Jane van Tienen and Kylie Pert, Hosts
From info to insight: An OSINT journey
This season we’ve explored open-source intelligence across a broad spectrum – we’ve heard how it’s applied in banking, pharmaceutical companies, journalism and more. We’ve delved into the importance of creativity, communication and tradecraft in OSINT.
While interviewing leading OSINT minds Cameron Mitchell, Alisa Gbiorczyk, Gordon Farrer, Nikki Rutman and Gus Kangas, hosts Jane and Kylie have solidified something that they both already believed – the power and possibility of OSINT is infinite.
Listen to our season finale to hear Jane and Kylie's favourite bits from the season, and reflections on the importance of OSINT.
