Cobwebs visual link analysis tool enables investigators to find and visualize real-world relationships between pieces of information from various sources located on the web in an organized, dynamic graph.

Investigators rely on big data collection and analysis for getting actionable Intelligence to wrap up their investigations.

When collecting these huge volumes of OSINT data, link analysis is needed to visualize the digital footprints that e.g., a stranded or missing natural disaster victim or a threat actor leave behind.

Advanced visual link analyses reveal and visualize hidden and connected web data and present it as a map displaying influencing nodes and social communities to reveal patterns.

Link analysis is therefore crucial, even more so since the volume and complexity of the online data to be collected and analyzed keeps growing and growing.

To conclude, timeline visualization and link analysis enable analysts and investigators to get a clear insight into vast amounts of collected big data.
