OSS.Net Announces Twenty-Company Team Dedicated to Information Operations and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT)

OSS CEO Robert David Steele Vivas, international proponent for intelligence reform, information operations, and
open source intelligence (OSINT), has today announced the formation of a twenty-company team dedicated to Information Operations (IO) and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT).

"Under the inspired leadership of L-3 communications (GSI Tampa) and CISCO (Application Oriented Network), two other multi-billion dollar companies, two medium companies, and fourteen small businesses have come together to create an architecture that allows for near-real-time monitoring of all foreign language information, in all languages, all the time, both online and, where desired, off-line. This includes oral presentations such as sermons, and street-talk.

"In January 2006, at the Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner, we will be presenting these capabilities for the first time in public, at IOP '06, a conference that brackets our traditional focus on OSINT with a new emphasis on
IO and on Peacekeeping Intelligence (PKI). All vendors, both U.S. and foreign, are invited to exhibit. Our central concept, the creation of an international Open Source Information System-External (OSIS-X) is open to all who wish to offer information under secure conditions enabling trusted exchanges and sharing for free or for fee.

"Also in January we will publish 'INFORMATION OPERATIONS: All Information, All Languages, All the Time -- The New Semantics of War and Peace, Wealth and Democracy.' Available now in monograph form at the IOP '06 home page, the book will add an index, an annotated bibliography, and technical information.

"Our White Paper -- the intellectual property of OSS.Net -- has been in the hands of the appropriate U.S. Government authorities for some time, and is now circulating among selected foreign governments interested in sponsoring regional multinational early warning and information-sharing centers and networks. We are also engaging the most important non-governmental organizations (NGO).

"We strongly support the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence (USDI) focus on Joint Intelligence Operations Centers or Commands (JIOC) with full access to relevant open source information, and we are prepared to provide such centers with both access, and with integrated man-machine foreign language translation and integrated statistical and predictive analysis as well as responsive iterative modeling and simulation using real-world data.
