Assessing employee risks using OSINT – forensically documenting publicly available threat intelligence
Where there are specific indications of a threat to staff, publicly available information may provide relevant clues for assessing the level of risk.
As part of existing security investigations, we carry out structured research into publicly available information relating to a specific threat situation.

Our services
We investigate publicly available information relating to a relevant threat situation and document the findings in a manner that is forensically verifiable for the client’s security assessment.
Typical areas of application
This is how an employee risk assessment is carried out
Publicly available sources are systematically examined for content relating to the relevant threat situation; any findings are documented in a forensically traceable manner, including the timestamp, source and context.
Why is the investigation into employee risks relevant from a forensic perspective?
Structured documentation of publicly available threat intelligence helps the relevant security officers to assess a security threat situation.
Furthermore, the forensically verifiable backup of such content is relevant in the event of a potential criminal complaint.
