OSINT Services

Attackers learn a lot about an organisation before they ever touch a system. Our OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) services show you exactly what’s publicly visible about your business or key individuals, so you can reduce exposure, strengthen defences, and stay ahead of targeted attacks.

Why having an OSINT Service is critical

Much of the information attackers use is already publicly available. Without visibility of this exposure, organisations and individuals often underestimate risk. An OSINT service helps identify what can be learned from open sources, enabling organisations and individuals to reduce unintended information leakage, strengthen defences and prevent targeted attacks before exploitation occurs.

Exposure Awareness

OSINT reveals what sensitive information is publicly visible and accessible to attackers.

Targeted Attacks

Understanding exposed data helps prevent phishing, impersonation and social engineering campaigns.

Reputational Risk

Publicly available information can be misused to damage credibility, trust or professional standing.

Pre‑Attack Insight

OSINT identifies risks before exploitation, allowing defensive action ahead of active attacks.

Third‑Party Leakage

Information shared by partners, staff or suppliers can unintentionally increase exposure without oversight.

Personal Safety

For individuals, OSINT highlights privacy risks that could enable harassment, fraud or identity abuse.

CyberAscend forms the DNA of our OSINT services

CyberAscend gives our clients confidence by providing clarity on what to expect and where they are on their journey.

Initiate

We begin by agreeing objectives, scope and sensitivity. This may include organisational exposure, key individuals, brands or digital assets. Rules of engagement are defined to ensure all activity uses legitimate, open sources only and aligns to privacy, ethical and assurance expectations.

Discover

During Discover, we conduct structured open‑source intelligence gathering across public data sources. This reveals what attackers could learn without breaching systems, including digital footprint, exposed information, relationships and patterns that increase susceptibility to targeted or social attacks.

Remediate

We support remediation by identifying what information should be reduced, corrected or better protected. Guidance focuses on practical steps such as tightening public profiles, improving communication practices, and reducing unnecessary digital exposure that could be exploited by attackers.

Confirm

In the Confirm stage, changes made to reduce exposure are reviewed. Where appropriate, follow‑up OSINT checks validate that sensitive information has been removed, corrected or made harder to misuse, providing confidence that remediation has delivered measurable reduction in exposure.

Continue

Public exposure changes constantly as organisations, people and online activity evolve. Through CyberAscend, OSINT becomes a repeatable activity, supporting ongoing monitoring, awareness and risk reduction, helping organisations and individuals stay ahead of targeted attacks and unintended information leakage.

We offer both Organisation and Personal assessments

D2NA offers OSINT assessments for both organisations and individuals. Our organisational assessments identify publicly exposed information that could be exploited to target systems, brands or staff, while personal assessments focus on the digital footprint of key individuals. Both services provide clear, ethical insight into real‑world exposure using legitimate open sources only.
