Open source intelligence (OSINT) is the practice of collecting information from published or otherwise publicly available sources. OSINT is in many ways the mirror image of operational security (OPSEC), which is the security process by which organizations protect public data about themselves that could, if properly analyzed, reveal damaging truths. IT security departments are increasingly tasked with performing OSINT operations on their own organizations to shore up operational security. Using the right OSINT tool for your organization can improve cybersecurity by helping to discover information about your company, IT assets that could be exploited by an attacker.”]
