Abstract: The article examines the importance and application of open source intelligence tech-nologies (OSINT) in today's digital age. OSINT is defined as the systematic process of gathering and analysing information from open sources to draw informed conclusions and make effective decisions. The application of OSINT-technologies is becoming an integral part of the strategic analytical process in areas such as cyber security, intelli-gence, law enforcement, intelligence and public safety. The main focus of the study is a specific aspect of this broad spectrum – the OSINT Framework, which is a set of tools and resources for collecting and analysing infor-mation from open sources on the Internet. Using this framework allows us to study, monitor and analyse a variety of data to identify patterns, trends and potential threats. The article defines the purpose of scientific research and in-depth analysis of OSINT, in particular the OSINT Framework, with the aim of understanding its structure, func-tionality and effectiveness in solving tasks in the field of intelligence, cyber security and data analysis. The overall state of OSINT-technologies is defined by a wide variety of tools, including social networks, geospatial analysis, textual and visual information analysis, data mining platforms, and ethnographic analysis. The use of scientific methods and tech-nologies in this area allows you to optimize the processes of data collection and analy-sis, providing more insights for making informed decisions. Keywords: OSINT; OSINT Framework; Open source; Data collection and analysis
