OSINT Education Spotlight: IoT Telemetry

An emerging area of interest in OSINT collection is telemetry data from devices and machines.

- Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of interconnected devices featuring sensors, software, processing capabilities, and other technologies that communicate with each other and the cloud. The cloud, in this context, refers to servers accessed over the internet that host software and databases in data centers located worldwide.
- IoT telemetry refers to the data generated by these connected devices (such as urban traffic monitoring data or data from coastal Automatic Identification System receivers) that are available for free or by purchase or subscription from commercial vendors. There are many emerging use cases for publicly available IoT telemetry data in OSINT, particularly in terms of automated collection, for gaining unique insights into patterns of life, operational environments, and real-time events.
- IoT telemetry may be available for internet collection, automated collection, and purchase of CAI.
