OSINT for Critical Infrastructure Protection
Utilities, energy operators, and transportation systems face threats across nearly every risk domain — physical attacks on facilities, cyber targeting of SCADA systems, environmental activism, and geopolitical supply chain disruption. DigitalStakeout monitors across all of these domains from a single platform.
The Challenges Infrastructure Operators Face
Threats span every risk domain
A single utility faces physical security threats to substations, cyber attacks on operational technology, environmental activists targeting operations, regulatory changes, and geopolitical supply chain disruption. No single-domain tool covers this threat matrix.
You hear about threats from the news
When a threat actor posts reconnaissance photos of a substation on social media, or an activist group plans a protest at a facility, infrastructure security teams typically find out from news coverage — after the event. Continuous monitoring surfaces these signals early.
Enterprise tools weren't built for infrastructure
Most digital risk protection platforms focus on brand protection and cyber threats for tech and financial services. They don't classify threats to physical infrastructure, environmental risk, or public safety. Their classifiers don't know what matters to you.
How DigitalStakeout Serves Critical Infrastructure
DigitalStakeout's AI engine, DARIA, classifies threats across all 16 risk domains — from physical sabotage to cyber intrusion to environmental activism. One platform covers the full threat matrix that critical infrastructure faces.
Multi-Domain Threat Coverage
The platform classifies across Physical Security, Cyber Risk, Environmental Risk, Public Safety, Geopolitical Risk, Societal Risk, and eight more domains. One platform covers the full threat matrix infrastructure operators face.
Geo-Fenced Facility Monitoring
Location-based monitoring around specific facilities, substations, pipelines, and operational sites. Social media activity within a defined radius is collected, classified, and alerted on in real time for each protected location.
Dark Web & Cyber Intelligence
Monitors for references to infrastructure systems, stolen credentials, OT/SCADA targeting discussions, and access sales on dark web forums. Vulnerability monitoring tracks actively exploited CVEs relevant to industrial control systems.
Supply Chain & Geopolitical Monitoring
Monitors news, social media, and web sources for geopolitical developments, sanctions, and supply chain disruptions affecting infrastructure operations. The platform classifies these under Geopolitical Risk and Economic Risk domains.
Environmental & Regulatory Monitoring
Tracks activist campaigns, regulatory developments, and public sentiment related to infrastructure operations. DigitalStakeout classifies under Environmental Risk, Legal Risk, and Reputation Risk domains for comprehensive coverage.
Threat Scenarios Covered
Critical infrastructure requires the broadest domain coverage of any vertical. DigitalStakeout classifies intelligence across these priority domains — all included in every plan.
Physical Security
Facility sabotage, trespassing, attacks on substations, and intrusion signals.
Cyber Risk
SCADA/OT targeting, credential exposure, ransomware, and exploit discussions.
Environmental Risk
Activist campaigns, environmental incidents, and climate-related disruptions.
Geopolitical Risk
Supply chain disruption, sanctions, and foreign interference targeting operations.
Public Safety
Community safety around facilities, emergency events, and hazmat incidents.
Societal Risk
Protests and activism targeting operations, community opposition, and civil unrest.
Regulatory Risk
Compliance changes, enforcement actions, and regulatory developments affecting ops.
Economic Risk
Supply chain disruptions, commodity impacts, and economic instability signals.
These are a subset of DigitalStakeout's 249+ threat classifiers across 16 risk domains. See the full taxonomy →
Built for Your Mission
Infrastructure security teams use DigitalStakeout for facility monitoring, cyber threat early warning, and environmental activism tracking — all from a single platform.
Facility Security Monitoring
A utility company monitors public social media within geo-fenced zones around critical substations and operational facilities. The platform flags a post showing photos of facility infrastructure tagged with hostile commentary. Security assesses using Social Media Profile Search and escalates to physical security for increased patrols.
Cyber Threat Early Warning
Dark web monitoring detects discussions in an underground forum about vulnerabilities in a specific SCADA vendor used by the utility. Vulnerability monitoring confirms the vulnerability is being actively exploited. The security team works with OT/ICS teams to prioritize patching before the threat materializes.
Environmental Activism Tracking
An environmental group announces a planned "direct action" campaign against fossil fuel infrastructure on social media. The platform classifies the content under Environmental Risk and Societal Risk. Security teams monitor the campaign's development, identify planned protest locations, and coordinate with law enforcement.
Transparent Pricing for Regulated Industries
Entity-based pricing means each facility, asset, or person you monitor counts as an entity. Every plan includes the full platform — no feature gating, no hidden data costs, no per-module add-ons. Published pricing simplifies procurement for regulated industries.
All plans include intelligence across all 16 risk domains, dark web monitoring, OSINT investigation tools, and REST API access. Learn more about our platform or explore dark web monitoring.
What DARIA Monitors
Threats DARIA Detects for Critical Infrastructure
These are examples of the scenarios DARIA classifies automatically — anonymized, but drawn from the same 249+ classifiers that run against your entities.
“Unauthorized vehicle breached perimeter fencing at the Eastfield water treatment facility overnight.”
“Countdown started for [REDACTED] Corp. 72 hours remaining. 450GB exfiltrated. Negotiations have stalled.”
“CVE-2026-XXXX PoC now public. Affects all versions of [REDACTED] firewall appliance. RCE with no authentication required.”
“New route confirmed through the southern port. Customs contact is compromised. Weekly shipments starting next month.”
“Brush fire expanding near Highway 18 corridor. Mandatory evacuations for zones A3-A7. Wind shift expected at 4PM.”
“M5.2 earthquake detected 12 miles NW of Ridgecrest. Depth: 6.2km. Aftershocks expected. Infrastructure assessment underway.”
