Bob Gourley writes much better content than he does titles: Osama Bin Laden Letters Analyzed: A rapid assessment using Recorded Future’s temporal analytic technologies and intelligence analysis tools. (Sorry Bob.)

The Analysis Intelligence site provides open source analysis and information on a variety of topics based on the the temporal analytic technology and intelligence analysis tools of Recorded Future. Shortly after the release of 175 pages of documents from the Combatting Terrorism Center (CTC) a very interesting assessment was posted on the site. This assessment sheds light on the nature of these documents and also highlights some of the important context that the powerful capabilities of Recorded Future can provide.
The analysis by Recorded Future is succinct and well done so I cite most of it below. I’ll conclude with some of my own thoughts as an experienced intelligence professional and technologist on some of the “So What” of this assessment.
If you are interested in analytics, particularly visual analytics, you will really appreciate this piece.
Recorded Future has a post on the US Presidential Election. Just to be on the safe side, I would “fuzz” the data when it got close to the election. 😉
