How did a journalist find out who was responsible for bombing hospitals in Syria without leaving his desk in New York? How can South Sudanese activists safely track and detail the weapons in their communities, and make sure that global audiences take notice? How do researchers in London coordinate worldwide work uncovering global corruption? What are policy makers, lawyers, and intelligence agencies doing to keep up with and make use of these activities? In the Age of Google, threats to human security of every kind are being tracked in completely new ways. Human rights abuses, political violence, nuclear weapons deployments, corruption, radicalisation, and conflict, are all being monitored, analysed, and documented. Though open source investigations are neither easy to conduct nor straightforward to apply, with diligence and effort, societies, agencies, and individuals have the potential to use them to strengthen human security. With the rapid development of technology, the creation of the internet, the introduction of social media and the proliferation of media outlets and mechanisms for transmitting information (and disinformation), the challenge facing analysts has shifted from how to collect data to how to process it. It is becoming critical for OSINT analysts to be equipped with high-value skills related to linguistics, tradecraft and technical programming to be able to turn such data into meaningful analytical insights. Tools that have previously been available only to government intelligence agencies are now becoming widely accessible to the public, either for free or for a price (such as the newspaper content behind paywalls). This opens the OSINT field to a broader audience, from the private business sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to individual researchers and hobbyists.
