In this episode of Unspoken Security, host A.J. Nash sits down with Ramesh Rajagopal, Co-Founder and CEO of Authentic8, to discuss the evolving landscape of digital investigations. They explore how modern intelligence teams navigate the deep and dark web, conduct secure open-source research, and protect themselves from exposure. Ramesh shares how his platform, Silo, empowers analysts by providing anonymity, obfuscation, and productivity tools to streamline investigations without compromising security.
The conversation dives into the challenges of direct engagement with cybercriminal environments, the risks analysts face when conducting investigations, and how organizations are shifting towards more proactive intelligence programs. A.J. and Ramesh also discuss the growing adoption of digital investigation tools in the commercial sector, spanning industries from financial services to corporate security and brand protection.
AI’s role in intelligence work also takes center stage, with insights on how automation can assist analysts without replacing human expertise. The episode closes with practical recommendations for organizations looking to strengthen their intelligence operations while balancing security, efficiency, and long-term strategic growth.
