Finding Publicly Available Information
Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) is the systematic collection, evaluation and analysis of publicly available data to extract valuable and relevant information.
OSINT collects, evaluates and analyses publicly available information to identify potential gaps in customer security. It is not just about collecting information, but about turning it into practical measures.
We use OSINT to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers. These can include exposed employee contact details, documents about configuration errors or information about critical systems shared on social media. As part of information security, OSINT acts as our "first eyes and ears", alerting us to potential risks both inside and outside the organisation.
Managing the big picture
The information collected in OSINT is combined with other security tools and reports to provide a broader picture of potential intrusion patterns and to help prioritise the right protection measures.
Managing public information
OSINT provides a constantly updated view of what information about your organisation is circulating in public data sources. This improves reputation and credibility, and helps brand management by knowing what information is visible.
Threat prevention
The service identifies potential attackers, finds out the tactics they use and identifies information about our organisation that could be used by attackers. This means we are ready to respond to threats before they escalate.
Building competitive advantage and trust
A well-executed OSINT process ensures that an organisation's customers and partners can have confidence in their security. In addition, understanding the publicly available information of competitors can help create new business opportunities and differentiate you in the marketplace.

Structuring and filtering the data collected so that it is easily usable.
Evaluate and input processed data, draw conclusions and create reports.
Sharing the information produced with those who need it to support their activities.
From a cyber-attack perspective, open source intelligence (OSINT) can be an attacker's tool for target mapping. For example, an attacker can use OSINT to identify vulnerabilities, analyse user profiles and map systems.
From a defence perspective, OSINT helps organisations to identify public information related to their infrastructure that could be exploited by attackers. This information supports an organisation's ability to protect itself effectively and reduce security risks.
