Human Safety Intelligence: A Multi-Source OSINT Framework for Detecting Cross-Border Crime Targeting Travelers

Human Safety Intelligence (HSI) is a real-time, multi-source OSINT framework designedto detect, map, and forecast cross-border crime risks affecting international travelers. Criminalnetworks that target foreigners operate across multiple countries, using encrypted applications,mobility infrastructure, and social engineering tactics. Traditional safety systems—governmentadvisories, law enforcement channels, embassy alerts—are too slow, fragmented, and reactiveto keep pace with modern exploitation networks. This whitepaper introduces a unified modelintegrating open-source signals, geospatial clustering, behavioral analysis, and network infer-ence to generate actionable early warnings without relying on classified information or statesurveillance.
