We build the intelligence layer of the physical world.
01Who we are
Who we are
CIA — Central de Inteligência Artificial — is a technology company based in João Pessoa, Brazil. We started by running security operations in real environments — and from that experience began building the software and intelligence that were missing.
02What we build
What we build
Proprietary operational intelligence platforms, infrastructure integrated in the field and an Operations Center that turns events into action — plus a research program in autonomous robotics.

03How we think
How we think
Operations first. Every technology we create starts with a problem observed in the field, is validated in our own operation and only then reaches clients. We prefer evidence to promises.
04Research & Development
Research & Development
We invest in computer vision, edge AI and mobile robotics, in collaboration with academic researchers, so the next generation of solutions is tested from day one.

Our story
From an electronic-security enthusiast to an artificial intelligence company.
Jailson Florentino de SousaFounder & CEO
01 · The origin
A passion for electronic security
CIA grew out of the career of Jailson Florentino de Sousa. Before the company existed, he was already building CCTV, access-control and perimeter-protection projects — learning in the field what works and what fails in real operations.
02 · The turning point
Meeting computer vision
Drawn to computer vision, he decided to take the next step: rather than simply installing cameras, build the intelligence that understands what they see — and turns images into decisions.
03 · The investment
His own effort and resources
He invested his own effort and resources to make it happen: he set up an Operations Center, developed proprietary platforms and built a research and development lab in João Pessoa.
04 · Today
Technology from Northeast Brazil to the world
CIA brings together artificial intelligence, computer vision, access control, automation and an autonomous robotics program — and is beginning to connect with technology ecosystems in Europe and Asia.
Purpose
Mission
To turn physical environments into intelligent, secure and traceable operations — bringing together technology, people and governance.
Vision
To be a Brazilian benchmark in intelligence applied to the physical world, taking technology built in Northeast Brazil to the world’s leading innovation ecosystems.
Values
01
Evidence before promises
We don’t claim what we can’t prove.
02
Privacy and compliance by design
Data protection and regulation considered from the first line of every project.
03
Operations as a laboratory
What we offer clients, we run ourselves first.
04
Engineering without shortcuts
The right architecture is worth more than the most expensive device.
05
Responsibility to people
Technology serving those who live and work in the places we protect.
06
Continuous evolution
Every operation teaches us something that becomes part of the product.
From Northeast Brazil to the world
Technology built in João Pessoa.
CIA was born and operates in Northeast Brazil. From João Pessoa, Paraíba, we develop our platforms, integrate field infrastructure and run our Operations Center — and from here we reach out to Europe and Asia.

Security & Privacy by Design
Security and privacy by design.
We handle image, access and identity data with the rigor it demands.
01
LGPD
Processing guided by legal basis, purpose limitation and data minimization.
02
Access control
Least privilege: each person accesses only what their role requires.
03
Data protection
Protected communications, environment segregation and retention policies.
04
Auditing
Operator and system actions logged and searchable.
05
Traceability
Evidence with cryptographic hashes and integrity verification.
06
Governance
Documented protocols, defined owners and continuous review.
CIA does not claim certifications it does not hold. Privacy documentation available upon request.
