Information security is an integral part of national security and is closely linked to open-source intelligence. Nowadays, this type of intelligence is relevant because sometimes the ability to obtain intelligence through closed sources is significantly limited. The information obtained in this way should be carefully checked and analyzed, compared with the information obtained through intelligence and vice versa. The considered advantages of open sources of information are that the risk of failure of the agent is excluded or considerable means and efforts for the search of such are saved.
