360/OS: A 360 degree experience on all things open source

BERLIN, Germany – 360/OS is the first symposium of its kind to bring journalists, activists, business professionals, and policymakers together to harness the power of open source, social media, and digital forensic research. These new tools provide access to once-inaccessible regions; they identify the once-unidentifiable and discern the previously indiscernible.

At 360/OS the cross-sectoral network of “Digital Sherlocks” will create and cultivate techniques needed to expose falsehoods and fake news, document human rights abuses, and report the actuality of global events in real-time.
