services.

The company has faced specific, grave allegations regarding its operations in Myanmar. According to investor documentation, Cognyte is implicated in allegations of potentially aiding and abetting crimes against humanity through the provision of surveillance technology that could facilitate human rights abuses against the Rohingya population. The company has also been cited for a lack of transparency, having not responded to investor guides on these high-risk human rights issues. This pattern of supplying advanced surveillance tools to regimes engaged in severe rights violations, coupled with non-disclosure, demonstrates a material risk of complicity in systemic harm.
