We offer OSINT products and services tailored to your needs. Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) refers to the collection and analysis of publicly available information from various sources such as the internet, social media, news portals, academic publications, and government reports. For companies, organizations, and decision-makers, OSINT is crucial for identifying opportunities and potential threats early, assessing risks, and making informed decisions.
The importance of OSINT for security lies in its ability to help prevent or mitigate cyberattacks, physical dangers, industrial espionage, insider threats, and reputational damage. Furthermore, OSINT supports companies in preparing for Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) by identifying relevant market information and risk factors. It can also assist in selecting suppliers or service providers and improve the early detection of issues in the supply chain.

Early warning systems: Identifying emerging threats such as cyberattacks or geopolitical risks.
