Introduction to Open Source Intelligence for Maximum Results

In-Person - 3 Days

When conducting open source intelligence targeting and collection, we must ensure our efforts support stakeholder’s intent, the impact the collection will have on the business, and any potential business and technology shifts the results may produce.

One of the main benefits of open source collection is the ability to share our findings with internal and external partners. We can benefit greatly from information exchanges that foster a common view of the operating environment while building trust through sharing.
