Open Source Intelligence (OSINT)

Open-source intelligence (OSINT) is the practice of analyzing how unauthorized parties, such as competitors or malicious individuals, could gather information that has been left unsecured and is freely accessible to everyone, and then reporting the cause-and-effect relationships behind that exposure. In short, it shows you what the outside world can already learn about you, and what that knowledge could be used for.

With 32 years of experience and knowledge, DEF24 protects its customers from the problems that can arise when open-source information, accessible online without any criminal act, is used in activities such as hacking, doxing, social engineering, and competitor, location, and advertising analysis. By understanding these techniques from the attacker's side, we help you close the gaps before they are ever exploited.

Gathering open-source intelligence only through familiar networks such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google is far from enough, because thousands of companies around the world track and record information through countless other channels. DEF24 maps the entire internet profile of its customers and strengthens the protection of your personal and corporate identities by helping you suppress the information and documents you would rather keep out of public reach, so that your digital footprint reflects only what you choose to share.
