Quintessence of OSINT in Fostering Robust National Security
摘要
In an era marked by digital transformation and rapid information proliferation, Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) has become a cornerstone of modern national security strategy. This paper investigates the evolution, application, and integration of OSINT with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to build resilient security frameworks for National Security. Emphasizing the case study of Bangladesh recent crisis, the study examines how OSINT can serve as an early-warning tool providing critical indicators. The paper is an endeavor to recommend future research directions to harness OSINT’s full potential while ensuring ethical governance and protection of civil liberties.
