Improved Incident Investigations to deliver powerful post-FNOL intelligence

We're continually improving the training we deliver our team to ensure our clients can make the best decisions possible.

Here at NetWatch, we recognise the importance of keeping up with emerging trends to deliver the best intelligence possible through our Incident Investigations. With the digital landscape constantly evolving, it is crucial that our team are equipped with the most advanced techniques possible for gathering comprehensive information on an incident’s circumstances, identifying the individuals involved, and locating key witnesses.

To ensure we continue to deliver unparalleled intelligence for our clients we have revamped our Incident Investigation training program to ensure analysts are equipped with the necessary skills for effective investigations.

Whats does the enhanced OSINT incident investigation training programme cover?

The refreshed training program integrates emerging digital platforms that are relevant to Incident Investigations. This includes social media networks and community-based websites where individuals may share information about incidents, or their involvement in them. Two major sources of information in this context are Strava and Nextdoor. By staying informed about these platforms, analysts gain valuable insights into potential eyewitness accounts, photos, videos, and other relevant details that significantly contribute to gathering extensive information for our clients.

Our training program also emphasises advanced OSINT techniques like deep web research and social media keyword analysis. These techniques empower our analysts to quickly and effectively extract valuable information from publicly available sources, including news articles and social media platforms such as the increasingly popular TikTok. By leveraging these techniques, NetWatch’s analysts can effectively trace key witnesses and other involved parties, and provide comprehensive information to clients regarding an incident’s circumstances.

How do NetWatch ensure analysts can find what our clients need?

At NetWatch, we prioritise ongoing professional development and encourage continuous learning and collaboration among our analysts. We’re always on the hunt for new and emerging OSINT techniques and tools, and are always exploring innovative approaches to our investigations. By fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing, we ensure our analysts stay at the forefront of open source investigation. This is why we’re the best in the business at providing first-on-the-ground insights into incidents, however big or small.
