On December 2, 2024, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) unveiled a groundbreaking standard that reshapes how open-source intelligence (OSINT) is cited and verified. This game-changing approach ensures that publicly available and commercially available information meets rigorous standards for accuracy and reliability.  With the global OSINT market projected to reach $36 billion by 2030, this standard paves the way for its evolution into the intelligence discipline of first resort.

Gearing up for the Big Game in a few weeks? High-profile sporting events are increasingly being targeted by those seeking to cause disruption or harm. One recent example is the 2024 Paris Olympics, which faced more than 140 cyberattacks that were thwarted due to the French authorities’ able management. Protecting sports franchises, team members, fans and venues is complex due to the diverse range of potential threats. These include physical assaults, cyberstalking, doxing, credential theft, impersonation, extortion and reputation damage. But, as Babel Street’s Pat Butler explains in this recent article from Security Magazine, there are an increasingly broad range of intelligence tools and services authorities can use to keep our sports venues and events safe. https://lnkd.in/ext_RyyD
