OSINT Psychology: Understanding the Human Element of Intelligence Gathering
Although OSINT is a useful tool, it's important to keep in mind that humans are ultimately responsible for producing the information. As a result, OSINT investigators must be cognisant of the human biases and cognitive distortions that might influence OSINT data collection, analysis, and interpretation.
This presentation will provide OSINT investigators with a deeper understanding of the human biases and cognitive distortions that can influence their work.
Participants will learn practical strategies for mitigating these biases and distortions, as well as defending against social engineering attacks.
