OSINT Policy Template

Investigators around the world are increasingly relying on open-source intelligence (OSINT) to drive better decision-making. However, the management and application of OSINT can vary widely across organizations and industries, leading to potential inconsistencies, confusion, and legal risks.


To help address the growing need for standardized OSINT processes and best practices, Skopenow developed a sample OSINT policy for organizations seeking to standardize their use of OSINT while minimizing risk. 


Skopenow's draft policy can serve as a helpful starting point but it is not a one-size-fits-all policy. Furthermore, this policy template is not a legal document and does not represent legal advice or guidance, and it should be modified to meet the specific needs of each organization.
