It’s on your LinkedIn profile, and in your latest tweet. It’s on your organization’s public-facing website, and in your company’s latest quarterly report. It starts with a simple Google search and grows from there. It’s everything anyone could find out about you and your organization, available through open-source intelligence, or OSINT.

What is OSINT? 

According to the CIA, open-source intelligence (OSINT) is information “drawn from publicly available material.” OSINT information is intended for public knowledge and is accessible without any specialized skills, tools, or subscriptions. This includes newspapers, magazine articles, social media platforms, public records websites, and more. In other words, OSINT is a phrase used to describe information obtained from non-classified sources. 

Whether you realize it or not, that seemingly trivial social media post or information available online can have major security consequences. Even a simple picture, location tag, or team event on social media could contain sensitive information that a threat actor can exploit.

But before you click back to check on those Facebook pictures you posted from last week’s office potluck, let’s talk about Fortalice OSINT Training.
