The branch of OSINT, known as Social Media Intelligence (SMI), refers to the collectives tools and solutions that allow organizations to monitor social channels and conversations, respond to social signals and synthesize social data points into meaningful trends and analysis based on the user’s needs. SMI tools enable intelligence gathering from social media sites, using both intrusive or non-intrusive means, from open and closed social networks.
Workshop participants will learn OSINT methods and data mining software tools and how to use them to navigate unruly and fast changing landscape of social media.

Only 15 percent of marketing managers and PR professionals effectively monitor Social Media Intelligence and only 6 percent are familiar with media monitoring and analysis tools.
This workshop will equip PR professionals and marketing managers with the hands-on skills and best practices and best-of-breed tools to monitor social media and run efficient OSINT operation.
