Logically is a British multinational technology startup company that specializes in analyzing and fighting disinformation.[1] Logically was founded in 2017 by Lyric Jain and is based in Brighouse, England,[2] with offices in London, Mysore, Bangalore, and Virginia.[3]

History

 

Lyric Jain, who founded Logically in 2017,[4] said he was partly inspired by his grandmother's turn to misinformation before she died of pancreatic cancer.[5][6] A WhatsApp group that spread misinformation led her to replace "her cancer medication in favour of unproven, alternative treatments."[5] He also witnessed the spread of misinformation in Britain around the time of the Brexit referendum.[6]

 

An MIT grant helped launch the company.[6] Logically first operated solely from Britain, employing 30 British residents by 2019.[7] In early 2019, the company expanded to India, recruiting 40 employees who perform most of the company's fact-checking.[7] In its 2019 seed round, Logically raised $7 million.[7] In 2020, it raised another €2.77 million,[8] including from the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund and XTX Ventures.[9] As of 2020, Logically had 100 employees.[10]

 

In July 2020, the International Fact-Checking Network certified Logically as a fact-checker. The certification was renewed in September 2021 and January 2023.[11]

 

In June 2023, The Daily Telegraph reported that Logically was paid more than £1.2 million by the UK government to analyse disinformation terms online alongside its partnership with Facebook. Such topics included narratives pertaining to the COVID-19 pandemic, including "anti-lockdown" and "anti-COVID-19 vaccine sentiment".[12]

Operation

 

Logically says it uses artificial intelligence to initially filter claims, saying that they use "AI to run claims through a database of previously checked facts, and assign a score of how likely that claim is to be accurate, based on past claims and the credibility of its source". After this "matching process", human employees use their judgment to assess whether they believe claims to be true or false.[6]

 

In March 2021, Logically launched a service named Logically Intelligence (LI), which is aimed at helping governments and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to identify and counter online misinformation. The service collects data from thousands of websites and social media platforms, then analyses it using an algorithm to identify potentially dangerous content and organise it into narrative groups.[13]

 

From August 2020 to June 2022, Logically offered a browser extension to help users check the credibility of online articles and fact-check claims.[14][15][16]

Investigations

 

Logically helped The Guardian disprove claims by an English pastor that 5G technology was connected to vaccination tracking.[14] Logically is one of many companies hired by TikTok works to curtail disinformation on the social network.[17][18][19] The New Yorker noted its tracking of disinformation related to healthcare and the COVID-19 pandemic.[20]

 

In August 2021, researchers at Logically identified the prominent QAnon influencer GhostEzra as Robert Smart, an evangelical Christian from Florida.[21][22][23] GhostEzra was prominent for promoting antisemitic conspiracy theories[21][22] and sharing the neo-Nazi propaganda film Europa: The Last Battle in QAnon communities.[24][25]

 

The BBC has cited Logically's research in tracking the rise of pro-Russian accounts linking Ukraine to Nazi ideology following the 2022 Russian invasion of the country.[26]

 

In August 2023, the company reported on a Chinese disinformation campaign related to the discharge of radioactive water at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. According to The New York Times, Chinese state media did not spread false information but did omit crucial details.[27][28][29]

Supporting Election Integrity

Logically has worked as a globally trusted

partner on threats stemming from

mis-and-disinformation related to election

integrity since 2019.

The following is an overview of Logically’s work on election

integrity, as well as an assessment of potential future issues that

could arise globally.

Executive Summary

Using our AI-powered platform (Logically Intelligence ® ), an expert team of analysts,

and a global team of data scientists, Logically provides regular reporting and

situational awareness to stakeholders in the elections community.

Logically has worked with partners on election integrity since 2019 in the following

contexts:

-

-

-

-

US Federal and state elections (2020 & 2022))

US midterm elections (2022)

India’s local elections (Maharashtra 2019, Karnataka 2023)

India’s general election (Lok Sabha 2019)

Additionally, Logically has provided expert analysis on potential threats stemming

from mis-and-disinformation related to elections in Nigeria , Turkey , Argentina ,

Hungary , and more.

Logically has focused on potential threats to the electoral process, election facilities,

election officials, and narratives that have the potential to erode trust in the

democratic process, in an attempt to strengthen election integrity around the world.

Logically assesses that future elections will see increased risks from globalized

narratives, expan

 

Threats to Election Integrity

Around the world, threats consistently emerge to the electoral process. Following the

COVID-19 pandemic, threatening mis-and-disinformation narratives seem to be

emerging at an increasing rate globally.

Logically is committed to helping ensure election integrity by addressing threats to:

-

-

-

-

-

Election locations (voting centers, ballot storage facilities)

Election infrastructure (drop boxes, voting machines)

Election officials (Secretaries of State, local election officers)

The electoral process (vote counting, vote certification)

Elections in the United States

Since 2020, Logically has worked with partners in the elections space, at a state level,

federal level, and in the private sector, to ensure an appropriate response to threats

that could impact election integrity.

During the 2020 presidential election , Logically worked at the state level to ensure

threats to officials and the process were monitored. A key element of this work

required the establishment of strategic partnerships with law enforcement and

federal agencies to ensure threats were appropriately managed.

In 2022, Logically became a member of the US Election Infrastructure Information

Sharing & Analysis Center (EI-ISAC), and now regularly contributes to tabletop

exercises and conversations surrounding the potential impact of threats emerging

mis-and-disinformation on the election process.

During the 2022 midterm elections , Logically worked with various levels of partners

in the election space ranging from state-level organizations to nonprofits to identify

threats to the election process and officials. In the period prior to and directly

following the midterms, Logically operated a focused threat monitoring effort in

direct communication with law enforcement.

As the 2024 presidential election approaches, Logically has established itself as one

of the leaders in advising on threats to the election process and officials posed by

emerging mis-and-disinformation narratives.

U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on InvestigationsStatement for the record byBrian Murphy, September 11, 2023 Thank you for the opportunity to speak with the committee today. Before I begin, I will offer my qualifications. In 2021, I retired from federal service and joined Logically AI. The company’s focus is to identify, at the speed and scale required, hostile influence operations occurring on the internet. Many of these are generated by nations. My position at Logically is the Managing Director for the company's U.S. operations. For this role, I maintain a Top Secret security clearance. Additionally, I teach a master’s level course on domestic intelligence at Georgetown University. Before joining Logically, I served as thePrincipal and Acting Under Security forIntelligence for DHS (2018 to 2021).Among my job requirements was to identify foreign actors attempting to influence the homeland covertly. Before DHS, I was a special agent with the FBIfor approximately 20 years. While there, I performed duties from street agent up to roles as a national manager. I ran multiple programs looking at the intersection of behavior and hostile activity. I began my federal service in 1994 as a United States Marine Corps officer. To augment my work, I obtained a Ph.D. from Georgetown University, a Master of Arts from Columbia University, and a Bachelor of Arts from the College of William and Mary. In my research, I focused on how foreign adversaries have conducted covert operations in the U.S. In 2023, I published a book on the topic, Foreign Disinformation in America and the U.S. Government’s Ethical Obligations to Respond. I have also published several papers and speak regularly about the topic. Some of my testimony is lifted directly from published works.

DHS whistleblower testifies before House Intelligence Committee

 

Brian Murphy appeared behind closed doors on Capitol Hill Friday.

Catch up on the developing stories making headlines.

 

A former senior Department of Homeland Security intelligence official who accused agency leaders of downplaying the threat of Russian election interference and white supremacist groups, appeared on Capitol Hill Friday to testify to lawmakers behind closed doors.

Whistleblower details alleged politicization of intelligence at DHS

 

Brian Murphy, the former chief of the DHS intelligence agency, filed a 24-page whistleblower complaint over the summer accusing DHS leadership including former Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and Acting Secretary Chad Wolf of trying to "censor" and "manipulate" intelligence for political purposes, in the months ahead of the presidential election.

Murphy claimed that he was instructed by Wolf "to cease providing intelligence assessments on the threat of Russian interference in the United States, and instead start reporting on interference activities by China and Iran."

 

The request, according to Murphy's complaint, originated with White House National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien.

 

He also said he was told to align intelligence assessments with President Trump's public comments about the threat of left-wing extremists, amid national protests over police brutality and racial inequality following the death of George Floyd

 

Murphy was initially asked to testify before the House Intelligence Committee in September, but the session was stalled over a dispute about Murphy and his legal team's access to classified information relevant to his complaint. He was scheduled to appear before the committee for a staff-led interview Friday morning.

 

Reassigned from his role at the DHS intelligence agency in August, Murphy still works at the department.

 

A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson did not respond to a message from ABC News seeking comment, but the agency "flatly" denied Murphy's claims as outlined in the whistleblower complaint.

Today Logically announced that Brian Murphy, Acting Under Secretary for Intelligence at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), will be joining the company as its Vice President of Strategic Operations.

 

In his new role,Murphy will work with US government agencies, companies, civil society groups, academia, and NGOs to help combat misinformation and disinformation at scale.He joins the company with a wealth of experience to lead and expand Logically’s threat intelligence business in the US.

 

Having spent twenty-six years in federal service, Murphy has dedicated his career to fighting local, national, and international threats to US security, including violent extremism and influence operations. This includes setting up the first counter-disinformation program at DHS, which for the first time brought actionable intelligence to election officials, local governments, the business community and policy makers.Since its founding in 2017, Logically has been working with governments around the globe, including federal and state agencies in the US, to combat misinformation and disinformation using a combination of artificial intelligence and human expertise.

 

During my career I have seen firsthand how disinformation and misinformation pose an existential threat to our society, and I share Logically’s ongoing and earnest desire to make a real difference," said Murphy. “My new position allows me to continue to contribute to the fight against these corrosive threats with a company that has the advanced tools needed to do so at speed and at scale. I look forward to working with multiple government bodies, companies and other affected organizations to help them tackle these issues with greater impact."

 

 

Misinformation and disinformation threatens communities, governments and economies with its rapid online spread, across areas that include national security, election integrity, and public health. Logically has taken on this complex ecosystem with an industry-leading threat intelligence team and platform capable of identifying, analyzing and counteracting online threats at scale. The company currently works with government agencies across three continents.

 

 

Brian Murphy’s distinguished career in intelligence, and lifelong dedication to tackling these important issues in federal service roles is unparalleled, and will significantly enhance our ability to counter misinformation and disinformation,” said Lyric Jain, founder and CEO of Logically. “Our mission to reduce and eventually eliminate the real world harms caused by the current information crisis is a global one, and we could not have hoped for a better candidate to lead these efforts in the US.”

 

Most recently serving as the Acting Under Secretary for Intelligence at the DHS, Murphy’s DHS career saw posts including the Chief Intelligence Officer, Chief Information Sharing Officer, and the Chief Counterintelligence Officer with oversight of approximately 250,000 personnel. Prior to joining DHS, Murphy was a highly decorated FBI agent having spent 20 years at the agency. At the time of his departure, he was responsible for federal criminal, counterintelligence, and counterterrorism programs at the national level, as well as creating novel solutions to counter disinformation.

 

An adjunct professor at Georgetown University, Murphy teaches classes on how to counter disinformation, and is pursuing his PhD, also at Georgetown, on the topic of “ethical responsibility in the executive branch of countering disinformation.”
