Overview

Your guide to cutting-edge information collection

Open-source intelligence (OSINT) is a rapidly evolving approach to collecting information via the Internet, much of which isn’t indexed by normal search engines.

Written by career intelligence analyst Stewart K. Bertram, this title is a comprehensive guide to data collection, helping you gather intelligence and protect your business from cyber attacks.


From reading this book, you’ll:

  • Master the tools and investigative approaches needed for conducting research within the surface, deep and dark webs
  • Find out how to scrutinise criminal activity without compromising your anonymity – and your investigation.
  • Understand the relevance of cyber geography and how to get around its limitations.
  • Get to grips with useful add-ons for common search engines, as well as metasearch engines.
  • Learn about deep-web social media platforms and platform-specific search tools, detailing such concepts as concept mapping, entity extraction tools and specialist search syntax (Google kung fu).
  • Get comprehensive guidance on Internet security, and how to strike a balance between security, ease of use and functionality.
  • Gain tips on counterintelligence, safe practices and debunking myths about online privacy.

What can OSINT do for you?
