SocialNet and Horizon for Ethical OSINT in Diverse Missions

ShadowDragon is an Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) SaaS-based company. ShadowDragon's Horizon link-analysis platform and SocialNet collection capability, together, performs live automated searches against more than 550 publicly available data sources with more than 1,500 endpoints, including social media, forums, dark web, breach data, and so much more. Our suite of tools enables teams to query email addresses, phone numbers, names, aliases, phrases, GPS coordinates, companies and receive results in seconds. This allows users to collect, correlate, and visualize information from desired online sources within an anonymized, secure, online environment. No clunky software installs, no coding required. Traditional investigations of this nature take significant manpower, require knowledge around open-source intelligence tradecraft and take hours, if not weeks, to complete.

SocialNet and Horizon enable governments, military, intelligence, law enforcement and commercial organizations to anonymously and ethically leverage social media data and publicly available information to conduct deep research and link analysis in support of their investigations. ShadowDragon's suite of tools are used by hundreds of clients and thousands of end users supporting mission critical task across governments and the private sector. SocialNet and Horizon, paired together, is used for a wide variety of law enforcement investigations at the federal, state, and local level – homicide, narcotics, gangs, counterterrorism, human trafficking, human trafficking, countering child exploitation, locating runaways, real-time incidents, auto theft, physical security around large events, fraud, mobile forensics, cyber investigations, counterintelligence, insider threat, and confidential informant vetting.

To ensure ShadowDragon is not in violation of any privacy laws nor involved in predictive policing every investigation and query needs to have a starting point for our live and in near-real time capability.
