What You Need To Know About Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) For Emergency Preparedness

Have you ever stopped to consider the volume of new data created daily on social media? It’s staggering. Take Twitter, for instance. Approximately 500 million tweets are published every day, adding up to more than 200 billion posts per year. On Facebook, users upload an additional 350 million photos per day, and on YouTube, nearly 720,000 hours of new video content is added every 24 hours.
While this overwhelming volume of information may be of no concern to your average social media user posting updates to keep up with family and friends, it’s of particular interest to corporate security and safety professionals who are increasingly using it to monitor current events and detect potential risks around their people and locations—all in real-time. Meet the fast-paced and oft-confusing world of open-source intelligence (OSINT).
What is Open Source Intelligence (OSINT)?
The U.S. Department of State defines OSINT as, “intelligence that is produced from publicly available information and is collected, exploited, and disseminated promptly to an appropriate audience to address a specific intelligence requirement.”
The concept of monitoring and leveraging publicly available information sources for intelligence purposes dates back to the 1930s. The British Broadcast Corporation (BBC) was approached by the British government and asked to develop a new service that would capture and analyze print journalism from around the world.
Monitoring and identifying potential threats
Originally named the “Digest of Foreign Broadcast, the service (later renamed BBC Monitoring which still exists today) captured and analyzed nearly 1.25 million broadcast words every day to help British intelligence officials keep tabs on conversations taking place abroad and what foreign governments were saying to their constituents.
OSINT encompasses any publicly accessible information that can be used to monitor and identify potential threats
Today, OSINT broadly…

Researchers Hid Malware Inside an AI’s Brain


This is straight out of a sci-fi novel. Researchers created a proof-of-concept technique that let them hide malware inside of an AI’s neurons to avoid detection.

According to the paper, in this approach the malware is “disassembled” when embedded into the network’s neurons, and assembled into functioning malware by a malicious receiver program that can also be used to download the poisoned model via an update. The malware can still be stopped if the target device verifies the model before launching it, according to the paper. It can also be detected using “traditional methods” like static and dynamic analysis.

BioConnect collaborates with HID Global to bring authentication to its HID Mobile Access solution


BioConnect announced a collaboration with HID Global to bring authentication to its HID Mobile Access solution alongside a mobile survey option for wellness declaration for employee health status and activity logging.

BioConnect expands the options for HID Mobile Access users with enterprise issued biometrics or multi-factor authentication right from their mobile device with the BioConnect Mobile Authenticator to meet new and more stringent compliance requirements. With BioConnect, HID Mobile Access users can access high-risk spaces, such as data centers, data cages and nuclear facilities.

The BioConnect Mobile App with the HID Mobile Access delivers exact identity assurance with an indisputable and easily available audit trail. System administrators choose how they would like their users to authenticate at each entry point; including two factor authentication with IT trusted authenticators or, for more complex security requirements, with biometrics.

BioConnect gives HID Mobile Access users the power to choose their biometrics – or, for high-security transactions, the enterprise can make the decision with selective modality authentication.

Not only will HID Mobile Access users have additional capabilities to access secure spaces, but they will also be armed with a Health and Wellness Declaration to affirm employee health before entering buildings. This step-up will require users to confirm their current health, allowing access to healthy users and keeping out the risk of users who may have come into contact with the COVID-19 virus.

“Bringing together HID’s world renowned mobile access solution and BioConnect’s enterprise grade biometric authentication platform, customers can be assured that they will be able to support a variety of authentication levels regardless of location, whether that be the front lobby for high-throughput, or the organizations critical data infrastructure, where risk-mitigation and compliance is paramount,” says Pritesh Patel, Director, Trust AI at BioConnect.

“The collaboration with BioConnect underscores our commitment to offering customers a broad range of options for convenient and secure access control. HID Mobile Access continues…
