Join us at leading industry events and webinars to explore the latest technological
developments and investigation best practices.
Webinar
In July 2021, the EU put forward a radical set of proposals to overhaul their AML/CTF regime. As the plan nears full approval and implementation, we look at its potential impact and implications for how firms should identify and manage AML, CTF, sanctions and other forms of financial crime risk, and what value OSINT technologies can bring.
This webinar is a must-attend for financial crime investigations and intelligence professionals who want to gain a better understanding of these measures and learn how to implement practical changes to ensure compliance with the new regime.

Fraud is costing the UK billions of pounds a year, and pressure on government and law enforcement to change this has never been higher. But can OSINT really be used to fight fraud effectively?
In this short webinar for public sector investigators, we’ll explore how and why OSINT is an essential tool in the fight against fraud. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn:

Wildlife trafficking crimes are damaging to everyone. They disrupt fragile ecosystems, spread diseases and will eventually lead to the extinction of some species. What’s more, the individuals behind wildlife trafficking are often using it to support further criminal activity – such as drug trafficking, people trafficking or even terrorism.
For stretched law enforcement teams with limited resources, tackling the criminal networks behind these crimes can seem unrealistic. But through coordination and collaboration between the private sector, NGOs, and law enforcement , enabled by OSINT tools and techniques, fighting these networks is possible.
Webinar
Recent EU rulings on data privacy have been widely perceived as a reversal of the trend towards more open data. Yet these rulings come at a time when access to data is more important than ever: compliance professionals are facing increasing demands to enforce sanctions, stop financial crimes and hold corrupt regimes accountable.
In this webinar, Dun & Bradstreet’s Neil Isherwood and Blackdot Solutions’ Antonia Edmunds will explore the challenges of balancing data privacy and compliance effectiveness and explore how Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) can help plug data gaps for compliance teams.
Webinar
How are you countering modern criminal threats? And what role does OSINT play in your operations? In this webinar, seasoned OSINT expert Nico Dekens, and experienced investigator and CEO of Blackdot Solutions Stuart Clarke will explore how OSINT can be used to counter serious and organised crime.
Webinar
The complexity of sanctions regimes means that screening against lists no longer guarantees compliance - but what else can organisations do?
In this webinar, OpenSanctions and Blackdot Solutions will introduce the concept of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) : the use of publicly available data to draw actionable intelligence on people, companies and more.
We brought together investigators, intelligence professionals, compliance and financial crime fighters to discuss how Open Source Intelligence is evolving, best practices for its use in every sector and how new technologies can support investigators in overcoming common OSINT challenges.
