The Nsight Series: Introducing MA Case Studies
Ever wonder if it’s really possible to be anonymous online? Or why dark web markets get seized? Or how social media platforms detect disinformation campaigns? The Ntrepid Nsight Series provides answers to these questions and more.
The Ntrepid Nsight Series is a new product line from Ntrepid Academy, our cyber solutions center of excellence. Each Nsight paper will examine real world case studies to highlight the managed attribution (MA) and operational security (OPSEC) lessons learned that you need to consider as you operate online.
Managed attribution (MA) is the process of controlling the technical and behavioral indicators that comprise your online identity (or attribution).
Managed Attribution: The Foundation for Effective Online Operations
The first entry into this series is a primer on managed attribution. We all know that websites, social media platforms, and other online entities are collecting information about us while we’re online, but what information are they collecting? What are they doing with it? What risks does this introduce to our online operations?
Our paper, Managed Attribution: The Foundation for Effective Online Operations, answers these questions and provides an introduction to Ntrepid’s MA Framework, which is a valuable resource for any investigator, analyst, or online operator.
