This course is designed for investigators and analysts seeking to sharpen their ability to uncover risks and threats in the digital landscape. You'll learn how to leverage open-source intelligence (OSINT) to detect fraud, foreign influence operations, and supply chain vulnerabilities. The training includes instruction on conducting deep due diligence on businesses, with a capstone project focused on investigating either a suspicious investment entity or a front company trafficking in illicit goods. You’ll also explore how threat actors exploit the online environment, and how to monitor their behavior and tactics effectively. Additional modules cover intermediate geolocation techniques, advanced domain analysis, and research methods for navigating threats across foreign social media platforms.
