SpiderFoot is an open-source OSINT automation platform for reconnaissance, threat intelligence, and attack-surface discovery. It collects and correlates data from more than 200 modules and numerous public or API-based sources. Users can investigate domains, IP addresses, subnets, ASNs, email addresses, usernames, phone numbers, people, and cryptocurrency addresses. It runs through a web interface or command line and stores results in SQLite for custom querying. Scans can uncover infrastructure, breaches, exposed services, social accounts, metadata, and dark-web references. Results can be visualized, correlated with configurable rules, and exported in formats such as CSV, JSON, and GEXF.

SENTINEL is an open-source behavioral intelligence platform for detecting child grooming on digital platforms. Released by Sentinel Foundation in April 2026, it analyzes patterns of user behavior over time rather than scanning message content for keywords, identifying grooming sequences before direct harm occurs. Key capabilities: - Behavioral scoring across four signal types: linguistic register shifts, relationship graph evolution, temporal escalation patterns, and fairness gates - Tamper-evident audit logs (cryptographically chained, 7-year retention) for legal proceedings and regulatory compliance - Privacy-preserving federation: platforms share encrypted threat signatures without exposing raw messages or user identities - Demographic parity audits enforced as a deployment gate before any detection model goes live - Built-in compliance for EU Digital Services Act, UK Online Safety Act, COPPA, and GDPR Free for organizations under $100k annual revenue and all non-commerci
