Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT)
Cybersecurity
Open-source intelligence (OSINT) is the practice of collecting and analyzing publicly available information—such as social media, public records, news, and websites—to produce actionable intelligence. It is used by cybersecurity professionals, law enforcement, journalists, and private investigators to research threats, verify facts, or profile individuals and organizations without using covert or classified methods. Skilled OSINT practitioners rely on specialized search techniques and tools to piece together information scattered across the open internet.
