OSINT Specialist & Intelligence Analyst — CEO of Tactical OSINT Academy, Lead Trainer at OSINT Industries.
Known in the community as C3n7ral051nt4g3ncy / OSINT_Tactical. I train law-enforcement and corporate teams worldwide, build open-source investigative tools, and support real investigations — from missing-persons work to locating high-profile criminals.
With OSINT Industries I have delivered bespoke OSINT training to hundreds of specialised police and intelligence operatives across 13 countries — hands-on, real-case driven, and never one-size-fits-all.
Delivered to national police, cyber units, prosecutors and intelligence operatives — including child-protection and anti-trafficking contexts.
Through Tactical OSINT Academy, hundreds of French Police and Gendarmerie officers, military personnel and Interpol have been trained.
