So far we’ve concentrated on people, but the same process applies to companies. Running
credit checks, corporate due diligence and audits are normal, but what about the business
leaders and their teams, how will they fit in, how do their connections fit in, how does the
corporate world view them, is the decision good for your reputational future? Athena can

search open source databases for articles that have been published over time about the
company and its business leaders. Information on key players including directors and major
shareholders may help to build up an overall picture painted in the final report that will allow
you decide whether to proceed or not.

There are many lesser OSINT tools in the marketplace that do some of what Athena does.
We think this can be a very dangerous thing. Dangerous, because it’s more likely that half
a picture can either lead you down the wrong path or be less useful in making the right
decision. Athena looks at every aspect, including sophisticated facial recognition software to
check out whether the person in the social media photo posts appears under other aliases.

For the slightly more technical, Athena is a complete end-to-end solution that collects,
analyses and reports. It provides automatic profiling whilst collecting vast amounts
of information from social networking, forums and blogs with integrated dark net
accessibility. What makes it unique is its robustness, being highly responsive during
complex big data analysis and its innovative virtual HUMINT approach. Additionally, its
comprehensive network source anonymisation and encryption is second-to-none.
