Hala Systems is a social enterprise founded in 2015 that develops advanced technology to protect civilians in conflict zones. Its mission is to reduce violence and provide accountability through the creation of early warning systems and tools for documenting war crimes.

‍

The company's flagship product is Sentry, an AI-powered early warning system that predicts and warns civilians of impending threats, such as airstrikes. Sentry uses a network of remote sensors and real-time data to provide warnings, giving people crucial time to find safety. The system has been deployed in Syria, where it has been credited with significantly reducing casualties. In addition to its warning capabilities, Hala Systems also focuses on accountability, developing tools that allow for the secure collection of evidence of war crimes.

To ensure the integrity of the data collected, such as photos and videos of potential war crimes, Hala uses the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a tamper-proof and cryptographically secure record of the evidence. Each piece of media has its metadata logged on the Hedera network, creating a verifiable and immutable audit trail.
