Open-Source Intelligence Platform for Investigations and Threat Analysis

ShadowDragon is an open-source intelligence (OSINT) software company that helps organizations turn publicly available data into actionable investigative insight. Its flagship Horizon platform unifies three workflows: Identity for rapid triage of a subject, Investigate for link analysis and mapping networks of associates, and Monitor for ongoing tracking of public sources. The platform automates collection and correlation across billions of data points while supporting unattributed searching that protects an analyst's identity during sensitive work.

The company's tooling extends beyond the core platform. SocialNet maps connections across dozens of social networks and surfaces identities, associates, and geographic signals, and is also available as an API for integration into existing systems. MalNet helps incident responders and threat analysts identify and visualize malware infrastructure, while OIMonitor focuses on dark web monitoring and online investigation, collecting data to spot trends and correlate emerging threats across difficult-to-reach corners of the internet.

ShadowDragon serves law enforcement, government agencies, corporate security, fraud and risk teams, finance and insurance, and cyber threat intelligence professionals. The company emphasizes ethical OSINT practices, stating it avoids mass scraping and hacking, and it maintains SOC 2 Type II certification. Founded in 2016 by Daniel Clemens as a spinoff of his Packet Ninjas consultancy, ShadowDragon positions its products as a way to accelerate high-impact investigations while keeping data sourcing transparent and compliant.
