Person of Interest Wiki

Relevant numbers are Persons of Interest whose Social Security Numbers were officially produced by the Machine after determining that those individuals would pose a threat to national security.

Whenever sufficient intel has been collected, the Machine would insert "relevant" information into briefing reports destined for FBI or NSA executives without the knowledge or consent of the person who created the original report.

A team of ISA agents is then dispatched to neutralize the threat.
