This is where we shall share a few products we have made for our customers.
OSINT Resource Discovery Toolkit
Also known as Reuser’s Repertorium, the toolkit contains hundreds of links to important and useful Internet resources, not just the World Wide Web, but also FTP, NNTP and Tor. Obviously, to open any Tor website one needs to use the Tor browser (http://torproject.org).
The Repertorium is updated on a regular basis. Stay tuned and let me know your thoughts.
The Repertorium is availabe at http://rr.reuser.biz

Papers
The RIS Open Source Intelligence Cycle / Arno H.P. Reuser
Journal of Mediterranean and Balkan Intelligence. – Vol. 10, no.2 (2017). – p. 29-43
The intelligence cycle is widely known and used in intelligence studies to explain the intelligence production process, however, the cycle in its classical shape and format is not adequate anymore for the current age. The information landscape has changed drastically, source analysis has become much more important than it already was, the communication circle has changed, the phrase “analysis”
is misused and most importantly of all: the concept of customer or client is non-existent in any intelligence cycle. This paper proposes a radically changed
intelligence production cycle that at least for Open Source Intelligence processes works much better, where the customer is in the middle, the phrase “analysis” replaced by “synthesis”, and where the production speeds is seriously increased
by replacing the cycle by a propeller.
Review of the Reuser’s Information Services OSINT Pathfinder course / Efren Torres-Baches
Journal of European and American Intelligence Studies. – Vol. 1, no. 1 (2019). – p.
”As an intelligence professional, the learning and education never ends. I am always looking for the next best training course or for information that would enhance my current set of skills.
At the same time, while there are few honest companies, such as Reuser’s Information Services, that provide amazing content for an honest price, there are also other companies that, unfortunately, provide weak intelligence training at a very high price. It is my opinion that intelligence training should be honest, passionate, with applicable knowledge and with the best interest of the client.
There are companies out there that provide OSINT training and try to entice potential customers behind an approach that claims to provide world-class training by former Intelligence Community personnel. To the reader I ask, if you have attended one of these very expensive OSINT training courses, how much of it were you able to honestly include (short-term and long-term) within your day-to-day operations? Was it sustainable after a year or two?
OSINT training should be reasonably priced, and the Reuser’s Information Services Pathfinder OSINT course is one of the best, if not the best. As an intelligence professional and global OSINT instructor, I highly recommend and personally endorse this course.”
