Intersec was founded in 2004 by Yann Chevalier, Jean-Marc Coïc and Olivier Guillaumin.[4][5] In its initial years, it was mainly known for its texting software developed for telecom operators.[4][6] The company has since expanded its operations and now develops software applications that process big data from telecommunications operators internationally for activity and mobility insights on people and devices.[7][8][9]
In May 2022, Intersec deployed the FR-Alert system, which sends emergency notifications to mobile phones in areas affected by disasters or attacks in France.[1][10]
In 2023, Intersec became a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to further adoption of early warning systems. Intersec is also a member of the European Emergency Number Association (EENA).[11]
As of 2024, Intersec is available in more than 50 countries and has processed metadata of nearly 1 billion devices.[12]
Intersec's location platform combines multiple location technologies to determine device location with an accuracy of a few meters in urban areas.[13]
