How global events impact us all: using OSINT to get ahead of corporate security challenges in Ukraine

Description:

As war broke out in Ukraine, teams globally needed to react, pulling out staff and redirecting supply chains. Open source intelligence (OSINT) practices have had a powerful impact on our understanding of the conflict - everything from the safety of evacuation corridors to military advances to infrastructure damage. What can we learn from Ukraine? How can we better respond to crises globally in future?

Topics Included:

• How can you tap into existing open sources? 
• What in-house resources can help you confidently act on available information? 
• How can OSINT help you understand the impact to your organization during a developing complex event - on supply routes, on infrastructure, on your teams and assets?

After attending this presentation, you will understand:

• How to categorize OSINT practitioners
• How to vet individual online accounts 
• How to verify content from specific events to help support risk assessments and decisions making during a crisis
