Authentic8 Renews Gold Sponsorship of the OSINT Foundation

We are pleased to announce that Authentic8 has renewed its Gold sponsorship. Corporate sponsors support the mission of the Foundation, which is to promote the OSINT tradecraft, elevate the discipline, and develop the practitioner community to advance the national security of the United States. Our sponsors enable the Foundation to provide opportunities for OSINT practitioners to grow through forums, continuing education, promulgating OSINT best practices, developing professional certification standards, and recognizing performance excellence.

Authentic8 is the company behind Silo for Research, a purpose-built solution for conducting OSINT investigations anonymously and securely. The cloud-based platform ensures sensitive online research is never attributed back to an analyst’s organization or exposed to cyberthreats. Silo for Research is used by more than 600 organizations in the public and private sectors to safely pursue investigations wherever they lead across the surface, deep and dark web.

“The OSINT Foundation embodies our shared vision of leveraging open-source intelligence to drive meaningful impact and enhance decision-making processes,” said Authentic8's Chief Customer Officer Matt Ashburn. “Together, we can unlock the vast potential of publicly available information, empowering policymakers with actionable insights and strategic advantage. By fostering innovation, collaboration and knowledge exchange, we can shape a future where OSINT becomes an indispensable tool for navigating our complex world. Authentic8 is honored to support the Foundation and looks forward to driving positive change together.”

Barbara Alexander, president of the OSINT Foundation, commented, “We appreciate Authentic8’s continued support and commitment to the OSINT Foundation through its Gold sponsorship renewal. Its tools are valuable assets to OSINT practitioners and the company’s subject matter experts are engaged and active partners with our members. Our industry sponsors are a vital component of the Foundation’s growth and mission to support the practitioner community, and we look forward to another year of working together with Authentic8, providing excellence and impact across the breadth of open-source intelligence activities.
