Information, analysis and action.
At Kriteria, we apply the most advanced investigative intelligence methodologies to collect, analyse, and interpret information from both open and confidential sources.
Our aim is to provide verified, useful data to inform strategic decision-making and mitigate economic, reputational or legal risks.
We integrate OSINT (Open Source Intelligence), SOCMINT (Social Media Intelligence) and GEOINT (Geospatial Intelligence) techniques to observe and understand behaviours, relationship networks and hidden dynamics, turning fragments of information into operational knowledge.
It is an investigative discipline that allows information to be collected and analysed from open and non-classified sources such as websites, public archives, databases, the press, the deep web and social networks.
Kriteria uses a structured method of searching, verifying and correlating data to transform fragments of information into strategic analyses.
SOCMINT is the discipline that analyses these footprints by collecting information from social networks, forums, communities and online platforms.
Our investigations combine semantic analysis, the study of digital behaviours, and predictive intelligence to create a realistic and accurate profile of the subject of interest.
GEOINT focuses on analysing location data to observe the movements, habits, and behavioural patterns of people or vehicles.
Using GPS monitoring technologies, drones and advanced sensors, Kriteria collects and interprets geospatial information ethically and in compliance with current regulations.
The theft and resale of corporate data, credentials, counterfeit goods, and illegal services on the Darknet are constantly rising.
Thanks to our proprietary platform for capturing and analysing unindexed data, we can monitor Dark Web networks in real time and identify:
We evaluate the credibility and consistency of a subject by monitoring public and social information to prevent risks to their image or behaviour.
We identify links, financial movements and operational connections to protect corporate or personal interests.
We conduct in-depth analyses of the economic, ethical and reputational reliability of companies and individuals. This is useful for mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and partnerships.
Kriteria’s pre-employment investigations allow companies to verify the personal and professional backgrounds of candidates, thereby preventing infiltration risks, conflicts of interest and falsified qualifications and references.
The process involves using the NOVRAM (Non-Verbal Response Analysis Method) methodology to conduct targeted interviews and detect non-verbal micro-signals that may indicate inconsistencies or omissions.
CV investigations confirm the veracity of the information declared by the candidate and identify discrepancies. The process is divided into several phases:
Initial CV screening with consistency and language analysis
Verification of educational qualifications with institutions and universities
Verification of work experience and positions held
Reference checks with former employers
OSINT/SOCMINT analysis of databases, press reports, and social networks.
Drafting of the final report with a reliability assessment summary
The result is a documented, real-time snapshot of the candidate that can be used to inform strategic HR decisions and avoid reputational or economic risks arising from ill-considered hiring.
Kriteria carries out asset investigations and assessments to trace the economic goods and assets of individuals or legal entities in Italy and abroad. Through targeted assessments, the assets, income, financial resources and financial relationships of individuals or organisations are identified.
The goal is to provide a clear and documented framework for:
debt recovery and third-party garnishments
solvency and commercial reliability checks
pre-contractual evaluations and economic due diligence
support for legal or arbitration proceedings
These analyses combine economic and financial intelligence tools, database access and open-source intelligence (OSINT) techniques to ensure accurate, up-to-date results.
